Depends, Roller. Apparently people used to transcribe William Shakespear's plays and then sell the transcripts - but probably the answer you're looking for is Bob Dylan's unreleased recordings that came out on the bootleg 'Great White Wonder'
Lord Acton ...but the first place I saw it was on Northwick Park Roundabout written on some hoarding But I think that actually said "Power corrupts, but absolute power is rather quite neat" (Trying to defuse the situation here )
Easy one to Google Three new cities have been created to celebrate the Queens jubilee last year, one in England,o ne in Scotland and one in Wales name them
Perth scotland Chelmsford england St Asaph wales Isn't google marvellous ? In the interest of fairness...."other search engines are available" Next question....In Joe Walsh's track lifes been good....what does 185?
In 1994, Professor Stephen Hawking inadvertantly found himself at No.1 in the UK Album chart, how?...
For millions of years mankind lived just like the animals Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination We learned to talk Pink Floyd - Division Bell - Keep Talking
Must be something about that roundabout - for many years in the 70s the grafitti "Nicholas Parsons is the Neo-opiate of the people' made me smile... I reckon Asquith said that about Kitchener, Roller, but it sounds like a very modern quote.....
Over to you Stan. Don't you just hate precocious children? Especially if they ruin quiz questions.... If Stan is still in the land of Shinto, please set the next question Grinners
Still here, until tomorrow - you're up early Roller, I didn't realise modding was a 24 hour responsibility. Where did Winston Smith work? Suggestion - can we fess up to googled answers (some good precedents set already)? I've no problem with them, but I'm only attempting answers from my increasingly fallible memory, and I'm so far off the pace with lots of these that I'm developing an inferiority complex....... and a special one for the Floyd fans.....what did John Lydon (Rotten) have written on his T-shirt when he first met the other members of the Sex Pistols?
Ministry of Truth for Winston Smith.....Dying to know the Sex Pistol answers.... but a question for Stan...Do you hail from the Northwick Park area.....I remember the "Nicholas Parsons is the neo-opiate of the people" sign...there for ages. Also there for ages...."M.Khan is bent" on the North circular.....and "Give Peas a chance" on M40 near the M25 turn off
Correct Beth, too easy. I was born Honeypot Lane, which is NW10 apparently, lived nearly all of my youth Harrow Weald/Pinner, went to the now defunct Harrow Weald Grammar School, worked as a porter in Northwick Park Hospital during uni vacations. Like most, both sides of my family had migrated west up the Met line, all originally Clerkenwell/Marylebone for a long way back. In fact my son is the first member of my father's line to be born outside London since, we think, at least 1720. Got back for my daughter though. Johnny, one of my great and enduring heroes, had customised (i.e ripped) his Pink Floyd T-shirt and added the words 'I hate,,,," to it - well before there was any such fashion. Genius.
As no one else is putting up the next question.... Which group has a record 43 top 40 UK hits without a number 1?
I was born in Honeypot Lane too, but I expect a few years before you. We lived near South Kenton, and then more towards Preston Road. Small world
