    Anyone watch this documentary on the Beeb a few nights ago? It was fantastic. Grew up with these guys in my head and they wrote some absolutely phenomenal songs culminating with the album Bridge Over Troubled Waters.

    For those of us of a certain age this was essential viewing.

    Simon and Garfunkel <ok>

    I did. Brilliant album from two very talented artists, especially Paul Simon.

    ps Waters? Have a word old fella.

    Didn't see it, but they'll undoubtedly repeat it. Will have a look next time.

    I bought Art Garfunkel a jacuzzi card table for his birthday because I heard he likes to play bridge over troubled water.

    Well worth seeing.

    I did not realise that Garfunkel had quite an input to the songs. Paul Simon was the predominant songwriter but Art contributed and had the better voice. They were a perfect pairing really.
