    Scientists have realised that trees have a way of communicating with each other.
    It’s called What Sap.

    I’m sure I can’t be the only one on this forum who was lucky enough to be taken to see Gerry starring in Aladdin at Southampton Gaumont in the early 60’s. At the end of the panto, he was joined by the Pacemakers for a full set of their hits, complete with screaming girl accompaniment from the crowd. An incredible experience for a lad like me, and which helped set me on the path of loving music in all its myriad forms, but especially live.

    So thanks for those memories Gerry, and RIP <rose>

    Great story Chilcs, everything was so fresh and exciting then I imagine.

    Gerry sang the definitive version of what turned into a football anthem and i've always loved Ferry Cross The Mersey* too...R.I.P. Gerry..<rose>

    Different times for sure! Gerry and the Pacemakers were the first artists ever to have their first three singles go straight to no. 1, which wasn’t repeated until Frankie Goes To Hollywood 20-odd years later. Even their Epstein stablemates the Beatles didn’t achieve that accolade. Gerry was an authentic superstar, and yet he did panto! In Southampton!

    I went to the Doctor the other day.
    I said,’Have you got anything for wind?’
    He gave me a kite!

    What do the testicles and the prostate have in common?

    Nothing. There’s a vas deferens between the two.

    A Dutch friend died while making butter on his farm last week.
    It was a really unfortunate churn of events.

    I am going to pinch that and milk it for all it's worth. It could be the whey to butter up some friends or cheese them off.

    Let's hope I don't bottle it.
