i do love a good morose ditty

 

This one always reminds me of Christmas 1982, when I was down the Falklands we spent Christmas Eve in the very small air terminal drunk as lords on the kindess from the folks in the UK who had sent us down some Wadworths 6X in a small barrel A good time was had by all considering we were 8,000 miles away from our loved ones My thoughts as always at this time of year go out to all the Servicemen and woman who are apart from their families at this time of year. God bless you all and may he keep you safe!

Like that one, but never understood the Christmas connection

For a bit of Aussie humour:

As it's the Strictly Final on Saturday, this brings back some memories especially as it's to an SEJ song:

Just read that Billie Jo Spears died yesterday - this is probably her only hit record but it was massively, massively popular in Oz back in the 70's & it brings back some extremely pleasant memories. RIP Billie Jo

strangely, my friend in America who is hugely into Country..has never heard of Billie Jo Spears...how odd!

 

I love my iMac, it makes it so easy to go through my old music - what a beautiful album this is...

No tears from Master H...but with the party going on...i was just thinking 'party' lol

 

H, is this you in a past life? Just watched it on BBC4 Xmas TOTP 1976

Did she get that jumper off Noel Edmonds or vice versa?

 

Ah, the lovely Tina Charles... i think she lived near me...or i knew someone who knew her, or something! We all used to sing that song at school...in really squeaky voices! lol...i did love the jumper though

 

I can top that - only reason for choosing this version is that the video is set at a party. I do prefer the original by Eric Carmen.

Although, after nearly 7 years with the exception of a couple of months a couple of years ago, it could almost be my theme tune.
