I've had to drive up to Wakefield and back this morning Wanted some music to keep me company My wife had left a Cat Stevens CD in never realised how good he is
Cat Stevens had a hell of a role to fill if he made Wakefield seem tolerable
On the subject of cats, what was the name of Alexi Sayle's cat that he lost a few years ago?
Wilf Mbanga was the name Rog.
ach of course, I knew it was something wierd
but will the real wilf go back to zimbabwe now mugagbe is no more?
Roger. Nowt wrong with Wakefield compared to Derby it's Utopia. Did you realise its a city they even have electrification trains something we can only dream about I have to go on business otherwise I don't think I would bother All they talk about is rugby league and how dirty Leeds will be in the Prem next season

Bad Company - Rock'n'Roll Fantasy
I mentioned in another thread a business I ran in the 90s selling promo copies of albums and singles from a big collection owned by a relative. part of my payment was 'keeping any stuff you fancy', and that 'stuff' included just about every rock album ever released on Atlantic or its subsidiaries/Vanity labels. I still have about fifty albums still wrapped and unplayed, and I open one up every now and then and treat it like I bought it back in the day, so basically play it to death for a few weeks. I've just unwrapped the first of four Bad Company albums I have yet to play, 'Desolation Angels', and this classic is the first cut on the album. Really diggin it man, and bear in mind this is 38 years ago and Paul Rodgers' voice is as good now as it was then.
‘Nowt wrong with Wakefield’...as long as you steer clear of the prison that dominates the skyline. Home to some major nasties including the repulsive Philpott creature I believe.Quote:

It's Leonard Cohen tonight!! I find his music and poetry quite fascinating and absorbing! Just over a year since we lost a superb talent and artist. Hellalujah Leonard.
'I went to see my mother, she was slaughtering a lamb'. Heartening stuff.Quote:
