Anyone that managed to stay alive long enough to maintain a career with sell out live shows at top venues as well as still recording new material after 50 years or so deserves respect. Especially as it transcends what was fashionable over a short period.

I agree about The Beatles. Of course they were well promoted by Brian Epstein and reached cinema audiences with A Hard Days Night and Help but there was not the saturation coverage and platforms that are available now. Yet their impact was absolutely huge at the time and their legacy assured.

Mozart, Beethoven, Handel etc.

Don't think Elvis actually wrote his material

What do suppose China's attitude to spies they find is.

I think you will find plenty of us know because we have loved ones. You don't need to think we are all the same. We didn't all vote for the governments elected that brought us to where we are.

I'm sure the parents enjoy have their grown up children living with them? All this highlights the dangers of generalisation. I won't be accepting the guilt for a whole generation. I won't bother going into too many personal details but suffice to say I was certainly not living a well off life. We were happy but money was very tight. No regular holidays etc. I remember we moved into our flat in October and had to save up for a fridge bought the following February. Luckily during winter but a few things did go off during a mild spell.

Don't think much of the current Labour front bench. Hopefully Andy Burnham will get a look in. Shame Dan Jarvis is not further up the pecking order.

Yes. They often seem to forget the idea is get elected in government and stay there rather than navel gaze from the confines of the party. Starmer may be a decent person but can't galvanise the general public as PM and see off the likes of Farage. John Major was rerided as the grey man. Starmer is the beige man.

I despised Thatcher's policies from day one of her winning the 1979 election. The writing was on the wall even back then. I remember when Labour scored an own goal by electing Michael Foot as leader instead of Denis Healey. My wife worked in social care so we know how under funded that is. That working class folk think that Reform is the answer is potty.

No prove but if we are interested in Dave Challinor then obviously nothing can happen until Stockport finish their season?

I surely can't be in a minority as an over 65 that constantly is concerned about the future of my children and grandchildren and looks for policy that will help them. I would guess that the over 60 right wing voter was a selfish under 60 and under 50 etc voter back in the day

If only those that should be paying taxes did so

I think your post at least suggests you want pensioners to take a cut. You have back tracked slightly by indicating better off pensioners which is not the majority

Oh and Lineker

Banks, Shilton, Vardy and Mahrez

Totally agree. Shout out for his 1964 version of The Killers with Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson and Ronald Reagan of all people. Of course Don Siegel was something of a mentor to Clint Eastwood.

I wasn't thinking he wanted to fly tip only that he said no wonder people do because of cost etc

Always strikes me as potty that a manager has very little influence on what new players are brought in. After all it is his head on the block when it goes wrong. Surely we have to get a new manager ASAP and have him and his staff discuss directly the budget and targets.

Shame the prize was not 6 league points

Good post but we wore Maroon when winning the FA Cup. Burgundy is different

There can never be an excuse to fly tip

Looking bad for West Ham

And still there are silly sods messing with phones etc

So sorry for Mark Allen though I do like Wu. Reminded of the most ever empathetic commentary by Eddie Waring. " he's a poor lad"
