Because he’s been making a living out of that load of old drivel for the past thirty years?

HO ! HO ! Must admit, the programmes long past its sell-by date, as is Last of The Summer Wine.

when the fab four began recording i bought their records obviously because i liked their music but also because their B sides were of an equally high standard unlike the then current recording stars both UK and US who tended to put out mediocre B sides (or fillups) their(the beatles) example started a trend as from that point B sides were better quality, good on em!:cool:

Have you ever listened to Charlie Parker? he never recorded a lousy B side.

For some reason the name Woodville or Woodvine springs to mind – it’s probably easier for me to pop downstairs and look in the Radio Times, but I can’t be bothered. Anyway, can anybody suggest why Charlie is incapable of looking people in the eye?

Hi
Just wondered…
have corgi ( or anyone similar) ever made a diecast whirlwind ?
cheers

I reckon a Corgi die-cast of a Beaufighter would outsell a Whirlwind by a very large ratio, can’t imagine why they haven’t already made one…….

A similiar crock of journalistic licence appeared in my local free rag a week or two ago. This report concerned an Indian pop star who modelled his wedding on his favourite Bollywood film. The journo reported that a fleet of stretched limousines took the guests and bridal couple from Potters Bar up to Cambridge Airport, where everybody boarded a luxury jet. When airborne the guests were apparently served a meal prepared by the best Indian restaurant in the area. The airliner was due to be accompanied on the trip by ‘a Second World War Russian fighter’.
The article was completed by a group photo posed in front of the luxury jet, which turned out to be an Air Atlantique DC3.

The thread was about Lewis moving to Switzerland – he says it’s the media attention he can’t stand, I say it’s the tax breaks he can take advantage of.
Good Luck to him.

I actualy realy enjoyed some of the more unusual acts last year. The Helicopter picking up the roadwork cone was very imprssive as well as the Hang Glider display.

Just as long as the geezer with the helio runs his engine up on the far side of the field this time, and not directly in front of me – it’s the only time I’ve watched a Spitfire display to the sound of rotor blades instead of a Merlin or Griffon.
