    Female Rock Singers

    On Planet Rock today they're raging about the story of a bar/pub in Middlesbrough who have banned all female singers and girl bands. Someone complained they didn't like the sound of female singers etc, and the gaffer agreed, so he has brought the ban in. The music station thought it was a joke...

    Love snow

    Been for a good walk down the Slough. Lots of dog walkers and kids running about. I enjoy it while it's here, as we don't get real winters anymore.

    First ever record you bought?

    My dad was always singing or whistling. Did my mums head in at times. And when he'd had a few in the pub he'd be off again ! He liked Perry Como, Jim Reeves, Nat King Cole, and most crooners. The record player was always on in the house, that's why I love music so much I guess.

    Coventry, City of Culture 2021

    This is a bit like somebody slagging of a member of your family, you defend him/her and won't allow anybody to attack them,even if deep down you probably agree with them. Like our football team,yes they do your head in and get on your tits, but if they get slagged off by someone not from Cov...

    Coventry, City of Culture 2021

    I let out a "get in there " shout when he said the winner is Coventry. We may knock our city at times but makes you proud when we win something. Didn't know it was 2021 though, thought it was next year.
