    I may have mentioned this track before but its my favourite Iron Maiden song: When The Wild Wind Blows. It's a long track but worth the listen !

    It was an iconic place in the sixties/seventies and my mum loved going there on a Saturday to get some stuff. Some stalls sold good clothes back then.Yet it never seemed as gloomy and shabby as it is now.

    Cov City Badges

    Have to agree about the smell there. Fish,fruit,vegetables,not a nice mix. I just went straight to the record stall and was out of there fifteen minutes later.What has always niggled me about the market is when you're just casually walking by a stall,and the assistant tries to flog you...

    Cov City Badges

    Popped into the market this afternoon to go to the record stall there. They sell badges and have bought SISU out and City Till I Die badges before. I asked if they had any or any new ones ? They didn't and said they stopped doing them even though they selled well. For some reason they stopped...

    When Your Time Is Up ?

    I'm 62 and feel fairly fit and hope I've got years left. But my son reckons I'm immortal and when I mentioned that I was going to set up a life assurance policy he said why what's that for ? When I told him etc he laughed and went out. So he won't listen and says don't be daft dad you'll go on...

    Listening to the City on the radio and Willis making an error for their goal, I'm starting to lose the will to live !

    When Your Time Is Up ?

    The woman customer who is dying has a great sense of humour,she said she will want me to carry on cleaning her windows even when she's gone, as her daughter is living there.And said I'd better clean the bird shit of the windows,as shed be watching me from above. That made me laugh and how cool...

    When Your Time Is Up ?

    Me and my sister were with my dad when the doctor at the hospital told him and us both he had 2 months to live as the cancer was too progressive etc. I felt sick and my sister who's a nurse just looked at the floor. But my dad sobbed for about a minute,and said " I can't complain as I've had a...

    When Your Time Is Up ?

    Sorry for touching on a morbid subject but it is interesting I find. A customer of mine hasn't got long left as she's terminally ill.But she's stoic and upbeat and resigned to her fate. She's got everything sorted out,funeral and finances etc,and her will and other stuff. She's so positive I end...

    Remember a sketch on Spitting Image many years ago when they said " They'd never met a nice South African ? " Could that also be said of Millwall ?

    Danny Baker

    He's a Millwall fan I think ? Interesting bloke loves his football and music. Only thing that irritates me is his radio show,he hardly let's his guests get a word in,as Frank Skinner reminded him on Room 101.
