    Deftones - Simple Man Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah Johnny Cash - Hurt Hurt is my overall favourite, fantastically emotional video too.

    Things that annoy you

    That Jonny Depp one that's been dug up every xmas and fathers day for the past 3 years or more is a great example. Wtf is that all about?!

    Peter Kay

    Touts will do nicely out of this. They will have flogged their tickets on at double or triple their face value and now they will get refunded their original 'investment'. Those buying from touts will be wishing they hadn't tonight... Hopefully all will be well with him and his family in due course.

    Love snow

    I'm over in Telford and we've had getting on for a foot of snow over the past couple of days. I don't drive and need to get in to work tomorrow so will probably have to walk 3 miles in it. Can't wait...

    Things that annoy you

    The Royal family. Does one of them getting engaged really warrant breaking news notifications on my phone and headline news all over the place? I see Sky news have wall to wall coverage too.

    Should have reintroduced hanging just for him and the other one.

    Parents to pay for kids' pens in Theresa May's constituency

    My parents always used to have to provide pens, pencils, calculators and what not. We would get the text books and notebooks to write in at no cost. We also got free stationary from the technology class as it was often posh paper, coloured card and more expensive type stuff. I used to rob it...

    The Gigs Thread

    I saw the Killers at the NEC on Tuesday night. It turns out the guitarist and bassist are not doing the tour so that's half the line up who couldn't be bothered to show. Not having been to a gig at the NEC before I don't know what the sound is usually like in there (I was sat towards the other...

    The Spirits Thread

    Jack Daniels fireball and the honey varieties for me. I do have a bottle of absinthe somewhere but last time I had that I blinked and 2 hours went by so that stays in the cupboard.

    Halloween

    Lights off, tv on upstairs, sorted. I don't know any young families near me so anyone knocking on my door is a scrounger in my book.

    Things that annoy you

    Halloween. Since when did it become a thing? Constant adverts on the TV trying to flog tat.

    What are you currently listening to?

    My favourite ever album is the Holy Bible, but Everything Must Go isn't too far behind. 2 totally different sounding albums but both absolutely fantastic. Gold Against The Soul could have been up there too but was massively over produced and sounded far too clean and sterile.

    Harvey Weinstein / Sex Scandals

    Well, yeah there's going to be a lot of people who have been complicit in this. Whoever allowed such a clause to be added to a contract for example. Surely that would have set alarm bells ringing.

    Cost of Obesity

    I've got a brother in law, he must be at least 30 stone. He doesn't want to work and spends his days sat in front of the TV eating. I dread to think of the amount of money thr NHS has spent trying to help him when he has no intention of stopping. I've also got another two brother in laws who...

    Things that annoy you

    Is it too early to say Xmas? I'm fed up to the back teeth of hearing the adult members of my wife's family waffling on about their sodding xmas lists. As for the younger members, one of them has a handwriten 15 page list of things they want totalling well over £500. The youngest only has half a...

    Things that annoy you

    Unnecessary roadworks. I work in Shrewsbury so I don't know if any of you know where the old football ground is. It's a real pinch point gyratory system that is badly hemmed in by buildings and the railway so the powers that be have decided the following: Extend the footpath that outside the...

    This weeks WC qualifiers

    I'm watching on S4C. I think I studied Welsh in junior and high school for 5 years or so and I still have no idea what the commentators are saying.

    Only in... Scotland?

    I think from police quotes and the fact the property has been dug up they know full well who did it, it's just a case of finding out when and why and 16 years is a long time to dispose of evidence so I don't envy their job. You would have thought 16 years would have been enough time to come up...

    Only in... Scotland?

    I read this on the BBC yesterday. The police will struggle to find evidence after all this time. It's sad that someone can go missing for 16 years and nobody notices.

    Sounds like it's a good thing my live stream has been blocked by the public wifi I was going to be using this afternoon!!
