Not quite the same as getting lobsters out of Jane Mansfield's arsehole. Now, where's my copy of Derek and Clive Live?

NEVER a relegation one - from any league. Last time the rfu foisted that rubbish on clubs, Cov were relegated by a side* that hadn't won a single game all season, yet brought in a shedload of decent overseas players just before the cut-off (they'd been registered earlier in the season on false...

May '70 here, so not quite such an old twat as yow ;) Had just got a little money in my pocket for the first time, and seen Free at the Lanch, and bought my first LP (Thank Christ for the Bomb iirc). Halcyon days.

Seems they've found another body linked to this, but this time at Newbold Comyn.

Hah. R deC and Nookie were also on the bill at that Cannon and Ball Show. Not very PC now, but funny at the time.

Still that good huh?

I was even more careful. I always used to wangle it so it was my cousin's turn to drive.

Only '69. Just like yesterday really...

Terrible. Made I larf though.

Used to go over to Dudley Wood occasionally in the seventies (Cradley Heath vs Cov Bees). The whole area was redolent of some improbable dystopian Hollywood movie.

Wales, British Lions, and Llanelli legend JJ Williams has died at age 72. One of the greats of an era of Welsh rugby that will always be remembered by those that witnessed it.

Saw Cannon and Ball at Cov Theatre (83 ish). Sad to hear of Bobby's passing.

Oh, and ended up with a bit of Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, somehow. This one being in probably my top ten all time songs.

Mostly Spencer Davis Group earlier today. (Best Of album). Sent me down a Traffic/Steve Winwood wormhole. All good.

Absolutely fantastic film I could watch time and again. Brian Glover's part is my worst nightmare as a PE teacher though. Even bigger bastard than Jack Pilbin was to us!

Never watched Kes, I take it?

Bring back bastards like this... (Not really though).

Fair comment. But this just seemed kinda raw. Someone who was a 'real' leader of the free world (unlike the current klutz-in-chief) gunned-down in plain sight. And here was the car in which he took the bullet. And when I saw it, it was only 30-odd years after it happened. Hard to describe, but...

Thought you said Trump for a mo... Never mind. I saw the car that JFK was shot in on display at Dearborn Greenfield Museum some years ago. Struck me as slightly tasteless, but Americans, eh?

Yeah. But like people who pronounce burglary as burgulry.
