Queen had been at a low ebb for a few years before they released the album The Works in 1984, which I think yielded 5 hit singles beginning with Radio Ga Ga. I saw them at Wembley Arena in September 1984 and it's still the best live...

We had similar when we went down either Speedwell or Treak Cliff Cavern( can’t remember which one) many years ago. The total blackness was grim. It made me fall forwards.

Memory lane for me Ferret when I was working we had a conference in a large hotel in Pott Shrigley effectively a jolly up and I have an abiding memory of about an hour after they opened the free bar and one of the most senior managers...

Stay away from my territory! The New York State Department of Health issued a warning this morning about extreme heat. I've stayed inside with the air handler fans running continuously and with the A/C set at 77 F. Probably used all of...

Still Open All Hours is a real mixed bag for me. Arkwright is very much missed and whilst David Jason makes a decent impersonation of him for the majority of it's run it feels just like Granville is doing just that in order to honour...

I assumed Leroy is Granville's son, there is an episode where Paula Wilcox [her of Man About the House ] turns up playing Leroy's mum and it is implied that Granville is his dad but apologies in advance if I got that wrong.

Leroy is the level-headed strait man to his uncle yet seems to be the opposite juggling Beth and his other lady friends : )

How is everyone doing? @onyx(John) I've seen videos of Irish men saying heatwave? What heatwave? If you tell me its cooler over there I'm getting the boat out and I've got photo id now so they can't stop me.
