Today I'm happy about......

[Montreal Wanderer]

I'm not very good at haikus but have some suggestions for the game of Fractured Berkshirisms (the joining of two independent Berkshirism sentences into one a la haiku):

you hate Duckworth i presume. thank you for not hating me

can i predict we will get 0 points from are next 3 games (including this one) we will loose 2-1 IMO with 2 draws

the second i walked in iIpicked up a strange smell. pubs with good grub are a rareity in my part of the world

they have Khan on there ludercrous. i do not think that is a word , maybe i am wrong.

My shirt arrived this morning. it was unbeleivably creased mind so i do not know what they were doing with it in the club shop but looks like they have been using it as a mop. it was basically a plastic bag made to look nice

i am one of the youngest ones on here and i cannot say that about many people

They're good. You want to take up poetry!

here's today's

i will be there WITH MY BLAKEMAN SHIRT - please change where appropiate

[Gary the Enfield]

I always thought they had something missing though. They needed a better 'front man'. I reckon Noddy Holder would have fit right in there

1,2, ah 1,2,3 now cum on feel the noize, girls grab the bo-oyz...
we get wild, wild, wild

Another vastly underrated band. Ambrose Slade were better without their commercial songs.

Here's them in the late sixties.

Now strangely enough, there's many a Slade song I've 'danced' to when completely pissed. And on the subject of publicly crap but secretly admired bands I reckon T Rex are right up there - Toptastic.

[Little Green Man]

Is that Mark Davies second from the right?

Aah, no.

[Lost Leopard Spot]

Aah, no.

We were born not to see eye to eye. It's fate.

[Gary the Enfield]

We are close to agreeing on Slade. Tell you what. List your top five bands and I'll do the same. We may not be that far apart.

Miami Sound Machine
Milli Vanilli
Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch
Chumbawamba
One Direction

I'm not hopeful about this meeting of minds...

[Lord Kangana]

Chumbawamba are a bit out of place in that company, aren't they?

[thebish]

Chumbawamba are a bit out of place in that company, aren't they?

what can i say - LLS is eclectic in his tastes!

If you could dance to Slade you must have been well off your head.

Oh I concede. My choices are not worthy of taking space on this page.

Today I'm happy about this

I used to work with this guy. Right nice chap who'd been treated (imo) pretty shabbily by panicky, knee jerk, right on to55pots

[boltonboris]

Right nice chap aye, if not a bit bigoted on his views..

[Harry Genshaw]

Right nice chap aye, if not a bit bigoted on his views..

Go on then I'll bite.

He's a Christian who has no issue with same sex marriage, but doesn't see why they would want to get married in a Christian place of worship. I'm not remotely religious so I find it hard to see sense in many of his ideas but I dont find his viewpoint in this, either surprising or bigotted.

I think it was ludicrous for the company he worked for to even get involved with this...

but to respond to what you just wrote...

it is perfectly understandable (isn't it?) for a gay christian couple to want to get married in a christian place of worship?

To me, yes. But to some Christians it's incompatible with their faith/beliefs. I dont see that belief as bigotted. Short sighted and old fashioned? Certainly!

And on the subject of publicly crap but secretly admired bands I reckon T Rex are right up there - Toptastic.

Publicly crap? Secretly admired? Marc Bolan was years ahead of his time. I was 11 when he died, it's only as I became an adult that I began to understand his absolute brilliance.
