Hi Simon,



Am I glad i didn;t get a chance to watch the football. I was literally watchign paint dry at the time!



Anyway, how about LET'S FACT THE MUSIC AND DANCE by NAT KING COLE? Seems quite apt for Capello - There may be trouble ahead....



Cheers,



Kev

Or;



NO MORE HEROES by THE STRANGLERS



STORY OF THE BLUES by THE MIGHTY WAH



Cheers,



Kev

Or, how about;



THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER by D:REAM feat. Prof. BRIAN COX?

This one is dedic ated to our back 4...



ALL STOOD STILL by ULTRAVOX

And again for our back 4;



THE THIN WALL by ULTRAVOX



as well as



DANCING WITH TEARS IN MY EYES by ULTRAVOX

Is everyone else enjoying the sunshine then?

Perhaps I can get a sneaky...

little...

run of...

10 in a row!

This is embarrasing...

How about



LEAVING ON A JET PLANE by PETER, PAUL AND MARY?

Or;



YOU'RE HISTORY by SHAKESPEARE'S SISTER

Or;



A CHANGE IS GONNA COME by SAM COOKE?

TIE A YELLOW RIBBON by DAWN?



(I'm coming home, I've done my time)...

Or;



EMBARRASSMENT by MADNESS?

Morning all! Crikey Kev, calm down.



How about 'Not a dry eye in the House' by Meatloaf?



I, personally, am indifferent.



Hope everybody's Monday goes well - my last Monday in my current employment. Week and a half and I am OUTTA here. Huzzah.



Deasant Play



MP

should I stop now?

HOMEWARD BOUND - SIMON & GARFUNKEL













Hello Kevin ;^)

Hi Malcolm, dont worry, I've calmed down now! 16 not out is a decent score!



Have a great last week of employment - got anything to go to?

#19 Hi KatyMac -I was getting worried I'd come to the wrong place!

Tut! Just noticed my typo in #1 - FACT THE MUSIC??? Tsk..

One for Capello -



SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO by THE CLASH

#19 Morning Katy. Hope your weekend went well. How was your weekend too Kev?



#20 - yes, Kev, I'm going to America! Only for a month, to do some touristy stuff. Then worry about propping up the economy when I return.



Counting down the days now to the Festival of Speed this weekend. I'm marshalling there and it is going to be GRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT. Here's hoping we get the chance to put in some requests for that before the week is out.

Morning All,



Suggestion today 'It's All Over Now' from the Rolling Stones



Hope everybody had a nice weekend and have a good week ahead



David

#24 My weekend was frantic! Saturday was spent looking at houses adn putting offers in on a couple of them. Sunday was spent doing the finishing touches to our flat in london, ready for it to rent out again - hence the time spent watching paint dry yesterday afternoon!



I envy your trip to America. We did a similar trip last year, but to NZ. My contract ended last July and we spent 6 weeks in a campervan before I spent the next 4 months looking for a job (and then I found a job, to quote Morrissey)...enjoy!

Morning all, Morning Simon



As you've got Judy Collins in tonight, could you please play:



SEND IN THE CLOWNS



seems quite apt after yesterday's hilarious performance!

Morning all



I'll take your last Monday Malc and raise you last Monday but one - yes I have 2 more weeks of this boredom to go..... I am so looking forward to the 'garden' for 2 months before I get down to the serious work of finding a job......



Still contemplating what to request - some good suggestions already.



Stay cool



mtd ffb xxx

#26 Cheers Kev - best of luck with the houses situation. Really hope you get what you're after!

Speaking of Judy Collins, I love her version of the great Sandy Denny's "Who knows Where The Time Goes"...just thought I'd let you know that!

Ah - hello Malcolm [hadn't seen your post when I posted], and indeed DBB59 ..





.. what a weekend, eh? Did loads of other stuff apart from 'the match'. Am still lazing in bed ..





Splednid

#28 Best of luck MTD. Hope you enjoy your garden!

Splednid indeed, Katy! When you rise from your pit, stick t'kettle on eh. I'll have tea white no sugar - what'll everybody have? Give Katy something to do :-P

#33, Decaf tea with one sweetener please...

#33 I'm fine thank you Malcolm - I have plenty to keep me occupied from the comfort of my bed/office - laptop, TV, Goblin TeasMaid ... or was it Teas Made - or Tees Made - anyone else remember them??

#35 The Goblin Teas Maid - I always thought it was rather an unfortunate juxtaposition of words with a huge snigger factor ..

Moring all



Its a Heartache - Bonnie Tyler



The Carnival is Over - The Seekers





3 Word Monday England were pathetic

Haha - that's rather amusing.



Bed/office indeed? What's on t'telly?

#38 Dunno - have radio on, quiet-like - because I'm working ..

Morning All



I'll kick off (although maybe that's a bad choice of words) with:



"Sorry seems to be the hardest word" by Elton John

"It's over" by Level 42

"Don't go breaking my heart" by Elton John and Kiki Dee



May be back later with some other suggestions - I'm finding it a bit hard to get enthusiastic about today's theme though. Blame it on the heat...



Deebee X

#40 - Deebee, don't blame it on the sunshine.....

Don't blame it on the moonlight

Don't blame it on the good times ...

Blame it on Capello....

I just can't, I just can't, I just can't control my team...

morning peeps :-)



'Shame' Evelyn Champagne King

Good twist Kev.

Morning DBB, Tortie, PSL, MTD. What's occurring?

LOL!! You lot.... this is why I joined this blog! Nothing to do with choosing songs for a radio show at all (well, maybe a bit.....)

I try my best, Mister Dipper!

50, yay!

'darkest days' Jackie Lee

'get out and let me cry' Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes

Congrats, Master Kev!



May I offer up a morsel of advice for people to consider in the sunshine: when running a stall for kids to shoot rubber ducks off a table with water pistols, and you decide to immerse yourself in the barrel to cool off, REMOVE WALLET FROM TROUSERS!

Only one choice for today



RIP IT UP (and start again) by Orange Juice



Mike, Leicester

' I don't blame you at all ' Smokey Robinson and the Miracles



....Capello is/was only as good/bad as his team....and they were pretty poor!

#53 thank you, kind sir! That missive of yours sounds like a Tweet Of Wisdom right there!

Ooh, how about

Given I'm not English dare I suggest:





HAPPINESS by KEN DODD?







Love the show, the host, myself, the staff, the other blogpoppets, the mods, the tweeters, the browsers, the callers, the emailers, the face bookers, the ones that don't even know the show exists (shame on you)

#56 I would tweet it if I could. I'm only just getting to grips with the ol' book of Faces yet though. I offer it up as advice for anybody to spread, providing they credit the source. (Not that anybody would say that and admit to being the guilty party...)

Has anybody been watching Glastonbury? I thought Stevie Wonder was great last night, and enjoyed the Pet Shop Boys session too.

Good Afternoon Each! Do you know, I expected to be feeling a tad low, but am actually surprisingly chipper. Perhaps it has something to do with the losing team playing in red. Never ENTIRELY a bad thing.



Songs for losers...



'Lost In A Lost World' by The Moody Blues



or...



'Haven't We Lost Enough?' by Crosby, Stills And Nash.

How about 'Couldn't get it right' by Climax Blues Band?

#61 - You see, you had to go and have a little dig, didn't you? ;-)

Oh, sorry, Kev. Didn't see you there. ;0)



Are you likely to be able to get to any For*st matches next season? I know you are a bit of a distance away for home games, but any away?

#64 I would think so Paul - Pompey is a definite, Reading is do-able, Crystal palace at a push. probably a few more too if I can sweet talk Mrs. Williams...not an easy task!

#60 I saw (not so) Little (any more) Stevie Wonder too. Wonderful set, capped by the hilarious sight of Michael Eavis desparately trying to wish himself to be anywhere else as he was thrown onto the stage whilst Stevie sung "Happy Birthday" to him!

I am a smidge more disappointed than I was at 4-0. The reason? I can't be about too much on the blog, either today or tomorrow, and todays seems to be shaping up to be a good one. So, I am orft, and will try to catch up laters. Keep up the good workthen Kev, Malcolm, Katy, DBB59, Tortie, MTD, Mark C, Deebs, PSL,CDF. And welcome aboard Best_Mate.(LCFC fan?)

#54 - Welcome, Best Mate. Enjoy yourself...it's later than you think!

#60 I watched Stevie Wonder he was very good, Faithless were awesome too

Hello Everyone,



Blimmin' 'eck it's been busy here today - wor hasn't so much percolated down to me as drowned me in a deluge. Yippee!!! Can't believe it's 1.15pm.



Just pooped by to suggest:-



ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE - ERIC IDLE



Warmest welcome to Best Mate.



Missing you already PoS.



Hope you get good news on the house front Kev.



Has your wallet dried out yet Malc?



Katy, if you are making a cuppa, I'd love a redbush with a smidge of honey, Honey. Ta muchly. You are very disciplined working from bed - I'd be tempted to snuggle down and have a snoozette.



Well just typing as I trough so I'm off to give my fruit salad a bit more attention - I'm going to pretend it's smothered in chocolate and cream.



Gailyb

Looking forwards rather than back, strikes me our only hope now is Andy Murray. So how about "Holding out for a hero" by Bonnie Tyler?

#70 - Never mind Nigel's recipes, GB, here's one from me. I never used to like fruit salad on it's own, so I used to grate a small piece of chocolate over it and the difference is amazing! Lots more taste (and enjoyment) for only a square's worth of chocolate-derived calories!

#71 - you forget our valiant cricket team, who are doing rather well against the Aussies!

#73 yes but "holding out for (insert number of players in a cricket team - I don't know, I'm not a cricket fan!) heros" doesn't scan very well

#70 hi GB hope all's well. Enjoy that fruit salad to the max, with or without the choccy. And good luck paddling out from behind that work pile.



Just about all dried out now (wallet too) - lesson well and truly learned.

How about;



WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER from HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL...for the team and Capello...

How about:



"The Crying Game"



or



"Cry me a river"

Cardigans - ''[Losing] my Favourite Game''

Kev - what a cracking idea - can't imagine I hadn't thought of it myself. I usually have a square of chocolate a day and think that's a fab way of using it.



MP - I'm just about to dive back in again. I just love being busy so I'm on a wee bit of a natural high - is that too sad?



THREE WORD MONDAY



COME ON ANDY



Gaily B

Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue by Crystal Gale



or the mighty Roy Orbison's Crying please

#79 Here to help, GB!

That's a perfect attitude to have - I sometimes think like that too (but prefer it when the work is bus driving - always makes the time go quickly and enjoyably interacting with people and doing something practical).



In other news, I found my way to the blogpoppets Facebook page recently... I'm tempted to instigate a competition for who can find me first and get my real name. If anybody cares, can they pick me out from the group? Is that sad?

#82 Are your initials BB?

#83 Wow I can't believe somebody's picked up the challenge. Good guess Deebee, but have another try...

#84 I state you are Smiley Miley and I claim my £5...

Woah Kev hang on - I didn't mention a prize. I might - MIGHT - be persuaded to buy the winner a drink at a future blog meet-up.



Smiley Miley doesn't even come close - have you ever seen me smile? If you've still got your eyesight I suggest not...

Hi All,



Although other half was stoic in the face of such a defeat, can I request:



Angry Mod by the Kaiser Chiefs

Bad to the Bone by George Thoroughgood and the Destroyers

or perhaps

I thought it was over by The Feeling



Lueyluey

x

How about 'Summer Holiday' by Cliff Richard?

'it's over' Roy Orbison

100 by 5:00pm?

It's a possibility - who's with me?

Good Afternoon All,



Didn't see the match as I was at a party, and all talk of football was forbidden...bliss!!



Kev- have you been at the orange smarties again?? (other chocolates are available..etc) You are obviously back on top form, Darren has serious competition with all those posts! Incidentally, both your first choices were exactly the same as mine when Simon asked us for winning and losing songs last week. Great Minds! So I would like to endorse:



No More Heroes by The Stranglers and



Story of the Blues by Wah



Off to recover after a very hot shopping trip - Mr Mcw came too - and unusually for a bloke he loves shopping..I don't!!So am looking forward to a nice cup of tea!



Keep Cool Everyone, Mcw x

How about a real oldie?



PICK YOURSELF UP, DUST YOURSELF OFF, AND START ALL OVER AGAIN by FRED ASTAIRE

How about;



LOSER by BECK?

#82 Would I be close if I said Hi, Rich!

And I've gone again (before the century comes up, too)

Hey Chickster! No oragne Smarties for me, just high on the excitement of trying to buy and sell a houase at the same time - when I say excitement, I of course mean the nerve-shredding, fingernail-biting type of "excitement"...or, as we all know it, hysteria!



Yes, indeed great minds - they probably embedded themselves in my subconscious last week and surfaced this morning!

soon be the big...

fat...

100?
