jillygoat

Morning all,



Been missing in action this week, I know. And too late to post my choices today as they have all gone.



Good luck to all!



Cheers,



Kev

According to the 'Homework Sucks' section, Simon is on holiday. Has he been surplanted by an imposter whilst no-one was looking? If so, he's very good!

Maybe we could help you with your homework Paul?



Afternoon everyone.



MTF.xx

#52 Oops! Missed your post Brandon! As I doubt it will be played, I think we are safe to share!



Paul, can we offer assistance? And if we do, will you send us a car sticker?

Alex, WHY didn't we think to ask for one last friday, doh!



MTF.xx

Paul there is a wealth of experience and good sense on this 'ere blog not forgetting a willingness to help any poor soul in peril / confuddlement.



Gaily~B x

Don't see BLACK COFFEE by All Saints. Bit tenuous but maybe that's what's needed to calm everyone in the SPL world down.



Good afternoon all. Bit miffed that I have been trying to log in since 6.45am. Hope whatever was broke is fixed.



x

Brilliant Mistake - Elvis Costello & the Attractions. Refs have been accused of making many not so brillinat ones x

In trying to avoid the obvious; what about:

Wicked Game - Chris Isaak

or

Games people play - Joe Smith

It really depends what sort of tempo you're after!

Good show, what!

Brillinat?



Handbags and Gladrags - Stereophonics - it's all a bit handbgas at dawn x

Good afternoon,



Was going to suggest YELLOW by Coldplay but see someone who could log in earlier already has. What about RED RED WINE by UB40? Or maybe THE NIGHT HAS A 1000 EYES by Bobby Vee? Bit tenuous I know but refs seem to need eyes everywhere. Oooh what about FAKE by Alexander O'Neill? Refs see lots of those.



Just goggled referee songs but don't think any of the suggestions that came up would be appropriate for a respectable show like Drive Time...



Hope you are feeling much better today, Simon.



Juliax

Play the Game - Queen - Just get on with it lads!

Or The Show Muast Go On - also by Queen - for if replacement are found for Sat x

Oh dear - so many typos. You'll be relieved to hear I have finished going through my collection looking for tenuous links. Had to pass over some of the more controvertial ones. Disappearing for the rest of the afternoon to go to a workshop. See y'all after 5.



Take care x

#65 MO - fret ye not Honey, Brillinat is a definite contender for the blog dictionary - along with, among others, splednid, inspiratino and fingets :)

#70 - Sorry Mo, Hope I didn't startle you shouting your name out like that. Enjoy your workshop and fingets crossed you have a splednid afternoon :)



Gaily~B

I love the blog distionary. I am sure I have many more contributions to make x

Perhaps the official title should be BLOG DITCHIONARY

Afternoon all



How about "The Whistler" - Jethro Tull?



OK, maybe not :-)

Hello again. So, in expectancy of being passed over for a more interesting and entertaining 'Homework Sucks' question on the show itself, I will indeed ask the glorious bloggers the very same question I have posed to Simon. 'Twas this...



At 9.15 this morning I felt the need to turn around to protect my eyes from the brightly shining sun. On carrying out said action, I noticed that the moon was also visible in the sky. Both Sun and Moon were low in the sky, at pretty much, but not quite the same level. When facing one of the celestial objects, the other was almost, but not quite, directly behind me. My question, therefore, is, would it have been possible for me to be standing somewhere so that if facing either the sun or moon, the other would have been DIRECTLY behind me,positioned in a manner that an exact 180° turn would have me facing the other body directly, and with them both of an apparent equal hieght in the sky? If so, where would I have had to be? Also, at what time would I have had to be there? It seems to me that this may be a very common occurence, or it may be so rare that I may never witness such a juxtaposition again. In addition, would it be possible to observe all of the above whilst the moon was full, as it ALMOST was this morning?



An alternative question, if that seems a bit tough, is bacon, fried or grilled?

#73 - Hi Ethics Man - just chuckling at your moniker :)



Gaily~B

#75 - The Waterboys - Whole of the Moon springs to mind?



Definitely grilled with broon sauce on a bagel, please :) Yummy



Gaily~B :)

Hi All



Just back from a swim. I practically had the pool to myself today - it was lovely. And it's just an ordinary public pool, not a gym pool. I kept forgetting how many lengths I'd done though.



#57 That might explain why he was better looking in real life ;o)



#75 Will have a thunk. Do I get a car sticker if I get it right?



And definitely grilled. You get a crispier finish and it's less greasy.



Deebee X

#75 - Btw, toast the bagel and spread directly on exit from toaster with lashings of butter so it all melts in a becomes a little soggy.



*off to get a cloth for the drool pooling on my desk*



~

Paul, now!



MTF.xx

#78. A car sticker? I have to say, that seems unlikely. As for getting it right, seeing as I don't know the answer, you could pretty much palm me off with any old tosh, and claim it to be correct. I'd be none the wiser.



If you do convince me that you've got it right, I suppose I could peel the old togs sticker from the car my son now drives. Or I have a fine 'Steve Bloomer's Watching' car sticker that I got from BBC Radio Derby, if that would be of interest?

#80. Where?

Well preferably on a plate ta.x

#76 Thanks GailyBevs - glad someone likes it!

#75 The most obvious answer to both must be; since we all know the moon is made of cheese, it must be grilled on top of the bacon =:P

So, it seems that people are mainly focusing on the bacon question. However, it was a trick question, as the bacon was a joint. The answer was neither.

#75 Grilled. Agree with the lashings of butter and brown sauce, but has to be on really nice white bread. Don't get on with bagels.



MTF, from earlier - we really so should have asked for a car sticker on Friday! We will remember next year!

3 word Tuesday.....



Pauls homework sucks!



Gotta fly.



MTF.xx

#85 You are a wag, Paul!!!

Alex, we will indeedio.xx

With that, I'm offski f'rabbit! Onerous tasks have fallen before me, and will not go away without a smidge of attention. Until later, lovely ones. I wish you all well regard mensh seeking!

Bye paul. Enjoy your bacon joint!

The bacon was a joint?



Just light it, sit back and relax...



Afternoon all.

#92 - shouldn't that be beer can? (say it out loud) :)
