In the 70s Sister Sledge used to drive around in British cars. Their favourites were the Austin Music and Cortina Trap.
Season 6 of the #EIO40MusicLeague is due to start soon, and there’s space for new players if you fancy a go. Just involves picking 1 new song each week, then ranking the best 5 songs from the 10 others in your league. Repeat for 10 weeks, simple as that! Let me or @indieover40.bsky.social know.
Peter L@peterlatimer6.bsky.social · 3mo agoNow here’s the combined 5 league tables shown together. The column on the right compares the average scoring across all the leagues, including adjusting for any missing scores.

All day Piddington's womminfolk have been telling news how they will be terrified of "hundreds of young men nearby, free to come and go as they please." NOT ONE JOURNALIST has asked: "How did you cope when it was an army base? Who came and went then? Nuns?" Soon as you ask that, all becomes clear.
