Somebody, somewhere, has a cassette tape of me ( lead vocals and rhythm guitar) and some mates belting this ( and 'All the Young Dudes') out in a garage in 1976... always been a favorite thing.

Dad's dad was a railwayman working in a goods yard. Dad's mum worked in the Co-op grocery shop. Mum's dad was a crane operator in a steelworks. Mum's mum worked in a wool-dyeing factory.
Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?

Trump: "The parks are getting all new grass. I have a man who's a fantastic man, one of the biggest grass-growers. He's actually a very rich guy. He wants to fix up the parks. All brand new grass.

Showing my age here, but I used to enjoy a walk in that park in the days before there were any skyscrapers on Canary Wharf, then a wander down into Greenwich for a pie and a pint or three... back in the '80s when the world was young and so was I...
