Are we talking The Animals and Tobacco Road here??

Thanks all - however - I've just heard from the surgeon and he wants to see me next Monday and has scheduled surgery for May 7th!!! - way ahead of what was initially proposed. I'll be taking that opportunity. Looks like it's hospital food for my birthday though! Maybe not a good idea to mix 61 lit c...

So, 12 days since the procedure so we are beyond the maximum waiting period to see if it made any difference...and it didn't, not a jot. I'm back to where I've been since the turn of the year, taking pain pills to get through the day (tramadol added as a back-up in case the others don't cut it). I h...

Awesome Ian, tremendous FM and deserves far more plaudits than it's getting...

I thought it might have been used before but my search said not. All yours Jill...

This should go in about 3 seconds...

I hear you singing in the wire
I can hear you through the whine

I didn't google the words but looked up a track list for Prince - and reckon by a process of elimination that it's - Sign Of The Times...?

OK - from the latest lyrics I'm pretty sure that's a Prince song...but which one...hmmm

Well done everyone - great effort all round - sorry I was a bit useless this year. I chucked in a few so hopefully that helped a tiddly bit.

Thanks all. Day 1 post "procedure" = still sore, no improvement but at least allowed to take pain pills again. Apparently it can take a "few days" so fingers crossed. I'm convinced it'll end up needing surgery but... Rob - tendonitis is fairly common in rowing I think. I've had i...

Originally John Fogarty (CCR) but yes, from the 80's: Status Quo - first act for Live Aid

Well done Colin. Star awarded (no move up the table though, so it looks like you'll have to carry on to the next one )

One from the 80's

And I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it

Not headed out yet and just checked in. Is this Del Shannon - Runaway?

If correct, someone else can chuck another one up..

It was "Drop The Pilot".

I'm having a bit of an op tomorrow so someone else is welcome to step in with the next one - maybe you Wolfie because you were nearly there on this one

Nope - not that one...this is off a 1983 album.

Almost there Wolfie...

I'm sorry to hear that Plummy. I was hoping you were slowly on the mend. Fingers crossed the injection helps, but it doesn't sound like that is going to be the long-term fix for this. Thanks Jon - yeah - it's a sticking plaster at best really. The thought that the state I'm in now is the potentiall...

Heard this one the other day and thought this line interesting:

Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual

Further update and there's no good news to report. The follow up MRI still showed a significant disc bulge pressing on the nerve so after 6 months it's pretty clear that this isn't going to sort itself out. I have a spinal epidural now scheduled for next Tuesday which "might" deal with som...

House of the Rising Sun

Darn... (just got it as well)...

Solid Gold star awarded Ron - no wobbly ones awarded even for wobbly metres. Onwards to 6 million now sir!

That's a cracking HM Ian - super effort. Beats my best ever (1:24:24.xx)

No matter what the distance and ignoring the physical side of things, it's good for the mental health to just be moving.
