Paul, Is this Bus Stop? ( The Hollies )

Thank you so much Plummy. xxxx

Here's to Pensioner Power.

Fifteen pink flamingos
All in a row
Will I celebrate sixteen ...
Well ... you never know

Same response Well, no. I don't want to be petty again. We Will Rock You. Oh Peter! You are now in double trouble because not only did you know the Tom Petty song before the title was revealed, you are also correct with ' We Will Rock You '. :) =D> Can you cope with this self inflicted punishment? ...

Hello there Carole.

I see from looking at the Meterboard that you have made a gentle return to rowing. Well done; slow but sure.

Jill xx

Time to give this one up: it was I Won't Back Down. ( Tom Petty )

Better luck with this perhaps ...

You got mud on your face, you big disgrace
Kicking your can all over the place

Hi Plummy.

I have finally reached 15mm - may I have a flamingo please? (I did reach 14mm but the flamingo for that is missing.)

Many thanks.

Love Jill xx

Yes Peter, you and me. More lyrics might help ...

I do hope that you will have an enjoyable and informative time in Japan.

No I'll stand my ground
Won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down

Thank you Paul. Let's see if this one will go just as quickly.

' You can stand me up at the gates of hell '

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

Paul, I was listening to this on my rowing iPod this morning: ' How You Remind Me ' ( Nickelback ).

Plummy, you believe correctly, so an early chocolate Easter egg for you.

I didn't think that this one would last very long as that is correct Paul.

The Beatles wrote the song, hence the Liverpool connection but for extra Brownie Points who was the Sheffield born singer who sang a cover version?

Anyways, over to you.

Thank you Paul; it must have been something to do with my inherited ( paternal grandfather's ) Brummie genes.

My choice has a Liverpool/Sheffield connection:

' Lend me your ears and I'l sing you a song '

Paul, how about Paranoid ( Black Sabbath )?

Peter, your prayers have been answered. :) =D> Over to you. One of the disadvantages of cutting back on my on line time is that I have only just seen your birthday post for Ann. Very belated Birthday Wishes to you Ann and I am so glad that you had such a wonderful time and hope that this coming year...

Thank you Paul.

Hopefully, this one will go quickly too:

And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all

“Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe “

Paul, I have the Patti Smith version; Because The Night.

Now, back to "business", although I am not sure why I want the next turn. Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme. Peter, both Carole and Plummy are correct as the song title is Scarborough Fair. Carole is also correct about the album title. Even though your answer may or may not have jogged Plum...

Thank you Ron and continue to keep carrying the flag for all us retired ‘ youngsters ‘. :) CBA days are only allowed occasionally. :fsbgrin: :fswink: When Richard and I were talking about Whitby today, our favourite seaside place, this particular song came into my head. ‘ Remember me to one who live...

Ron, if this is what I think it is, then I have a 45 rpm copy up in the loft; I've got you babe?

Hi Chris and thank you for your message and well done on the 11kgs weight loss which ( I think ) works out at about 23 pounds. =D> I do hope that you will manage to maintain the slimline look and not let the weight creep back up again. With all that has gone on over the last 3 years, it’s more impor...

Hi Carole, thank you for your health update and I trust that the additional medication has proved to be beneficial in bringing down your BP. Quite a while back, I was reading an article about thunderclap headaches, which apparently can come on very suddenly, after any sort of exertion, especially wh...

paulgould wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 8:59 am Yes Paul, it is indeed Johnny Cash, and the song is a sort of tribute to another C&W star(big clue).

Paul, as the lyrics mention coke and burger, could the song be about Elvis Presley?

Hi Carole. First of all, thank you for the extra family tree info and from your remarks about Sir Francis Drake, it does sound as if he was the English version of Genghis Khan, who also liked the ladies and ( allegedly ) ‘ put it about a bit ‘. :fsbgrin: :fswink: I am sorry that you have been knocke...

See injury thread Will get my 2nd snowman then prepare to fall far down the meterboard Hi Carole, these days, it's not that often that I look at the Training and Racing Thread, so have only now caught up with your situation. I haven't had much time over the last couple of days but tomorrow, I shoul...

Much to Jill's likely annoyance, I recall taking the Flamingos off some time ago as editing Googledocs to shoe-horn them in was a bit of a PITA - so reverted to normal stars anyway. David, I am not annoyed and apologise for having been the root cause of any discomfort to your gluteus maximus. :fsbg...
