A little bit more of your background here as well Paul: http://www.bedlington.co.uk/audioarchive.html/_/paul-mann-the-leek-club-r11 Hope you are well.

On a good day the kids (me) might get a balloon! If the R&B men were caught in the act of nicking stuff out the back yard!!

Let`s start with a classic from 1978. As heard on Synergy... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V88yyayq6AY

Too much of a Gentleman to gloat Malcolm!

I can`t remember if there is a way of turning it off. It drives me mental! Bah humbug!!

Sorry. I should have explained the pic... Me, Big Vic & the 1973 FA Cup.

Eggy. Excellent! I`ve been looking for an excuse to show this again: Many thanks for that!

Good to hear that Maggie. I went to Ashington Tech. in the early 70s with Richard (Rocky) Stone. He died very young of a heart attack if I remember correctly. He was a tall, fit, talented sportsman & a very nice guy.

Bought my very first single at Olivers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkM7uWBjUrI

Nutter indeed. A video fit for "Youtube At It`s Best" thread.

And I was too young!

The first Head (in my 39 years of working at KEVI Morpeth) was George Chapman. An excellent, eccentric chap who always kept a huge sweet shop sized jar next to his desk. He took great pleasure in chucking a Black Bullet at you when you did something he valued. A dim view was taken if you didn`t catch it. Especially if you played on the staff cricket team. He gave them out at important meetings also. To not instantly suck on said sweet was frowned upon. Popular folklore says that it was to gag any opposing views the assembled might have! Simple but brilliant ploy!

Happy Birthday Gggg. Enjoy the day!
