@ProofreadJulia @London_W4 It used to have a Harry Ramsden’s but even that avenue of pleasure has been closed off

@MichaelLCrick Cricket writer Alan Gibson referred rather elegantly to "the underground cacophony" of New Street Station

@legsidelizzy A friend of mine, he was a very decent club cricketer and played the odd game for Worcestershire seconds, concluded that his time was up when I bowled him first ball

I don’t think he could stand the humiliation

@RockNRoLL_85 @scarlettzone One of the very best ever

@Parody_PM @drdavidbull This is so wonderfully sycophantic

@lee0969 @jillwebb2005 @nikidoog @Carolyn_on_X @FatOldAnarchist @brunstead I remember spending a lot of time driving to clients in June/July 1981 and listened to the radio constantly. That was a favourite, as Was Tenpole Tudor, with Swords of a Thousand Men

@RachelHale9920 This is world class creeping

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@itsjohntiller @WhatHoARat Great version of Farewell Angelina BTW

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@itsjohntiller @WhatHoARat I look forward to hearing it

Those songs that tell a story are wonderful - Black Diamond Bay and Brownsville Girl are particular favourites from a few years later

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@itsjohntiller @WhatHoARat As I Went Out One Morning, Frankie Lee and Judas Priest….

Wonderful songs

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@itsjohntiller @WhatHoARat JWH is a great story telling album too

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@EmmaPR78 It does and, at the time, you don’t have time to stop and think very much

@maisie_toby @guacamole100 I was working on a local geriatric ward in May 1979 and remember an elderly cleaner who was constantly singing Ring My Bell to the patients

Reunited by Peaches & Herb was in the charts then too- perversely, I have a playlist of songs I dislike intensely and that is one of them

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@Guitarbizon You Gotta Walk (Don’t Look Back) by Peter Tosh

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@EmmaPR78 I agree entirely and, if I could turn the clock back, I would make sure that I had more time with them when they were growing up and that I made sure that they had my full attention and I was not always checking my Blackberry (as it was back then). It's time you never get back

[Andrew J. Stilton @AndrewJStilton]

@JoanHenry7 @VintageRockN_85 I remember the boring music that was on the radio at the time and then my cousin put She Loves You on her parents‘ radiogram

Even at six, this was a life changing moment and I never listened to the old lady who swallowed the fly or the hole in the bucket again

Sorry, Dear Liza
