Time for Action

This kidnap situation in Africa is unbelievable…200 young girls…and the filthy scum responsible bragging on a video…makes you wonder what the world is coming to….let’s hope the Americans and the SAS catch up with them…see how tough they are then….the authorities over there are under severe criticism but you could never see that coming….let’s hope it gets sorted. It’s Eurovision time again…I’ve seen one of the semi finals….no comment…….They had Bucks Fizz and The Brotherhood of Man singing together on “The One Show”…the latter having beefed out somewhat. I was never a fan of The Brotherhood of Man I always thought they were a third rate imitation of ABBA….and as for their Eurovision “Kisses For Me”..it was a dead rip off of “Tie A Yellow Ribbon”…so much so that we used to go into one from another and see if anyone noticed…..Jay from Bucks Fizz still looks good. They had a programme on Neil Sedaka which was fascinating….and a similar one on Gary Barlowe…and how they went from the top to the bottom very quickly…but what I don’t get is why they complained about lack of money….the royalties for both of them must be none stop with all the hits they had…..what I didn’t know was Sedaka only wrote the melodies…and also when he went down the pan with the rest of them when The Beatles came on the scene he came over here and did the working men’s clubs…just shows you….anyway there both back where they belong. The other week I mentioned the apparent drop in interest in golf….well this week it was announced that the Yanks have noticed this (ahead of our time or what) so much so that they are going to make the game easier by having bigger holes….hmm….15 inches….which would make it easier to play…they have already altered 42 courses… unbelievable….it’s like when they found snooker a bit tricky they invented poole…which is a joke. I’ve just completed an album called DooWop Days…..took me 6 months to make it….it looks back on the golden years of Rock and Roll through the eyes of someone who was there….I’ve sent you a copy…I’m still recovering from the price of the postage…..it’s now over three quid…and to send a LETTER to Ireland its £1.47 (second class)……BUT I can’t see the post office lasting very long at this rate.
