I love finding and collecting old reviews that have a touch of irony about them. This was written by one Paul Screeton, for the Hartlepool Northern Daily Mail. October 1977. Punk was not his 'thing'.

I just found a newspaper photo of myself in 1989. I don't remember being there. I don't remember it being taken. What is interesting & sad is that those were the days when Inverness Museum had an archaeologist. A curatorial post long axed. They also provided an outreach service & point of contact.

I hope this was a good short summary of the book.

To me they were totally illegal. My late father wrote a song on a err Daniel O' Donnell 1988 chart album. Thomsun pirated on a cassette from Indonesia. Those were the days when songwriters & artists only had to worry about odd pirated cassettes & bootlegs. Every copy was 2p that they nicked from us!

Ongoing Scammer confrontation part 3. I am apparently to be arrested. This is getting serious.

Part 2 of when you confront a scammer, who happens to allegedly be an Admiral/Chief of the American Navy etc.. The pleasure here was all mine.

This made my day..I'll probably be cloned on FB in revenge. I can't believe that there are still women,& men out there, who can't see the catfishers, especially when they use the identities of high ranking naval or military figures. When a random person starts giving scripted compliments you know.

This is a 59 secs. sample of Prince singing 9 Million Bicycles live with the piano removed. Alas Americans always spoil music by unnecessary whooping, cheering and being annoying, instead of shutting up whilst people are singing quiet songs. (Sorry Americans).

I loved it.. It would look nice on my wall! W.M. Glass. 1885-1965.

A good cackle is deserved in vindication. I posted this on Twitter, but will give it an airing here, so I can now delete off my computer. A common saying in the late 19th and early 20th century period.
