  4. Nobody spills my wine. I even fell asleep last night with quarter of a glass in my hand. Not a drop spilt. Then again it wasn't bloody liebfraumilch. You can spill all you like of that stuff.

    That can't be the first time I've heard that song but I can't remember it. Very enjoyable.

    Cheers, MJ.

  5. DP: Of course now I can't get it out of my head.

    Geoff: Ah, the milk of the blessed mother.

    I too fell asleep with a glass of wine but there was spillage. I'm losing my touch.

  8. MJ, I had this song in my head the other day. Remember when Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince of Bel Air sang this? His version was funny.

  11. MA: I know you were a kid. Just teasing. But really... did you at least get his number for future reference?
    *wonders what other Northern bands MA's been sharing a cuppa with*

  13. HE: I like the spacy sixties sound. And of course no 60s concert was complete without a light show.
