Now now Puggy...........football is never a bedfellow in my viewpoints on Ireland besides which Celtic never adopted sectarian business practices..........unlike others. JTB

If you're talking in the last 10 years, I think you'll find it was protestant men throwing rocks at catholic schoolchildren. JTB

My "o" represents the manly and straight Homepride Flour man. Your "Ø" represents the ever so slightly gay and effeminate Homepride Flour man. So there! JTB

Welcome Walace. How's Gromit? JTB

I would have but for the fact that she's freakin hopeless at taking off quantities. She could have gone for me paper though. JTB

Isn't the Pope infallible? i.e. He doesn't make mistakes. JTB

Of course you are all aware that the world's greatest derby takes place this Saturday. JTB

I agree...........he's missing the point! JTB

It's a panAAAARRRai of course!

Sound advice as always Bill. JTB

So he's an Aussie Ken?..............In which case I'd leave well alone! JTB

Goyalt!

...or you could get someone else to do it for you. JTB

As a mod I can think of a quick, sharp way of shortening this thread. JTB

Here's a lovely song by Joe Walsh in open G tuning: Help_me_thru_the_night_by_Joe_Walsh.doc JTB

I'll give you an insight into my train of thought..............time for a new one! JTB

Picture the scene.......... The PP research and design team sitting in the office at 3.00 o'clock on a Friday afternoon in the seventies and some adoring English West country PP fan has sent them a couple of flagons of Scrumpy Jack and a 3rd Edition copy of 'Sailing & Whaling Songs of 19th Century' by Paul Clayton. The boss runs in and screams that they need some blue sky thinking to come up with something that will compete with the Submariner market...............before Monday!!!..... or old man Stern is going to sack them all and cash his chips in with Rolex! That Scrumpy Jack is one powerful drink! JTB

Just to keep the ball rolling, here's one written by an Englishman and an Aussie. Strange collaboration indeed. Anyways.......it's called 'Persuasion' - Richard Thompson and Tim Finn. Capo at the second. JTB Persuasion_in_B.doc

Great song by The Boss. Yeah the timings of the chord changes are a wee bit premature but hey after a few bars you've got it sussed. Even this soon this tells me that this could be one awesome thread. Many thanks ape. JTB

Not sure if this will work but got to thinking that it would be good to post some of our favourite songs with tabs and/or chords for the guitar players amongst us. I've attached the file as a Word document and hopefully it will work. I chose this..........not because of the Michael Jackson version but because there are one or two better versions out there. My particular favourite is by Clive Gregson. Not too easy to come by but if anyone wants a copy, I'll be happy to send it. Anyways it was written by Tom Bahler and for my money one of the best modern day ballads written since J & P were doing it for fun. Look forward to other contributions. JTB Shes_Out_of_My_Life.doc

Yep.....excellent photos Kostas and looks a real fun day out. JTB

Actually Rico.....in 'The Loft' standing ootside with a pint of Oirish and looking down at the world going by on a summers evening can be a most pleasurable experience. JTB

This is weird. I'm at work and I'm still seeing Gravo when I should be seeing JVOH. JTB

Is "the device" being used prior to having some publicity shots taken, perhaps? JTB

Ashton Lane then. JTB
