    Keep on sharing your thoughts.... it's entertaining :D:D:D

    When I was in consultancy, I worked on a project at the BBC and was based at shepherds bush green for a while. When the weather was nice, we used to sit on the green. Talk about strange people.... AND they ALL came to sit near me or talk to me :eek: Why??? Do I look that strange as well that they thought I was a kindered spirit :eek:

    Lol :D Oh no, I get all the freaks and weirdos too - never quite figured out why that was. Paris was the worst - I used to go and sit at the pond in Trocedero after work with my walkman and a book (as a silly little 17 year old girl, just thinking 'oh that looks nice') and there would be at LEAST 2 in the space of half an hour - the most memorable :rolleyes: was this guy whose chat up line was 'do you know there are crocodiles in there who only eat Japanese tourists?' he then went on to tell me that my eyes are like diamonds and they'll have to open a new hospital when I leave Paris for all the men with broken hearts :rolleyes: . He was an interesting one... :eek: Oh my god, I AM fucking crazy, amn't I? :D
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    Lol, I know.. it got my attention anyway cos obviously he said it in French and when I translated in my head I thought 'what the fuck? I must have it wrong' but he went into more detail though :rolleyes: . Best chat up line I ever heard was 'smile if you fancy me' - simple but it REALLY works :D

    :eek: Hmmmmm... well fuck!!!!!!!!

    I dunno... when ya think of bands who havent been together in a long time and then get back together ya think like Pink Floyd or The Who but they have played together. 35 years??? That would be 1971? The Beatles? :o Lol, I'm crap at this game.

    Even at my grand old age, I have difficulties in thinking of a band that hasn't played together for 35 years and still has all it's members alive (and is a band from the UK, it would seem)!!

    Storytellers was just lovely chimey :) . Well my sister and her boyfriend stayed up to watch :rolleyes: and MADE NOISE!!!!!!!! The bastards :mad:

    I like that song he did - the one that used to be about the state of mississippi or something.

    Useless uninteresting fact of the day my Dad was friends at school and Sunday school with one of the guys in Ten Years After. Not quite as good as V V's friends I know :o

    I only know who they are because of my Dad knowing them. As well as being friends with one we are from the same town and my Dad played in bands aswell so they played all the same clubs. Was cool watching them on the footage of Woodstock though :)

    Just on the club circuit around Nottinghamshire / Yorkshire. Did play on the same bill as Joe Cocker sometimes (when his name was Vance :D). My Dad is a bass player :o

    EDIT: Forgot to say Live at Sin-E arrived last night :D:D:D
