Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I discovered today that one of my school colleagues was a founder member of the 80s group Soul II Soul and I was on a sailing holiday with him in the early '70s. He's been an audio engineer for a long time now, which, among others, gives me a Kevin Bacon score of 3 handshakes to Tom Jones :)

Bob!
I was in the office the day Suzi Q picked up her bus pass. That was a few years ago.

Saw Altered Images for a 'Rock goes to College' recording at Chichester Festival Theatre.

Agree. Remember being utterly confused that people as cool as The Motels were on the same planet as me.

Iā€™m sure at the time there were far, far cooler bands but there was something about the RGTC Motels show that really got under my skin.

Weath Welcome šŸ‘
Please feel free to lurk, snooze, talk about taking poo samples, hijack the Conquercise thread to discuss un-Conquercise related topics, and anything else really.
Just pull up a chair and make yourself at home.

Are there any advantages to look forward to going forward from this point apart from being a youngster in a new age category?

Poo samples, aches and pains, increasing nasal hair and still being too far from retirement to be of any use are not things that excite me when thinking ahead .... šŸ˜‰

Hi Weath. You're probably too young to remember Suzi Quatro.

Welcome Weath, and happy birthday for yesterday!

Advantages? Erm....
I ache less in my 50's than I did in my 40's, but that's down to my lifestyle choices.
Dunno - cheaper car insurance, maybe?
