    Sandy Denny wrote it, and sang it when she was in the strawbs. It appeared on Fairport Conventions Unhalfbricking album when she joined them think I knew that but I couldn't resist.

    Now you're just being picky!;) Happy New Year Tongs!

    WAIT! Just because Duckie hasn't done a thread yet, doesn't mean there won't be one.

    We're only a minute way into 2018 give him a chance!

    On another note that new Lions chairman looks like a good find just been reading his notes ... excellent stuff.

    But my official rant for today 1st Jan. 2018 is the season hasn't kicked off yet, what's that all about?

    We thought the RFU were strict.

    Inaccurate this the sentence should read;  We know the RFU were selectively draconian.

    Colour footage of Brian Bevan right at the end of his career and Thrum Hall (pretty sure the ground still looked much like that when it was demolished). 

     

    Fantastic clip that! Made me think at least some people are interested in our past.

    just a good old equality rant.

    Anything else is a waste of time, breath and typing fingers usage.

    A perfect example are MPs voting to give themselves large pay rises "because they deserve it" while in the same month voting to keep benefits low, or actually cutting them.

    Or very rich Americans getting the lion's share of tax cuts to help them through these difficult periods.

    If the Tories win the next election with anything like a majority that'll be the next manifesto, agenda policy.

    Personally I'm still waiting for the trickle down to reach me!

    Maybe the people would be the times.... or between Clark and Hilldale....nobody covered that!!

    I have some outrageously good memories of teneYeah I heard a funny thing. Somebody said to me. You know that I could be in love with almost everyone. I think that people are. The greatest fun ·ments in Glasgow with that album playing. It was a long time ago. The Maryhill gang are all 9 years older than me..... our lives have changed a lot but we'rall still here and all of us have that album.

    "We're all normal and we want our freedom!"

    I remember a review of this album saying it was amazing to find an album quoting The Marat/Sade!

    "Yeah
    I heard a funny thing
    Somebody said to me
    You know that I could be in love with almost everyone
    I think that people are
    The greatest fun"
