  1. Talkin' about versions I can't make up my mind between Richard Thompson, Paul Burgess and Paolo Nutini on this one at all. I have all three and never really tire of any of them, maybe because the song is so great "It ...really doesn't matter at all! To quote Marc Bolan and to finish with Marc. "Life's a gas.....Hope it's gonna last!"
  2. i was listening to the Stereophonics version but I like this one a bit more ...
  3. It's not just the NHS either my wife and I worked at the same place and so got made redundant together and the rigmarole was incredible, It was like we were the authors of our own fate.
  4. This and wasn't sure if it sure be on here or the EU or the General election thread
  5. Feeling more like a Treiziste than Leaguie today so......along with a few more Variety Francaise
  6. Roast chicken in smoked paprika and a few tunes like ... A very different mood when you put the stuff together.
  7. Nothing too wrong with a bit of Jake, Robin. Does that make you Shere Khan?
  8. "If You Leave Me I'll Go Crazy" - James Brown "Coming Home" - Leon Bridges "Good Morning Heartache" - Sam Cooke "Fast Train" - Solomon Burke "You and Me" - Penny and The Quarters "No I'm Seeing" - Michael Kiwanuka "I Just Don't Know What to do With Myself" - Chris Farlowe "Every Little Bit hurts" - The Spencer Davis Group "I Wonder" - Chris Isaak And ......
  9. Thanks for the heads up I'll give that a go! I usually like to have two or three books on the go at once and at the moment they are : The Sirens of Titan - Kurt Vonnegut, Writing Home - Alan Bennett and My Name is Red - Orhan Pamuk
  10. I expect references to the dark side and giving it some good natured stick for not being the real thing but not whole swathes of discussion. It struck me how little of our history actually has anything to do with the dirty word.
  11. I love RL's history and heritage but why is there a discussion about a yawn team here? And especially one that has shown itself capable of doing the dirty if they're settling out of court as appears to be the case. I don't want to debate yoonion or any other sport on here. I certainly don't like them interfering with our TGG legacy, culture, tradition, custom and inheritance. To use a movie metaphor or simile here, in historical importance terms they wouldn't merit a bit part or walk on role in our history they're more of the appearance of Quentin Jerome Tarantino's thumb for film nerds. And what's more I don't give a monkeys about how hugely chippy this sounds, although you might not believe this I'm not having a go at ru just reminding people this is a TGG forum and who cares where some outpost kfc plays or doesn't play?
  12. Christmas day where, Futtocks? Great picture made it part of my gallery!
  13. Very interesting and thank you for your explanation of both these issues. Do you think the willy wavers join in on purpose to make that happen? Of course the history of the game is cross code that's why I was concerned it might disappear. Maybe TGG should have two birthdays like the Queen?
  14. Now padge I have to ask, after following the link, are you trying to get this thread moved to CCF? I know it's our history, I know Hadfield's a league journalist, I know it's a league thread,question post, but that doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't have the criteria for being walked! Like Johnny Cash you "Walk the Line"
  15. Castleford Halfacre made me think of how imperial measures might have formed our nicknames from the start. Bushels, Pecks and Chains come to mind. Sounds like a good game to me, anyone any ideas?
  16. I don't know but what a great name and what a pity it's not still with us!
  17. No that was Open Rugby and is very much missed!
  18. "I do not "want it to end badly" where on earth do you get that rubbish from?" I am glad about that! Did you not say it will not end well at least once? "I am not the one going round insulting Marwan Koucash" - Again the misspelling I asked you about ! I don't think I accused you personally of attacking the good doctor and if I did that was completely unintentional and not the aim of what I wrote! I do find much criticism of SRD and MK to be questionable and I find it hard to understand what motivates people in this direction??
