JULIE'S DEAD Julie's dead, Julie's dead Julie's dead, Julie's dead. Glacier Girl and others sigh a sigh of relief.
DEVIL'S ADVOCATE says it's not class but views and ideas that matter.
SANDMAN'S SOX thinks our 'own first' attitude is scary, we're one planet.
SONG OF A WAYFARER says hello. Who, pray, is Jerry?
PETRA is being an attention-seeker by being nasty about us lot on bandwagons.
Phenylphthalein asks if Mark Mcgann has
A DUAL PERSONALITY - CAR ADS/IRISH?
HELLO
Did you know that life is "full, full of surprises" and pretty horrific ones when Cilla Black tells us about them?
Do you think "Cilla" is short for "Cillia" - the little hairs down your windpipe?
I wouldn't be surprised.

MOTORHEAD CONCERT - MANCHESTER APOLLO
From the opening riff of Ace of Spades through to Overkill, Lemmy and the band kept us out of our heads in one sweat-soaked, head-thumping performance.
The support band went down well but the fans were mostly waiting for Motorhead.
Lemmy enjoyed the reception, having lived in the city and not played in England for a while. My ears didn't stop ringing for three days.

QUOTATIONS - A NEW THING FOR ME
"Encourage rather than criticize. No one bowls a bad wood intentionally." - Malmesbury Bowls Club Instructions.
"Glucose Syrup, Preservatives, Malic Acid." - Apple Tango label.
"Children under the age of seven should only use a pea-sized amount and must always be supervised." - Toothpaste label.
There's plenty more if you want them.
Jon EP, who'll have a very large phone bill if he's being really naughty
Let's just say that the quotations
AREN'T REALLY YOUR THING
A BIG FAT THANK-YOU NOTE
I would just like to say a big thanks to the Government for forcing me to take GCSE Technology against my will, and setting an exam with no relevance to the course I'd been taught.
I shall now have a beautiful "F" Grade in the middle of my certificate to repel anyone who considers employing me. Ta Mrs Shephard.

"NELLY, I AM HEATHCLIFF!"
(Cathy to the housekeeper in Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte).
This is not possible:
- Cathy hasn't Heathcliff's genetic make-up
- She is of a different gender
- Even if the above points were overcome, she would still only be a clone

DEBUT REVIEW - PRECINCT 13 REVIEW
It is always fascinating to witness the debut of a potential 'next big thing'.
Named after the cult 70s film 'Assault on Precinct 13', this innovative band turned the tables and attacked their audience without mercy.
From the dubiously metaphorical I Want Your Brown Sauce to the irresistible Sponge, Precinct 13 held their defeated audience in frenzied anticipation.

Are you having me on? Maybe not.
BUT DON'T WATCH THE FILM - SNOOZE
