  4. Another factor in play was that there were others I like. So it was a matter of getting behind the ones less likely to attract hate.

    Words We Dislike

    I really don't like the expansion of "grab" to mean have, get or obtain. "Let's grab a coffee" Such a rude, pushy expression. In the words of Depeche Mode The grabbing hands grab all they can All for themselves, after all

  12. I must be doing it wrong. I'll have a play around with it.
  13. Still working on mine. First batch nearly ready. Not easy to find a comprehensive list other than go through the UK charts archive week by week - but the site gets so slow that it eventually dragged my computer down with it and I had to stop. Unfortunately the every hit site concentrates on the best-sellers so doesn't cover every song, and will be less and less useful as we delve further down the chart. I do have an old book of British Hit Singles which is handy for checking peak positions, but you have to know what to look for. Being old is an advantage there

    I don't remember any indication that his death was imminent, more likely a few months away.

    The English Language

    Do we have a thread for unfortunately phrased reporting? "The pressure on Mr Cottrell comes at a time of turmoil in the Church of England following a damning report into how it covered up prolific abuse by the barrister John Smyth." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cz7qpdl4jdyo

    I agree with Ulitzer. People should not be wiped from history because of their transgressions.

    Sorry to hear that. They're not really my cup of tea but a friend is an avid fan of Johnny and I did go and see them with her back in the summer. She'll be gutted.

    Room Lovely, Look You.

    Today I wanted some frozen roast potaoes (yeah, lazy, I know). There weren't many left in Sainsburys but there was a section full of these with no price on them. I scanned one, and they were priced at 50p. They are £1.90 on Tesco site. I got three. Result!
