  1. Surely by now it should be Grandkids in America

    I didn't watch the X-Factor I saw one episode at my Brother-in-Law's once and I was shocked by the hyperbole. With all the talent shows all you will find is a good safe singer.. You cannot imagine discovering a Kate Bush, David Bowie or Neil Tennant that way. Those that have made it work for them have had to be patient (I think Harry Styles is now becoming the artist he wants to be)
  18. Unfortunately I have memories of my entire family standing in a circle dancing to this at my cousin wedding...

    My wife has decided to preempt this by getting rid of her sixties vinyl but our signed Terry Pratchett first edition hardback collection and my wife's rare Tolkien editions should fetch a bit. We are currently in a debate about CDs. Neither of us trust streaming networks to offer the full range of things that we have on physical media but my wife would love to see the back of my CD collection

    Two hundred years of leather production at Yeovil in peril as Pittards appoint administrators
  23. Three of the last four were in my top 6 wheras dear old Reg was down at No.23 of the final group for me (and saying that I don't hate it just shows how strong the final 25 was)

    I have the opposite problem Baby Biblio has made it perfectly clear that she has no interest in inheriting a complete set of Doctor Who Target novels. However, the house and any cash I have laying around at the time of my demise will be gratefully received.

    I only really know that one because it was on a compilation CD that my daughter bought me for Father's Day (alongside many better songs) This list also contains the only CD single my daughter ever bought
