Toast 16,129 Posted February 6, 2011 Parisienne Walkways That is something that has always irritated me. It should be Parisian Walkways. It's in English. If it was in French, the feminine form of the adjective might be acceptable depending on how one translated 'walkway', but either way it would be plural. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted February 15, 2011 scraping the barrelll but if anybody seen This Morning, this morning, a band of really old people where on called "The Zimmers" i think they were new i turned over but theres alot of them and they are all ancient, and if they make it big could pass as famous enough... maybe. Joan Bonham, the mother of long deceased Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham and latterly the lead singer of The Zimmers, has died at the age of 81. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

time 8,586 Posted February 23, 2011 Poly in 1997 on Never Mind The Buzzcocks Never Mind The Buzzcocks without Noel Fielding, those were the days. Dont you mean Never Mind The Buzzcocks with Shawn Hughes, those were the days. When Sean Hughes left I was worried that the show would somehow lose its appeal, but Bill Bailey proved more than an adequate replacement. Similarly, when Mark Lamarr left but even with Simon Amstell it was worth watching, until Noel Fielding took residence. I've only watched intermittently ever since, only making an effort if there was a guest host I thought might warrant it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted March 12, 2011 Nilla Pizzi has died aged 91. The name will probably mean nothing to anyone here but for those of us who grew up in an Italian household there was always a Pizzi album dragged out at least twice a year. She won the first ever San Remo festival. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trash 2 Posted March 14, 2011 Ya gotta hate it when your hard core rock'n'roll lifestyle is brought to an abrupt end by a farming/gardening accident. And them'uns died young, too. I would just hate to die in a gardening accident. And if they say the best die young then I better be watching my steps. Rich Hall, as Otis Lee Crenshaw does a song about this very thing.... hi lighting from Toto, drummer Jeff Porcaro, some lines I recall below. "It wasn't fast cars or aeroplanes, it wasn't alcohol or drugs, (can't remember the next line, sorry)..., it was shrubbery and bugs!" "They weren't injecting needles, they were trying to kill beetles." "....A toxic cloud leaking from a barrel of DDT, the only drum he never learned to play, carried him away!' Saving the best til last..... "He fought the lawn and the lawn won!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
