What’s Your Worst Ever Song?

Posted on November 24, 2012

As a follow up to my favourite ever song list that was compiled for my eldest son and anyone else who was interested, I thought what would be far more entertaining would be a WORST ever song list, an eclectic mix of spine tingling, vomit inducing dross that will have you all sprinting for the sick bucket or simply staving in your computer with your right boot before remorsefully handing over five hundred quid to a care in the community teenager ...

What’s Your Favourite Ever Song?

Posted on November 22, 2012

My eldest son asked me the other day something I regard as  the impossible question... "What's your favourite song of all time?"

Sex and Drugs and Rock & Rock “n” Roll

Posted on August 29, 2012

George went to the Reading Festival at the weekend, leaving as a boy and returning as a man with much of what happened on his weekend away rightly remaining information between him and his peers. Did he have sex? I doubt it. Did he take drugs? I don't think so. Did he drink vast amounts of booze? Most certainly. It's funny that the topic of conversation between me and the dad of his friend on Friday afternoon revolved around our fears of ...
