That's great news Lena and Harry. I'm pleased you've found a rhyming word for the new Routemaster too, the only words I could think of to rhyme with bendy buses, were trendy trusses! Maybe red, white and blue ones.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I never knew the lyrics to 'Fings' before last weekends 'I.D.A.' Its still very topical - apart from the debs in coffee houses and teds in drainpipe trousers. Certainly the reference about trams and traffic is still very apt! I'm walkin! :wink:

Here is another--from the song "You are my Lucky star" as sung by Michael Feinstein , on "The MGM Album"--one of my favourite cds---maybe not one of my top 5--but definately in my top 10!

"You're my Shearer, Crawford, Hepburn, Harlow and my Garbo"

5 great movie stars.

Ken Bruce was on Countdown today, and Des asked his opinion of the Eurovision contest after Britains entrants and poor scoring now. He jokingly replied that the voting should be changed and left to England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and then said ...the trouble is Scotland wouldn't vote for England. .... Surprise Surprise
