Even though it's a capital idea??
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die.

I went into the Tintin shop, in Bruges. It was quite wonderful (my son, Matthew loves Tintin), but very, very expensive.

It's Yorkshire dialect, Minty!
Owt means anything and nowt means nothing.
So, it means You don't get anything for nothing!, in other words, there's no such thing as a free lunch!

I'm sure you would, Matt! Both Simon and Matthew's song-writing and desire to be musicians comes from the inspiration of The Beatles. In my opinion, to say I love rock music but don't rate The Beatles, is akin to saying I am a devout Christian but don't rate God.

I'm with you on this one, Matt. To me, Elvis was just a progression from the likes of Matt Munro, Andy Williams etc. (And I love Andy Williams!)Matthew Roberts wrote:*snort* Elvis didn't even write his own songs. I don't rate Elvis at all. Now, the Wombles, on the other hand -- there's no denying their influence.
Did the Wombles write their own material? Of course, their biggest fan was Alice Tinker, from Dibley.

Yes, I looked up in my dics.There were only explained the single words but not the whole expression.I never thought of anything to drink and eat -'rather thought of some clouts round my ears .
