It has to be Slade for me.

The problem is that it needs to be played on a decent disco turntable that'll shove a 1 volt pre-amp signal into a couple of 100 watt Carlsbro slaves & into 20" speakers.

OK so that's the preamp chain and tweeters sorted.... 😊
So long and thanks for all the fish

I knew a great bloke who was a single man in the days when being a single man
did not mean you were a winky, and he said his idea of a perfect Christmas was a hunk of cheese,
a large onion and a quiet mind.

  So, as a single man I'm considered a bit of a 'winky'??  Whatever that might be but I assume it means homosexual. How sad.

Many gays that I've met really are the heart and sole of the party.

I was a nurse for years and always had gay friends but to insinuate that I'm gay because I live alone is just stupid...and offensive to me.

You live alone Zoony 'cos you want to!  I live alone for the same reason?

  People just love to draw inferences.

Ha ha Scrumpy.  I like Fairytale, and Kirsty McColl. On the other hand, I like Oh Holy Night.

Every time I hear the Pogues and Kirsties Fairytale I am reminded of the horrific accident that took her life later. I still smile at the song though.

I did not insinuate that anyone who lived alone was a winky.

Certainly, were my wife to die before me I would live alone (well, with the possible exception of a cat).

What I did do was say that an awful lot of people seem to think, nowadays, that if you live alone you must be a winky.

My mother has 2 female friends who live together.
They live together because they are both widowed and they have been best friends
from school. Theirs names are Fanny and Gay(e) and they have had really
disgusting things thrown at their house, at their car and at them.
