'For what died the sons of England, was it greed?' (to paraphrasre the words of Luke kelly). For me it's the most important question asked of today's politics.

Got married 2010, 1st boy 2013, 2nd boy 2015. Skint 2019.

The circle pit looked brutal, however there is always respect in the ''pit'' for the fellow Moshers. If someone falls over they are picked up and brushed down, never raked. Enjoy them before they get too commercialised. Too many bands flounce after a great start.

Another thing that was very significant about the Fontaines concert, was the average age, I would say 45-60. Wherever you looked, lots of old duffers. I was expecting it to be full of kids, sixth formers, college crew etc, but no! And I was so please that’s how it was. Full of the youth of yesterday...

I gave up going to gigs 7 years ago due to babies. Only seen 2 since; Bunnymen and Public Image. Until last week, when I got to see Two. First, ’Fontaines DC’ at the Birmingham institute, great venue. It reminded me of Victoria Hall (twas another great venue) in Hanley, Stoke. Fontaines DC were edgy...

'Centre' a great film too!

''The Life and Death of colonel Blimp'' - Pressburger film (Powell & Pressburger) made some very good films in general. I suppose it's not strictly an 'action' war film, but more of a film thoughout the wars.

Steve The Shadow that was an excellent post. If i was born 5 yrears earlier, i would have loved it to be mine.

Yes spot on Joe. Dead and forgotten. I do like Corbin though and John MacDonald( or is it Mc). Excuse my ignorance but any ideas what an evil upstart monkey is? The words dont seem to fit together. Is it yoof speak?

Its all gone Brexit again. I wonder what John Smith would do about our situation.? I seem to remember thinking i like him and he was a '' good bloke'' but cant recall much about his policies? Maybe one of the best leaders the Labour party never had?
