Sting...Coffee and Sir Cliff

Big hoo hah about the intention of Wetherspoons opening up a place on the motorway….”It will encourage drivers to drink”….”Those struggling to abstain will be tempted”….…the reason for the complaints is probably because Wetherspoons do cheap good value food and cheap COFFEE … unlike the present rip off service stations….and maybe PASSENGERS would like a pint…I’m a big fan of the ‘Spoons .. go get ‘em guys.

Two more items of scary news this week….full out announcement - “shower gel could have a bad effect on pregnant women’s babies…and they must avoid eating food which has been plastic wrapped”…this is from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynacologists (imagine working there and having to say that every time someone asks you where you work)….but they later added that this is only an assumption…so let’s scare everyone first!!........ALSO there are KILLER jelly fish in the Med….purple ones !!....a jellyfish is like a nettle…they don’t chase you and in virtually every case you rub a bit of ammonia on the sting…end of….BUT NO everyone get your harpoons ordered….it’s hell out there !!!

There are new motoring laws coming in soon….it’s an on the spot fine of £60 for tailgating…and for hogging the middle lane on the motorway…I’m all for this but I don’t know how they are going to enforce this…also use of mobile phones while driving fines go up from £60 to £100…and driving without insurance from £200 to £300…..personally I think anyone driving without insurance should get a life ban….all good stuff but it wont make a blind bit of difference…you’ll still see the loonies out there.

There was a discussion on the tele about lack of quality time served entertainers on TV….people who are professional…all we get are amateur talent shows (which do my head in)…but I think the whole business is struggling because “stars” were charging too much….a pal of mine Paul Williams… ran a club in Birkenhead and back in the early 80’ people like Anita Harris were allegedly charging 3 grand……not worth it…but it crippled the game.

NOW talking of major celebs…your mate Cliff has been on tele pushing his latest tour….I must say he looks very well…..now don’t get me wrong…I LIKE Cliff but he is always on a high telling us that his latest tour has had rave reviews and that he has sold x million records etc etc….we KNOW…we were THERE Cliff…….just give us Livin’ Doll and we’ll all be happy.
