I would say no there isn't, as far as I know there are no (or very few) sports scholarships in the UK...

And there is or course no inter University sporting events to rival College Football or basketball that gets any audience, in person or tv in the UK...

My final stall, I've gone for Yazoo as a wonderful example of their work...

This stall has reminded how so many 80s singles would have a B side that wouldn't be on the upcoming album, don't buy the singles and you'll miss out...

Today's stall has 5 top songs, and Justine is off to 5 top concerts in the coming year, one's I'd love to go to as well especially the 3 bands that are new to me....

Anyway I've gone for Wednesday as this is a top song that builds to great effect....

Today's stall with a great theme...

I've have gone for Ghosts (not Japan or The Jam) as I love how the song builds as it goes along, The Beth's were a close second...

Having missed thus stall yesterday, I've now listened to the songs and my favourite is XTC, bringing back memories of the time I was discovering music back in the day...

5 lovely folk songs but I'm picking Summerfly as it was the song is most wanted to hear again, the voice and the guitar playing worked so well together...
