He’s always hiding the back of his hand, I wish someone would ask him about it.

Blimey that’s just transported me back a few years 😊. I’ve actually still got my copy somewhere.

Yes! One of the first singles I bought, great tune. A wonderfully fast and tinny sound if I recall.

Paul Stanley seems to be wearing more makeup than he does on stage.

Spike! 😊

The night will never stay,
The night will still go by,
Though with a million stars
You pin it to the sky;
Though you bind it with the blowing
wind
And buckle it with the moon,
The night will slip away
Like sorrow or a tune.

I’ve twice now added it to my boycott list and unsubscribed, unfortunately the alternatives don’t work for me for one reason or another.

Mine was completely skewed this year as Charlie uses it too, turns out he really likes Black Sabbath! Managed 181 different genres tho 🤷

I did skydiving too, honestly it’s one of the best feelings I’ve had but yes trust in the equipment is needed 😬

Yes please, quite like heights, here I am abseiling down Spinnaker tower in Portsmouth.

I think I saw Snaggletoothed Vegan at Reading once.

I love that we have an established and successful festival in Portsmouth but it’s really not for me and that’s fine.

This band are one of my all time favourites.

“No I said I want Bic lighters!”

I was about to be born! 😀

Chinny Reckon! (I realise this is a very niche UK reference )

No it can’t be 😩.

What’s up with his voice? A little too much of the Ol’ Bubba over the weekend? 😬

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?
Ah 1982, the year I really got into non chart music! I heard my first psychobilly (The Meteors) and my musical life changed forever. So much exciting music came out, but I can’t choose between these very different albums.

Metal Mickey.

I remember reading a book about the ‘making of’ when I was a teenager, it only added to my love of the film.

Best Bond film imho.

Well he’s a bit of a bellend.
