Interesting fact, post 86 World Cup, Diego Maradona released his very own version of Madonna's big hit entitled "Like a Cheater".

"Like a cheater, handling the fookin ball, but it serves the fookers right for pinching the Malvinas"

[White Riot]

It's been two weeks and it just slows the game down. If people aren't interested in playing, they should just say so, so we can get on with it.

Yeah, agree with that SG.

For many months I've been working full time, plus tons of OT, but still managed to post nominations and vote, even though I've hardly had time to break wind this year

[White Riot]

In fairness, Azkal & Durly are regulars so it's only right to wait for their nominations. As usual I had to prompt BB & immediately she posted her album up

Well it is a lady's prerogative to be fashionably late

Sure Jay can get some good material out of that one

Jay, where are you lad?

[White Riot]

What am I like, Az

I've caught a bug, it's called World Cup fever

Wales, Scotland and Ireland have had their jabs, so they wouldn't get it

[White Riot]

I was a 16yo in 1970, so naturally I loved the 60s/70s

As long as I like the artist and or their music it's kinda immaterial to me in which decade they surfaced or achieved fame.

Plus I find your taste can change at any given time, some music excites me, and other music just leaves me cold.

[Muppet the Cat]

Difficult.....beyond SoD, I've struggled to come up with another 4 that I'd award pts to (more so in this Rd than any other year/Rd yet in either AOTY I or AOTY II)

5pts - Spear of Destiny
4pts - Bronski Beat
3pts - Madonna
2pts - Talk Talk
1pt - REM

Same for me James, so busy I hardly have time to breathe, mate.

Being a punctual type person, I can't stand tardiness. We have a very good friend where we have been late for booked restaurant meals as time passes him by.

Yeah, always punctual myself too Leon. It's not difficult to be on time mate. Slung plenty of people out of training sessions for turning up late.

They remembered to attend on time for the next session
