  1. yep, all three we should have got a beer! The Sabbath one was in a Blizzard!
  2. saw a few at Stafford, rush rainbow and ZZ Top and a Dio fronted Sabbath, proper cow shed, but better than Deeside leisure Centre, watching Whitesnake and Kiss with a blanket on the floor covering the Ice
  3. Quo was my first gig, Blackpool Opera House 'Can't stand the Heat' - they got banned for years as the punters wrecked the joint, chairs all over the place!
  4. Where do i start, missd Zeppelin as my first gig was 1980 but seen every solo gig by Plant and Jimmy Page, saw the Who 3 times and Stones Bowie Springsteen Prince etc Lots of Hard Rock/Metal acts including Judas Priest when they were supported by a new band called Iron Maiden, and lots of gigs like Lizzy, UFO, Kiss, Ozzy with Randy RIP and Sabbath and Purple too. One of the best ones was Floyd doing the Wall at Earls Court (first time in that London too!) Unfortunately prices are now ridiculous, for me and the missus to get a gig in with travel and food its around the £200 mark! Lots of happy memories, still got 90% of my tickets too.
  5. Not the Council I work for and not my local TO's either.
  6. sad news, she was superb on the Who's Tommy as the Acid Queen and did one of the best covers of Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love.
  7. My first swifts were back on the 7th, North west UK...
  8. Looking at that crash I would be surprised if my underpants where still in a state in which I could wear them...
  9. Unfortunately his response 'people will pay the price' sounds a little like he could be waiting outside the school gates!
  10. 'the climate emergency' alarmist noise being by far the largest threat to all that breath air that's ever been attempted. Good luck with that one feller, its happening and effects us everyday, my 5 Grandkids will feel the difference I am sure and as ever its all down to the politics of greed.
  11. its not just Attenborough, you should have noticed that over the last 2 decades the amounts of insects hiting the front of your vehicle when driving distances as decreased to practically nothing. I have run a light trap to monitor moths on various sites and to collect my data for home, twenty years ago I was literally shovelling out large moths like yellow Underwings, trapped by the hundreds, these days I am lucky to hit double figures
  12. It does and can happen, but you are storing up all kinds of hassle and trouble after five years.
  13. 'Could I see your Risk Assesment please?'
  14. this place is an absolute cess pit at times, I hope you get sorted Eggs...
  15. My band at the time was the Ponddwellers with local legend 'Mad Clive' happy daze! Citadel has been through the wars in the last few years but still up and running and taking bookings for 2023, seen loads of good bands there including Fairport a few times.
  16. My band supported him in the late 90's at the Citadel in St.Helens, great guy and small world!
  17. Trees are a 'material consideration' in terms of planning, it is not unusual in my experience for them to ask for plotted RPA details.
  18. Not oversubscribed Police presence wise here but shortly to be boosted by the fine I'll need to pay for doing 35 in a 30 Zone - probably overtaking the local crackheads and lunatics discussed above...
  19. Snap! Same system but no converter yet - pretty much trial and error, thanks for getting back to me and PM me with any tips!!!
  20. Great photographs mate - can I be really boring and ask what your camera set up is? Just splashed out on some new gear and far from getting results like those!
  21. Speaking as someone who would be assessing I would need to know - condition of the tree and likely lifespan a plan with plotted RPA calculation future 'livability' issues extent of incursion details of 'no dig' methodology Details of the Arb Consultant who supplied the above.
  22. badgers normally have latrine pits to mark territory, hedgehog is a good shout.
  23. Doesn't work like that, we have alleged damage with scant evidence and the Application has been refused, so as I and others have said get independant advice and resubmit, the Council does not own the tree they are doing their duty under the T&C to conserve.
  24. Why would the Council cover the cost if no real evidence has been provided?
  25. He's like most of them, doesn't know if he wants a shit or a haircut...
