:eek:

That's some chaperoning!


Entertain you? Why, do you feel stupid and contagious?

I'm not sure I get your drift.
I love Streets of London! It was in the charts at the time that my sis and I were spending our school holidays in London. I think - I haven't bothered to look it up :) It was certainly on our radar.

Are you saying we're depressing?
Depressive?
Depressant?
Okay, I'm being silly now (was working on French verbs there)

You've asked for Brit comedy before.
So I can't remember what you've had and what you haven't.
And more so, what's on YouTube and what isn't.
But if anything comes up that really tickles my fancy, I promise to let you know.

In the mean time, you might have seen this, but it's worth a second look. I think. As the DVD commentary says, "Every series deserves a musical number." But perhaps you have to be as viscerally affected by the Shearsmith as I am to be moved by his Christie. Oh yumyumyum. The outrageous rhymes make me laugh more than is sane :)

PS, realised the above might sound a bit combative. Wasn't meant to.

exactly....you know and love it, Brits of our age love SOL and the Merkins love SHA and even if they don't, they know them and will sing along (maybe just in their heads) because it's a "home" song. And both songs are about just feeling good about being alive, but they are very different styles and one's all about the music and one's all about the words.

I guess I should have included the word similarities as well as differences.

Combative, yeah, but only bcause you go the impression I was saying one was better than the other, which I wasn't. They both irritate the shit out of me and I know all the words :lol:

As long as you're entertaining us, Mon; which is you and which the stepsister?

Are you on the right, monster?

hint1: My parents did not allow me to wear jeans :rolleyes:

hint2: my mom was the chaperone on that trip. *sigh*

step-sister is the one in the blue V neck with glasses. Haven't met her since she's been my stepsister. In fact since we were in the choir together. I understand she has something like 6 kids. :eek:

Which makes you the cutie in the blue sweater and the pink skirt?

But. But. Assuming that's your Mom next to you, how come she gets to wear jeans?

BTW, you look remarkably like Mrs. Dar at that age.

White shirt, red skirt (and knee socks), blue cardi. Very patriotic. My mom still picked my clothes then. *sigh*

They're not jeans, they're cords :lol:

the date on the back of the photo says 1980, so I was 9.

(shakes head at Monster). You know what I say about boredom!

hey, I didn't stay bored. I made a thread to entertain me ;)

with vidies, too!

Sorry - I don't get either acronym :(
And I tried and tried...! I love LtoG, that's about as far as I can go.

And re combative - it wasn't that I thought you were dissing UK comedy. No-one with sense would, right? :)
It's something I have no insecurities about, certainly not when discussing it with anothe Brit.
It was simply that I went back to review my spelling and thought I sounded arsey. Which I may be.

Another clip from Psychoville.
Creepy one this time.
Show it to your children. Tell them this is the justice English childer are dealt...

they were abbreviations of the song names
