Sounds great Kev, and I'd love to join you but 'I gavel alone' You'd have to hold it at Bidds though, surely?

Hey up Irish, how's you lad? I'll see your Pilgrim Of Sorrow, and raise you a Jesus Wash Away My Troubles Pure, soaring, mournful gospel genius. Some amazingly sad soulful ballads already posted, so I was trying to think of some on a more uplifting and/or danceable soulful tip. I'd have to go for JP Robinson, Our Day Is Here. Sad & happy at the same time, the vocal really tugs at my heartstrings. Or maybe Donny Hathaway, Love Love Love. Tee

Hiya Russ, have you got this pic with us & Jeff Perry already? It's one of Julie's. Happy days mate xx

In that case Mr Byrne I look forward to drawing myself up to my full five feet four and a half inches, looking you directly in the eye, and saying hello Fab line-up, all credit to Crozzer for pulling it together once again. Mr Crowsfeet have we got Adam this year or will he be on his pesky honeymoon?

Hey up smiley mop top The South London Massive is very much looking to this

My goodness, what must you think of me? Wine & chocolates aren't compulsory to make me come to one of your nights Moldie! I also accept Morgans Spiced & most varieties of cake

I would've been up for half of them Moldie - some of my faves in there as you well know, Intrepids & Four Tracks especially And did someone say there was cake as well? Can't believe you didn't ring me! Mind you, you probably wanted all the food for yourself as usual Tee x

Ha ha, only just saw this Andy. Ahh, them were the days & no mistake, lol, Wimbledon to the Griffin in Leeds in 2 hours flat. On the way to the Ritz once we had to stop because Lucy said her head was imploding from the G-force. Nothing to do with the gear obviously It's not the same now I have to drive the Price Family Bus

"Owner Jeff Horton has assured London radio station XFM that the shoe company's corporate presence will be discreet. But MOJO wonders, will the new partnership keep the Working Men's Club dcor - unchanged since 1973 - the Northern Soul nights and the wafting, burgery odours? Not that we've ever eaten anything in there. Ever. Have you? Answers on an electronic postcard, please!" My grandparents told me they used to eat Chinese food at the 100 Club in the 60s when going to see jazz bands. They're both dead now. I'm not sure if there's a link

Ahh Dave, they were proper happy days for me Lots of the London crew in that fab modern room, with everything from 70s to new releases being played. Met loads of great people and made some really good friends. Did the modern room close an hour before the end? I remember everybody going downstairs to join the oldies crowd for the last few numbers each time. And I agree, how bloody long did it seem from the M1 to Bretby, at 30mph with speed cameras round every corner? The first hundred miles used to flash by in what seemed like minutes, and the last bit was an eternity

Wish I'd taken some snaps of you four dancing in the Stafford services carpark John Here's a link to my pics from the night, Facebookers feel free to tag: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=40824&id=100000639130027&l=26486df74a

Hate to heap insult on injury lesbian features, but you're gonna need a hair shirt too It was a blinder. Packer from start to finish, great mix of uptempo tunes, atmosphere buzzing, dancing like sardines (except Simon who I like to think of as the 'soul tuna' amongst us), friendly accommodating bar staff, birthday boys & girls suitably spoilt, old friends coming out of the woodwork, new friends absolutely charming, and wall to wall crumpet*. *OK, so I lied about that bit. Happy birthdays to Stevie Sawdust, Angie Lawrence (who looked amazing) and the lovely Sonia who we refuse to believe is actually 50. Woody I think you escaped a birthday snog from me - be afraid, be very afraid I apologise to everyone I spoke complete arse & parsley to - but in the talking bollocks Olympics, Kev H you definitely steal the gold. For future reference Kev, no I don't think the baked potato thread is a good idea, and I have no desire to discuss what sort of filling I prefer. Pervert, lol. I took a million pictures, but I'm just in Photoshop applying the red eye reduction, checked shirt filter, shiny pate suppressor, Diddy & Willie resizer, gurn rectifier & sequin glare minimiser. I may be some time. A fine job overall done by that DJ chap that looks like a young Yul Brynner, and Sean 'I was hardly nervous at all about the whole thing' Haydon. The only criticisms I would make were that there wasn't enough room, there was no Babycham on draught, and the ladies toilets need to be less like Stalag 17 to escape from. At least the first of those is a problem of success, so pat yourselves on the back and apply to Burnley Council for planning permission to extend. I'll leave you with the quote of the night from a young male member of bar staff chatting outside... "Have you seen all the old folks in there? They're bang on one having a brilliant time. By heck I hope I'm like that when I get to 70 too!" Tee x

Ahh, that Lifeline floorfiller Thanks Godz, lots of fun. My kids have had no tea and my husband is revolting.

Dianne Elliott?

Mmm, normally hangs out with a lot of other continentals

Who do you think supplies Eccles with all his answers? For a white geezer, is his record a bit on the dark side?

Godz, listen very carefully, I will say this only once Would I be correct in saying that the girl with this gentleman might be called a Bimbo?

Less of your sauce Atkinson, you might get a Frube if you're lucky. You know how desserts go straight to your hips anyway

Yep, best not to park the Vanquish in Brixton Baz Or in fact, drive through Brixton in it at any less than 70mph You'll just have to travel with the public. I've decided I'm going to drag myself to this by hook or by crook, so get me a ticket when you're ordering yours Mr A and I'll buy you a nice Caribbean dinner before the gig. There's a new sofabed at Price Mansions if you want it, though the kids will bounce on you from 6am next morning wanting you to play Playstation, lol. Anyone else coming down, you're very welcome, though you may have to share a bed with Baz. Crash Bandicoot experts preferred

I'm just groaning because the London gig is the day after the Rugby anniversary and I'll be absolutely wretched, lol.

Us too Tone, it's about time the South London Massive carried out a cross-border crumpet raid into Yorkshire And I haven't been since satnavs were invented so may not need to circle the area for hours looking for the venue either I'm already out on 7th Jan, but shall we make a big London turnout for 18th March?
