"I love them. National Shite Day will always coax a smile from me."
At my friends funeral, they played it as we were all leaving the chapel. People started smiling and it was just so typical of him to have that, it reminded us to celebrate him and not just mourn and be sad. |

Should have been "Tending the wrong grave for 23 years" |

Still got an album somewhere, Time Flies by, when you’re the driver of a train, Fucking hell it’s Fred Tutmus, and the classic lyrics, Mary had a little lamb, the doctors were astounded, everywhere Mary went gynaecologists surrounded lol. Certainly made me chuckle when I got it. |

'Reflections in a Flat' is a work of lyrical genius.
"Oh darling sugar honey
When it was nice and sunny
And when I had some money
We would go and see Echo And The Bunny
…men
Since I was eight I’ve loved you
Through garden gates I’ve shoved you
Then there’s the time I slashed you
And you had to go to hospital
Now you are gone forever
Shot by your Uncle Trevor
My story seems so tragic
Ali Bongo’s good at contortionism
Oh he’s much better than David Nixon ever was
Woh oh oh oo-ooh
Slowly I picked my life up
Now I go and pick the wife up
She works at Marks & Spencer’s
La la la Lech Walesas
When Cupid threw her last dart
You, girl, were still in my heart
I love you more than ever
Even though I married Trevor"

I do love that, a sad occasion but a lovely reminder of him. |

“Fun nonsense”?!
I would argue that Nigel is one of the great chroniclers of life on this ridiculous island.
All together now (to the tune of “He’s got the whole world in his hands”)…..
We made lots of good friends on Henman Hill
We made lots of good friends on Henman Hill
We made lots of good friends on Henman Hill….
…Now we all go to boxercise

Thank you. The pause between “bunny” and “men” is one of THE great moments in all recorded music |

Me girlfriend looks like Peggy Mount,
What am I supposed to do?
I’m up the creek, never mind the paddle, boy,
I haven’t even got a canoe.
Sold my soul to arctic roll,
I go to hell on a red skidoo
I did the Shake n vac
It broke me f*****g back
And me library books are nine months overdue
Knock, knock, who’s there?
The patron saint of Llandudno,
The patron saint of Llandudno, who
Tony Bastable
You scratch my back, and I all scratch yours
And I’ll be in heaven before you,
I love you,
( Because you,
Look like Jim Reeves )

If I had agoraphobia
And if I had claustrophobia
Trapped inside my porch
Things would be bleak
Especially midweek
Your weird dreams
Don’t impress in any way
In dreams
Weird things are mundane and everyday
Strange to me would be
Buying a loaf
And coming straight home
Try and get your arse downtown next week
I’m going to prove once and for all
To the LTA hey-hey-hey
That Tim and Greg are not golden boys
They are in fact automatons
I’ve seen the chips and wires
And the circuit boards
“The reservoirs are colder
And deeper than you think”
Well stop, wait a minute Mr Spokesman
You don’t know what I think
Is your lake about
(hmm now let’s see)
A hundred miles deep
And ninety below?
And is it home to sharks?
It’s gonna end up
With the storming of a brothel in Palermo
Sniffer dogs in fluorescent bibs
I’ve seen the chips and wires
I’ve seen the circuit boards
I’ve seen the chips and wires
I’ve seen the circuit boards
This is me pleading for some civic pride
Using or losing the park and ride
Twin town said we just weren’t cool
So now we got a suicide pact with Goole
I’ve seen the chips and wires
I’ve seen the circuit boards
I’ve seen the chips and wires
I’ve seen the circuit boards |

That's from the album "Back in the DHSS", released in 1986 if memory serves and championed by the late, great John Peel. |

I've heard of them but I don't think I've ever heard any of their stuff. So I've looked them up on Spotify and am having a good laugh.
The album titles Achtung Bono and Trouble Over Bridgewater are just brilliant! |

The writing by NB is legendary.
Rumours were abound that Monty Don named his 2 labradors Neil and Nigel as a tribute to HMHB.
Backed up by the first line of "Every time a bell rings (I hate you some more)" being...
"Ground Control to Monty Don".... |

Got HMHB lyrics on the brain today. Current fave:
“My Uncle Charlie is a cynical man
His wife’s a touch sceptical too
They’ve got a sticker on the back
of their car that says
We’ve seen the prices at the zoo”
Nigel is brilliant . |

Brilliant and still one of my favourite bands. You can’t go wrong with song titles like Who’s afraid of Virginia Wade or lyrics like…
They’ve been cooking on Blue Peter
Now sampling the dishes
I don’t normally like tomatoes John
But this is delicious! |
