    In the rooftop jacuzzi we met a septic chap who'd won an on line poker tournament and was there with his 'girlfriend' to take part in another tournament... me thinks on comparing the two, that his winnings had paid for the lithe blonde vixen whose jacuzzi water I was bathing in....and camel toe I was letching over...
    Glad to hear it.

    Went to see a mate who got the gig as 2nd/Asst Principal Clarinettist at the Sydney OH a few years ago and ended up totally fucked in the Fortune of War the next morning.

    I was told by a Posh* aussie copper the next morning that she could have done me for vagrancy and I was fucking hugely disappointed when she let me go.

    Is there anybody on this site who can answer for the crime that is Darwin, Northern territory, Oz?

    *Posh Aussie Definition.

    No.

    Worse.

    My pint not only fucked about with but stolen in true Aussie/Pom/ RSL/Darwin /NT/ knuckle dragging fashion.

    My first question from the Darwin RSL bloke was "I suppose you are a fucking Sgt/Major?' to which answered that I'd actually been a fuck all in the Brit Gunners. Disappointed? You fucking bet.

    Cunts nicked my pint whilst I went for a piss.

    Next time I piss on the floor inebriates.

    The Marriage of Figaro,
    Symphony no40,
    Vivaldi, The four seasons, all of it especially by Kennedy.

    Now I ask you, the BEST piece of music ever? Not what you fancy you like, not ever what you like now. The best you have ever known.

    I could say silly things that I like a lot such as:
    Bizet - Les pecheurs de perles
    Rage Against the Machine - Pistol Grip Pump
    Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
    Knees Up Mother Brown (as a pub song)
    Over The Hills and Far Away
    Bling 182 - The Party Song
    Borodin's - No.2, 3rd Movement
    Fleetwood Mac - Albatross

    Still, what wins hands down for now and forever more is:
    Elgar - Nimrod from Enigma Varitions
    We have similar taste in music. I particularly like O'er The Hills and Far Away, as it suits my lifestyle. Elgar, yes indeed. Rolling stones! I didn't realise until many years after they appeared on the scene, just how versatile the Stones are. Liszt, Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 (made more famous by the Stella Artois ice skating priests).

    But my all time favourite is the Bruch violin concerto No1 in G minor op 26

    Intermezzo from Cavallaria Rusticana used in many films most famously Raging Bull. Having a problem uploading today.

    To be honest, I never understood why Kennedy became so popular. Imho, he scrapes his way through the Four Seasons without any feeling, scratching at his fiddle like a gyppo busking on the tube. If he had a Stradivarius, he'd pin a tin cup to the end of it. And he lives in a tractor tyre on the end of a rope.

    Forgotten all about her. Wonderful voice.

    And a pad brat: Tanita Tikaram - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, presumably born in BMH Münster.
