The forum in which all human experience resides. Especially for fans of the now-deceased original Hall of the Wendigo. Still Number One with the core demographic.

It is over.
That was a string of mostly ordinary songs, indifferently sung.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

It was all rather bland for the most part other than the last two tracks which hinted at something a bit more interesting. It was like a stripped-down Transvision Vamp album (of which I own two/both) having had all the fun taken away.
2/5

Terry was on a covering for a local tin-pot DJ and he was a right bully to the producer/co-presenter because she was a southerner.
Readers, she was from Cornwall. (which is technically dawn Sarf, but it's not really 'southern' is it?)

In all honesty there were too many things going on in that post top start with.
It was almost heroic - Scissor Sisters/Sister Wendy/Wendy James...
Ultimately it was a bit of a shame you stopped there.

I was going more for the s*xual position of Sister Scissor*, than a more subtle and obscure Sister Sledge/Nun joke.
And it should have been 'He'd' not 'He's'
* More of Lesbinanious sort of thing, I thought that made it funnier.
