Free swimming is a new trend in the UK where people go swimming in rivers or the sea all year round, the water is cold all year round any way.

I think you got my meaning wrong anyway, I was referring to the last word on Richards list...Richard...lol. am I the only chordian with a sense of humour?

Oh Richard my friend
As your guitar strings you bend
May your talent never end
I don't mean to offend
So don't take offense, take a gate

Yes I have hundreds of song up my sleeve, in books and on cds, not to mention cassets, if I only had a working player!     

A lesson in verse Pedr.  Nicely written. Lesson learned.     

I agree, they have display great musical talent with a unique comedy style     

You captured the mood of the song perfectly Brian. Nice one.     

Hi Jim. No my parents wouldn't let me, I was only 9 in 1960! The teddyboys were somewhere in the middle of the 1950s and they struck fear in the hearts of normal folk. By the time I joined a working band winklepickers and Beatle boots had fallen by the wayside well at least the ones with Cuban heels! I was over 6 feet so I didn't need them. By the time I got a job and was buying my own clothes we were in the middle of the summer of love so it was kaftans and sandals, 1966, I hated it when punk came into fashion.
Thanks for the pics by the way they all add to my collection.     

Rock is sold in most sea side resorts in the UK all with their own town name inside. Must be honest I had no idea how rock was made. As a kid I was often given a stick of rock when friends and relatives came home from holidays and I must admit I was not keen. After a while they get very sticky and end up in the bin (trash can) Llanelli, my home town is known for cockles and when in season you can see the cocklers in their Land Rover Defenders out in the bay during low tide scraping and picking the cockles from their beds, must be quite annoying being woken like that lol.

I'll come back when I've had a go at your song     

Jim, most of the stories refer to his imbibing copious amounts of alcohol and getting rather pernickety and aggressive.  I'd rather not besmirch his memory by relaying gossip. Sorry. Suffice to say he was a great talent that was taken all too soon.     

I really enjoyed that. I must say I'm not over enamoured by disco even though I had to play bass on some of their songs (BeeGees) when I played in a band, mmmmm.
Great minds Pedr, I still call him John Revolta sometimes.
I am a full time wind-up merchant, I can twist most statements to be a bit rude but I have to be careful what I say and to who, not everyone has my sense of humour.

FYI, The band wasn't called "mmmmm"     

I think I'm a bit late but as I've never heard this song before and insurance companies in our respective countries are unlikely to be the same I wouldn't have had a scoobies anyway. Note; scoobie do = haven't a clue. Thanks for trying to get more members to get involved, if you think of anything else please do, something more international maybe?     

Dams were also created in Wales to serve English cities like Birmingham (not Alabama) regardless of the fact that villages had to be evacuated and the populace rehoused, as in the film How green was my valley.
I think the video and song refers to yin/yang the good created in a bad way, no good deed goes unpunished even though it's the victims that get punished not the fat cats that get fatter.
As for your first question, I actually thought of a ferry but decided to go for a cruise ship.
To be honest I know very little about New Zealand apart from Brian, Pete and Jan live there, oh and it's summer time!
