Guilty Pleasures!



We all have our own take on music - most of us, infact, pretty much all of us have different tastes. Each person as eclectic as the next to be honest, I say this with confidence because after a recent discussion with someone known for their bizarre taste in music, I learnt that they had a back catalogue of Corrs albums....a guilty little pleasure.

Musical guilty pleasures are much like normal guilty pleasures, you know its not the done thing, you know it could be fattening, gross, obscene or just plain illegal, but we all have them

I'm going to have to say mine is Phil Collins - (pictured above in his hobo years) - Can anyone tell me why he's so unpopular and why I have to hide my "best of" album constantly? when I know in a few years I'm going to have to buy a new one because the disc is practically rice paper thin from over playing?

I won't go too deep into my love for the music of this bald cocker-ney crooner - because if i "out" myself too much I'll lose all credibility - but please join me in my quest for honesty - what's YOUR guilty pleasure with music?

PS: I'm off on holidays for a week. - slán!

Carvery!


Carvery.

It's the bane of my life.

You go into a pub for a something to eat and this is what you have to endure...

1: Getting into a queue with those trays - you know the ones? I HATE them! slippy bastards.

2: Queuing like it's ration russia with the rest of the punters lining up for yer "grub"

3: Getting greeted by the "chef" who you know was in the Irish army. (not necessarily a bad thing)

4: Having him put whatever food is in the steel trays onto your tray and ushering you away

now...my point is this....you could be ordering a fucking salad and you'll STILL feel like you've swallowed a duck down pillow afterwards - what is it with Carvery?

A Chicken Salad smothered in gravy or something!

Jesus!
