Things I meant to write tonight till I got put off by processing pictures and things and will hopefully write about tomorrow.
- The Blockbusters theme tune.
- Train tickets and other religious things.
- Something else that I have forgotten temporarily.
- Ladybirds, and how little I know about them.
Some, if not all. Probably some.
Or a couple.
Or, you know, maybe ‘one’, knowing me. If that.
In the meantime, and with apologies, a link to an old Wet Wet Wet video because as part of a conversation today, I was trying to describe the fact that Marty Pellow burps after the first two lines. And he does!
Listen for yourself!
30 seconds in! He burps!
Ah, I could watch it over and over again.
In fact I have.
That was what I was mainly led off by.
I admit it.
All the other stuff was just to cover up my infantile glee at the Wet Man Burping.
Urp!



Nooo - he doesn’t look surprised enough or sniggery enough to have burped. I reckon it’s a gruff sort of groan for sexual reasons…
How young he looks! *sigh*

I think he burped on purpose. He looked so pleased with himself.
Newly hatched ladybirds are buttercup yellow, with no spots. At least, they are if they hatch in my greenhouse.

Is that Blockbusters with Bob Holness? I can’t remember how that theme tune goes. Is it good?

Please could you tell us about train tickets and other religious things? It sounds very poetic.

I did an MSc in ladybirds! I know lots about them!

Also in music: Van Morrison belches on Jackie Wilson Said (at 2′06″), John Lennon yells “Fuckinell” in Hey Jude (at 2′58″) and Jimi Hendrix has a cold all the way through Foxy Lady (best heard on the stereo mix).

[...] is indeed right. Marti gives out a lovely belch after the first line of Angel [...]
