Bill & Charlie's Bar

[bill-xxx]

Hello to all our old friends and newcomers alike. Welcome to Bill & Charlie's Bar - the place to meet other posters and to sit and chat while you sample your favourite tipple. Plenty to drink, lots of joking but alas no smoking.

We are open all hours (hic) and run a respectable Bar. (Although I argued with Charlie until I was blue in the face over that one!) No swearing, spitting or drun..drunk...drunken beeeehaviour (hic). We have a couple of bouncers to hand ~ she comes in on Friday nights.

Teetotallers are welcome and will be treated as normal. I jest ~ soft drinks are available at the bar along with light snacks. And finally, please use the emergency exit when Bill rambles on about the good ol' days and put plugs in your ears when Charlie 'sings'.

Come on in...:-D

He was a very popular pub singer in the 80s. He died young.

Everyone in the pub would sing the lyrics when his music was played. I still have a record of his.

Brings back nice memories.

Everyone knew his songs. I remember singing this on the top of my voice many times. https://youtu.be/f9pXewD276M

The Original by Lesley Gore

, made Number 2 in US charts, only stopped making Top spot by the Fab Fours  'I want to hold Your Hand'

and this is probably the best version of it ever, live on US TV in 64.

The single was over produced & softened, but this is Her giving it laldy

( a Scottish word meaning 'to sing or do proudly; with great gusto')

Considering what life was like for females when it was released in 1963, this is a stunning Political statement, about How Women should be treated.

Did you get Your computer sorted out, Harry ?

Up to now I have only installed  Bluhell firewall.

I do have the impression that it is faster now, although it still needs a bit of time to "warm up" when I turn it on.

I will do the other stuff as well, but I like to do it a bit at the time, so I can see what is actually working in case it happens again.

That way I might just need to do one thing to sort it.

That is my logic anyway.

Unfortunately, whilst tending his herbaceous borders, he was savagely attacked by a vicious Tsetse Fly, and is currently sleeping off the effects. Logs is on his way over to his place this very moment to point his magic bone at him, and chant a few magic spells. When he discovers the cost of this treatment, he'll once again fall into a deep and hypnotic catatonic state.

Help yourself to anything worth taking. Meanwhile I have a date with a dealer. I have a Queen Victoria  bar mascot to offload.

Toodle-pip.

He's probably escaped to Face ache again.

It's time to demolish this place again.

No, Harriet. Well he may have done, but I had an email from him saying that he has had the legs knocked from under him by some bug. He said he would be back shortly to count his money.

What a shock he's in for.
