Someone who’s reading this just sent a screenshot of this to another guy in the pub who I’m with and asked if I’m with him. I am. And so is his picture. @One For The Road VT inception. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 13, 2021 Moderator Share Posted June 13, 2021 We've had a Colared Dove nexting in behind one of our security lights for about a month. I was convinced there were eggs there as the bird was pretty much resident for a month or more It flew off for a bit today, quick check, no eggs or babies... evicted! Also I broke the record for the Swedish half-marathon in Warrington today. (Hint: Go to IKEA an hour before England Kick Off and its empty) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was EXACTLY what I thought when I saw that.

Pure pop, probably Kylie ICGYOMH, but ghost town is a nailed on classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and a few mates "sung" this at Karaoke in Lake Balaton one time ..its safe to say nobody in the club had really heard this song before based on the baffled looks we received we won the crowd over by performing the next song completely naked , but that's another story suffice to say , whever I hear Ghost town i kinda chuckle to myself at the night out and how bad our rendition was ..then get embarrassed when i remember what followed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the omission of not, but in the same way people 'could care less' about something, either way it can be argued whether he thinks or doesn't think it's the best #1.

Stevo985 Posted June 15, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 15, 2021 I never liked Ghost Town. I'm not a music snob, hopefully my record of listening to any old shite shows through on VT I just don't like that song. It's absolutely nowhere near the best Number 1 ever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I didn’t recognise Ghost Town from the title, just had a listen and yes I remember it now. Rubbish though, I’m surprised it got to number 1. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
