Hot in the city - Billy Idol

Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight - Louis Armstrong

spitting image of a swashbuckling pirate, complete with eye-patch and garrulous parrot. 'Arrgh ...Ahoy there, Johnny me hearty! What brings you here, you scurvy dog?' he roared, giving me a powerful thump on the back. 'Daxxy, me old mate!' I gasped, partially winded. I attempted to return a good back-slap, which left me with a smarting hand. 'Gotta a coupla things here that might interest you.' 'Come in, come in! Join me in a tot'a'rum.' 'Where's me nuts? Where's me nuts?' demanded Capt. Morgan, the parrot. 'BELAY YER YAP!' bellowed Dax. 'Make me, Fathead! Rark rark.' Dax threw a shoe at him, but ...

As Time Goes By ~ Dooley Wilson

Just finished a quick read (an afternoon), A Sunday in Ville-d'Avray by Dominique Barberis. Picked up in a bookshop on a whim a few days ago. A reasonably decent read - beautifully written - but didn't really live up to the blurb, quoted reviews on back cover or initial browse. Wryly funny? Really? 3 stars.

Red Red Wine - UB40

the little matter of my pilfered books. Del Grundy wouldn't be much help with this little lot but I did know a fence by the name of Dodgy Dax who'd be sure to give a nod and a wink to anything shady. 'Gotta see a man about a dog, Rosie,' I called and hot footed it out of there. I could hear her shouting something but time enough to face the music later. If I returned with my pockets full of dosh, all would be forgiven. But if not, things could get ...

Bottle of Wine ~ Tom Paxton

The Days of Wine and Roses - Henry Mancini

get out if this house! Now...' I scarpered, trying my utmost to garner the makings of a plausible cover story. Well, I mused, I can pretend I was just passing and saw the door open,two floozies soaping daddy in the 🛁 bath tub, a smell of bacon plus cabbage juice...hmm..yep that's my story. I now must tend to

These Days - Bon Jovi

A lot of content. I'm still trying to deal with Johnny Quest.

I gave my best friend a copy of 'Nibbles and me' by Elizabeth Taylor for the very good teacher to his students Ispn: 0689853343

I'm shopping for a hard cover of Kaytek. My local library found a copy for me to borrow and read. I'd like a hard cover edition of it to own however.
