    I was half-watching School For Seduction last night and in it a teenager was having a row with her mother. She was ignoring the mother and picked up a CD and staring at the cover. When her mother grabbed it off her it was Morrissey, Kill Uncle I think. No dialogue surrounding it though.

    I was reading a novel 'The Spa Decameron' by Fay Weldon recently - one of the characters has a boyfriend called Morrissey - some of the dialogue is "No, my boyfriend's Morrissey" - "Morrissey the pop singer? Hard to believe but anythings possible..." - "No just his mother was a Morrissey fan" - "She was engaged to Morrissey. They'd taken the chastity pledge for purity..."

    It was quite unexpected & gave me cause to chuckle

    My 14 year old daughter has just had a row with her younger brother, and came out with "...because you're evil...and you lie!..."



    Then she told me off! "Stop doing what Grandma does - making up songs about everything that happens!"

    I went to visit my Aunt earlier today, who now lives in a Care Home due to her health. I was sat in the lounge with the other residents, some with dementia. One old lady sits up and says "Morrissey" then sinks back in her chair. He's everywhere!

    Browsing through Amazon, I just discovered this book called 'How Long is Now?' by Timothy Freke, a writer who I've had some experience with in the past: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1...pf_rd_i=266239

    I never know what really counts as worthy to post to this thread.
    But here goes:

    the goddess Hikki has been doing a little mini tour of the USA
    and right before she came on they were playing the Smiths, twice!
    Now I hear that The Smiths were also heard before she took the stage in Honolulu, Seattle & L.A.
    So I just wrote my first fan letter ever to her, I said:

    I noticed that right before you took the stage at the Fillmore, that they were playing a second Smiths song. So well, I am telling everyone I know that you really like the Smiths. I hope that is OK, all my friends are really big Smiths fans. Well, I have never written one of these before so I feel weird now. Anyways, the show was one of the most awesome I have ever been to, thank for coming to sing here in San Francisco.

    I'll let you all know if she responds.

    Didn't Richard call Morrissey a pretentious prat or something similar? The "married his own mother" line is still one of my favourites.

    That said, Richard is also one of my favourites:

    This is a long shot...but

    in the first episode of shameless tonight, millie smalls my boy lollypop was used, filming would have been taking place at the time of mozs 50th birthday which many of the shameless cast attended, could this have been a nod to morrisseys use if the song as one of his gig videos???
