    The origin of sayings

    So, on holiday I learned where "cocked up" came from. It is to do with Bows and Arrows, the three areas of feathers on the arrows are taken from Hens and Cocks. Unless you put the arrow the right way around (ie with Hens feathers on the left and right and the Cocks feathers on the top) then...

    Ageing

    Some discussions elsewhere on these boards made me ponder this subject recently. I know we are a mixed bunch age-wise but I wonder how you are feeling as you get older. Is life getting any easier (could it ever?), are you more relaxed or with the extra responsilbity that growing older...

    Private Messaging

    Is it just me or do PM's sometimes go missing? I had a PM last night that I KNOW I did not delete yet this morning it had vanished! Also, this morning I replied to one that came in today, yet it's nowhere to be seen in my sent items - even though I had a reply from it! Anyone else having...

    Don't I Know You From Somewhere?

    OK, we all had to go through a re-registration process when these new, wonderful forums started in May. Did you take that oppertunity to give yourself a re-birth with a fresh username? Or perhaps you couldn't have the one you wanted (isn't that always the case in life in general?). Well...

    Echobelly

    Remember them? I dug their debut album out yesterday and listened to it on the way to work this morning. Some good tunes however it is a little cringeable how much Sonya (I think?) tries to sound like Moz. There's one song that has a complete rip-off of "Billy Budd"'s roaring guitars but...

    Why Do You Come Here?

    Well then...why? What makes you decide to login here? Is it the news? Are you looking for friends? Are you looking for a real close friend if you know what I mean? (;) ) Are you looking for self-validation? Do you want it confirmed that you are not alone in this world? Or are you...

    The Official Goodnight Thread

    OK, just about to go to bed, thought it only decent of me to say goodnight, just going upstairs without passing on my regards would be too rude. Feel free to make this your place to sign off for the night (it might help others work out why you're not online for example?)....... Anyway...

    How Has Morrissey Influenced Your Life?

    For me, he heightened my appreciation of lyrics more than anything else but I understand that some may have been more significantly than I. Just wondered, that's all.

    The Beautiful South anyone?

    I have, almost by accident, nearly as many TBS cd's as I do Moz without ever really thinking about it. I wondered, with the vivid northerness of their collective personna and the top quality lyrics of Paul Heaton, with his bone dry humour, do many Moz fans find themselves enjoying TBS...

    Have You Over-Exposed Yourself To Morrissey?

    I went to the Liverpool gig and really enjoyed myself but can't help thinking that I'm changing my feelings on him. I have, for example, tickets for London, Sunday 21st, and I'm having a really hard time stopping myself from selling them. I watched Live In Dallas and also Introducing...

    Liverpool Friday 12th

    I'm looking forward to going to this and I just wondered who else from this board is also going to be there? It would just make me smile a little if as I walk amongst people at the gig that there was a chance they visited this site :) Also, after the curious event that was Gateshead (my only...

    Celebrity Spotting & More - Gateshead

    Just got back home from a heavy (drinking) weekend in Newcastle/Gateshead. Had a great time but disapointed like others were about the lack of encore - yes some of the crowd were a bit tame and yes the sound system packed in for about 90 seconds but I still don't understand why he was so quiet...
