Poor Jimmy Godden

"Caught By The Fuzz" for the "Who were Supergrass, Grandad?" generation

Lethal Bizzle's "Police On My Back" is a bit flippin' good isn't it? Who says I don't like new music, because I've listened to new music before and it's all rubbish? Oh, that'd be me.Also this week, I am listening to Suede rarities and bootlegs and t...

RE: Fareham police seek man with no face

That's pretty bad... WHAT is the point of the cameras then? Surely even if they catch the guy they can't use that as evidence? It could be anyone.

RE: Fareham police seek man with no face

RE: Glastonbury ticket touts FOILED!

I think their argument would be "to cover the inevitable piracy" but I'm with you - the less the charge for tracks the less people would bother to pirate them. If they can get down to somewhere between 15-30p per track they'd make a mint. Why would...

Ripper indeed

Been plotting some writings regarding the Ipswich prostitute murders, getting a bit annoyed at the press calling this guy "the ripper". He's not ripped so much as a sheet of toilet paper as far as we know, he's been suffocating in Suffolk, can no-one...
