Are You Being Served? I've been up all night, unable to sleep thinking about the prospect of an early retirement and a healthy pension, enjoying myself on my yacht in the sun; let's face it every dog has his day and I've always loved Turkey. These are just some random songs I like in no particular order, if I may have your attention. They mean an awful lot to me, I hope they mean something to you, the sound quality isn't great but when you watch the video too you should understand, I'm happy to let others Judge. Judas Priest - Breaking The Law (youtube.com) I've always admired the Dirty Harry franchise, all the other cops were scared of him, he could get into trouble working the Subway on the late shift but he never worried about the pension and the Chief Inspector always let him carry the can, candidly. George Thorogood & The Destroyers - Bad To The Bone (Dirty Harry Tribute) (youtube.com) I love this song, this is the original although it's been widely...
The Usual Suspects Divine Ordinance: everything from this point on is intended to incite hatred, create division, foment unrest, just say yes, smack my bitch up, cause a lolocaust, offend, encourage violence, target the vulnerable, put your head in a gas oven and put your rights over your responsibilities. I've thought of an idea for a blockbuster movie script. It's a sort of Pale Rider story about a gunfighter who returns from the dead to wreak vengeance on those who wronged him. I want it told in a kind of Usual Suspects style, leaving the viewer to work out who the real Crook is. There'll be an eclectic range of characters picked randomly from people I've come across in real life. There'll be the average businessman, Damphouse, who's machinations stretch to sitting side saddle on a cheap iron horse, and his sidekick Walliams. Halfchat, the mysterious fortune teller who types in tongs due to a visual impairment. Pool Hand Fluke, who knows that a stitch in ti...
China In Your Hand T'Pau Images Copyright The British Antique Dealers' Association I haven't written about my finds at boot sales for a while, and unfortunately I've been sectioned under the Mental Health Act again so haven't had as much chance to go as I'd like, weather permitting. I actually tried a new boot sale the last time I went, this time the Lazybones Barleylands winter bootsale and a very productive morning it was too. Amongst an assorted bag of mixed china I bought for £4 I bought a Davenport plate, an example of their works can be seen in the image above. It appears to be hand decorated with a bird and I paid no more than £1 for it. From the same stall I also bought a surrealist oil painting on board by a listed artist whose name escapes me at the moment for no more than £1 again. The painting alone may be worth as much as £100 at auction. The plate I guess is worth maybe another £50. I cannot find an example of a plate similar to the one I bought...
