I'm on my 20-year RAWK anniversary in early September and I already have some plans for it.

Im hoping to buy a pair of her iconic specs at auction and wear them on the KOP.

No landmark.  Just keeping her legacy alive.

Fuckin hell.  Zoom by Fat Larrys band was on the radio last night and I got to thinking about the legend that is Grifter.   He often mentioned this track during his rants and it was his fav pickup song at the end of the night in some seedy dive.

:lmao


Not saying I,d marry her,but If I was leathered in a club at 1.55 in the morning and Zoom by Fat Larrys Band came on,Diedre would get it  :lickin

I've still got loads of Grifter posts on PDF - just been having a read again.  Absolutely brutal he was.

Search for "zoom" or "Fat larry" on the RAWK search thing

got half a dozen hits from Grifter alone

Some of it really is not PC these days.   Grifter just couldn't survive here anymore.   But bloody funny all the same though.

Didn’t he mention Fat Larry band on some kind of list/itinerary of a night out? I remember that one.

Yeah. I only saw him deviate from Fat Larry once in his 2am nightclub posts.

Sure it was ‘Move Closer’ by Phyllis Nelson

10,000 posts - Ode to Deirdre

In Weatherfield town, there's a lady renowned,
With a spirit so fiery, she wears the soap crown,
Her name was Deirdre Barlow, a force to be seen,
With a humour so sharp, the soap opera queen!

In the Rovers Return, where the locals all gather,
Deirdre's could, turn men to a soapy lather
With her glasses perched low, fag in gob,
She'll break you're heart, make you sob!

In love and in life, she was quite the ride,
From Ken to Mike, she was stretched quite wide,
With her husky laugh and her sexy eyes,
She's a soap icon, no one denies!

She's been through it all, the trials and woes,
Yet she never lets life's drama impose,
Even in times of sorrow and strife,
She brought joy to our TV screens and our life,

So here's to Deirdre, soap opera star,
Who stole our hearts from across the bar!
With each passing episode, we continued to smile,
For you've made us happy,  all the while!


Heres to RAWK and the next 10,000 pearls of wisdom

I tried to post this yesterday but it seems there were connection issues somewhere along the line.

Anyway, time to celebrate my 20th RAWK anniversary in the most appropriate of threads.
