Give us a nudge will ya'

Mugsy, as Santa tells how Santa got his elves:
-
Time for some weekend madness....the insanity starts here......
You can see where those Monty Python chaps got their mad ideas..... -
David, tis madness I say! Utter & complete madness!
I've always enjoyed Spike & the Goons! Now I need to employ some elves to help me with all that must be done!
-
A documentary for the BBC on the City of Liverpool back in 1959.......no Beatles but worth a look.....
-
very interesting vids of Liverpool for this anglophile , thanks, David
no Beatles. but I'm sure they were familiar with conditions in Liverpool at that time hope you and yours have a happy and healthy New Year!
-
mustangsally10 ...and a Happy New Year to you and yours too number ten......
I am glad you enjoyed that one...it was up on the BBC iplayer recently and I missed it so was pleased to find it. The boys would like the images if they saw them. I will atempt to flood this old dumpster of a site with my witticisms and cutting edge debate soon if my sight holds up. Since the op it hasn't been good.....bloody marvellous news for an artist/art historian....

TTFN David....

David - you'rw a peach! Thanks for sharing! I nudge to re-organize the guest room
-
GYPSYGIRL Ay up GG pet...
'twas just off to bed and there you are....not in my bed (what would our partners say...
) but here posting on The Nudge...
I am trying my artistic bent again at the moment to find some serenity and get in touch with the inner me....which after crimbo is mainly full of chocolate. It would have been full of trifle but the wife decided to put her gargantuan trifle in the fridge on crimbo morn and smashed it against the inside of the fridge dumping broken glass deep into the cream on top....
: ....silly old numpty....
Will try and post tomorrow..... Take care.
-
Ah David, if you & I had headed for bed together, we'd be like a silly pair of toddlers & jump up & down on the bed like a trampoline & giggling like mad!
I have temporarily sworn off chocolate.
Must be on account of the humoungous tin of Walkers Shortbread that my sweet but diet saboteur husband presented me with on Crimble. Walkers Shortbread - one of my fave vices.
Now I forget what it is I need to be nudge for!
-
I'm back in bed....anyone care to join me......it's a rock 'n roll PJ party.....
This song's got a lot to answer for..........and I'm wearing me beetle-crushers....that's beetle not Beatle.......
......don't know the words?......ask Pauly......
-
I needed more than a nudge to get up when the alarm clock went off this morning. I'm looking forward to the next 2 days in Feb, when our kid has off for Presidents' Day weekend!
-
A couple more TV shows for you to tap into.....here's the first episodes to start you off..... Monarch Of The Glen......Highlands of Jockland etc
Ballykissangel.......The Emerlad Isle.......with the gorgeous Dervla.... And now for something totally different..... Connections a truly fascinating series from the 70's with the great broadcaster James Burke......shows of this quality are sadly few and far between now. -
I need a nudge to make dinner tonite. And without further ado: Man: 'Evening, squire! Squire: (stiffly) Good evening. Man: Is, uh,...Is your wife a goer, eh? Know whatahmean, know whatahmean, nudge nudge, know whatahmean, say no more? Squire: I, uh, I beg your pardon? Man: Your, uh, your wife, does she go, eh, does she go, eh? Squire: (flustered) Well, she sometimes 'goes', yes. Man: Aaaaaaaah bet she does, I bet she does, say no more, say no more, know whatahmean, nudge nudge? Squire: (confused) I'm afraid I don't quite follow you. Man: Follow me. Follow me. That's good, that's good! A nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat! Squire: Are you, uh,...are you selling something? Man: SELLING! Very good, very good! Ay? Ay? Ay? (pause) Oooh! Ya wicked Ay! Wicked Ay! Oooh hooh! Say No MORE! Squire: Well, I, uh....

Love these pieces of music from one of my favourite films of all time......
The great Larry Adler playing harmonica and a wonderful movie score for 'Genevieve'. -
I need to nudge myself into position by the front door & wait for the school bus. Early dismissal due to incoming blizzard.

This is an article from todays UK press about the Peter Pan gene scientists have found that makes you look younger than your years. Paul and Mick Jagger are the examples given. Some of the comments beneath make me Grrrrrrr
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1249298/Looking-young-age-Thank-Peter-Pan-gene.html I posted a reply but it's not up as I type. The snide comments are indicative of this slip sliding country. We are becoming a nation of lazy, apathetic, whinging twonks, governed at all levels by fools. A once great and proud country brought up on a diet of mediocrity that they mistake for talent and genius whilst true icons and innovators from all of areas of life are ignored, underfunded or ridiculed. A nation falling dramatically in standards and nobody gives a damn. Lord, even when we got mugged recently by the financial sector and gave them our money and watch now as they award themselves large bonuses for their mis-management of the banking system there has been no marches, no riots....
.... just complete disinterest, just roll over, total acceptance and on the SHEEP plod.
It's almost time to put up the for sale sign. You'll also see on this site today the report about this desperate, incompetent and almost bankrupt govenment putting up a piece of our heritage up for sale to raise some readies. French businesses are at the front of the queue to buy the port at Dover and the White Cliffs....
A national landmark, Vera Lynn and RAF spitfires in dogfights with the luftwaffe, 'bluebirds over...' etc.......truly, if that happens we should just close the whole place down.

I need a nudge to get some work done today. In fact, if it wasn't for the non-stop blizzard today, I think I would act a little bonkers & go outside & start making a Calvin & Hobbes style snowman! Check it out, if you dare!

RIP Lionel......thanks for the fun over the years. You'll always be one of the best in showbusiness.
-
Talking of Chitty Chitty.....EON have acquired the rights to the whole kaboodle and are planning a remake. Now who's gonna be the lead? I say Jim Carrey surely and Johnny Depp as the child catcher....

SHEER CLASS NOW! ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES.....AND A PERSONAL FAVOURITE.......I've been wanting to post this for a while. 'GENEVIEVE'......THE MUSIC IS SUBLIME......AND LARRY ADLER'S HARMONICA......LORDY!......
....BRILLIANT!So pull up a fairy cake and a cup of English Tea and settle down to a little bit of Ye Olde England, well early 1950's.....just love the old streets/shops and chugging transport. Things had so much character then unlike now.
