It was also this day in 1971 that Satchmo died. http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=TbHAvBfmvFM&feature=related

and....6th July in 1189 Henry ll King of England (he of the "who will rid me of this turbulent priest" fame) died at Chinon and was buried at Fontevraud Abbey near Chinon.  I do believe he said that famous phrase in French.  He was born in Le Mans you know, just off the Mulsanne Straight although he was not a fan of motor racing as far as history records.[:(]

Weedon ......wicked sense of humour [:D]

Poor Reg ....sing along to this [;-)]

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Time Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
And we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you

Oh it's what you do to me!
Oh it's what you do to me!
Oh it's what you do to me!
Oh it's what you do to me!
What you do to me.

Musics fine but didn't know what to make of the video.  Someone left their shopping trolley in the middle of the motorway...was that France I wonder?  Bit of bad parking on the top floor of the multi-storey as well. And Bruce canoodling with his daughter.  I don't know what to make of this world sometimes.

"Ok...nobody about yet," he says peering over the parapet, "I do like these singers, I think that it's like when my kids used to take the michael when I played Abba years ago and now they like them more than me."   SO take that!

I loved that song Weedon ! beautiful.

Listen to this, I don't know if you liked the old Genesis, but that is a lovely story..  and Phil Collin's looks are hilarious now , in the 21st century................. [:D]

Even though there was a time when I would wear hippy clothes myself !! [:-))]

I showed the video to my son, he could not believe the guy with the scarf down to the floor was Phil Collins !!!!!

[:D]

A trick of the tail
