Astral Weeks At 50 - @bbcradioulster http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0001hpc
Some fucking album.
A stunner
15 years ago today, Jonny Wilkinson kicked THAT drop-goal and England were world champions

Jonny was a hot piece of ass all told
Dawson’s delayed pass out of the scrum was sublime mate.
The pre kick routine was him imagining a pool of water in his hands and waiting for it to settle.
@KinvarasPassion would do something similar most morinings while meditating
And yet you have crazy folk claiming that it’s not his best album.
I was involved in this terrible day
How so mate?
I have a slight preference for Moondance
And the best of Van Morrison
30 years ago today, Pan Am flight 103 blew up over Lockerbie
On this day 10 years ago, one of the greatest frontmen in all of Rock and Roll, Lux Interior of the Cramps, passed away.
1992 - An off-duty RUC officer in Belfast kills three people in a Sinn Féin office before commiting suicide
“All as a result of their own actions”, as I believe Regina Doherty once said.
This happened the same day.
“It brought the IRA to their senses”, though, or something, to paraphrase @anon7035031.
Not only did Doherty say that during the last general election campaign, she then played the “I’m being bullied and threatened by people online because I’m a woman” card when she was rightly called out in the aftermath. A despicable cunt.
I never knew it happened the same day as Sean Graham’s bookies.
I didn’t know either - I did know the bookies massacre took place on February 5th, 1992, however, which was the same day as a much better type of shoot out - as Southampton beat Manchester United in a penalty competition in the FA Cup Fourth Round at Old Trafford.
