Bang, Bang

It's that time of year again, dear reader - and some traditions here at Dolores Delargo Towers will never change...

"I think I'm going to Hell. Oh, dear!!"

Happy Easter.

You were looking at me, I was looking at you


Bunny wins

OK - it's not a working day, but some traditions never fade. As the blue skies beckon in a long Easter weekend (and for me, the start of ten days off), it's time to get that party started in style - with one of the catchiest of 1970s dance classics and some show-off Soul Train dancers to boot!

Thank Disco It's Good Friday!

Across the crowded disco room
Through a maze of dancing people
She sits so quiet and all alone
Wanting to get the disco fever

And then she raised her head
Her eyes caught mine
And that was all that I needed
In her eyes I saw the need for love
The warm, soft feeling
'Cause we made

Eye to eye contact
Eye to eye contact (Oh, oh, oh yeah)
Eye to eye contact
(We made) Eye to eye contact
You and me

Contact!
You were looking at me
I was looking at you
You were looking at me

Across the crowded disco room
Oh, your eyes told me the story
My heart was beating like the drum
As I fought my way over

I never took my eyes away from yours
Not even for a moment
What I saw in your eyes made me realise
(You I wanted) Yeah, yeah, yeah

Eye to eye contact
(We made) Eye to eye contact (Oh, oh, oh yeah)
Eye to eye contact
(We made) Eye to eye contact
You and me

I was looking at you
You were looking at me
I was looking at you
You were looking at me

Contact!
Girl don't you get uptight
Just dance
Everything gonna be alright
Just dance
Take a chance
Oh, and dance

I sure like what you got
You sho nuff looking hot (dance)
I sure like what you got
You sho nuff looking hot (dance)
Yeah, come on and dance

As for me, dear reader, I am winging my way to Tottenham Hale to catch my coach to Essex for a (hopefully) fruitful weekend's plant shopping!

"Normal" service should resume after I return on Monday.

Have a good one!!


PS - THIS!

It's traditional.

Happy Easter.

It's inevitable....

...at this time of year, that we should sustain our tradition here at Dolores Delargo Towers - with a beloved canticle:

Happy Easter.

The age-old traditions are the best



At this time every year since I began this blog, I have always showcased this enduring family favourite - and I see no reason to change that now...


Bang, bang, bang, bang, indeed.

Happy Easter.

This song is a sing along!

"I think I'm going to Hell. Oh, dear!!"

The timeless Tiger Lillies with the magnificent Justin Bond - what more could you want at Easter?

I'm afraid it has to be...

It is a tradition every year...

Happy Easter!

Season's Greetings! - My Kind Of Panto

It's that day! To some, it's Xmas. To others it is Saturnalia. To most people, it's a day off work and an excuse to eat and drink more in 24 hours than you would normally imbibe in a week. However, there are some things that always come to mind at this time of year - such as Pantomime!

Featuring The Tiger Lillies' Martin Jacques and Justin Bond, in my case...

According to the blurb:
The Twisted Tale Of A Christmas Crack-Whore: A reality faerie tale for our times. Poor Sinderella (Justin Bond) is a whore with deep psychological problems caused by resentment towards her wicked stepmother (Martin Jacques), a sadistic whore with introspective complications. So far, Sinderella's problems can only be assuaged by crack. The world awaits the coming of Prince Charming, whomsoever he/she/it may be.
Season's Greetings, dears...

I think I might be going to hell, Oh dear!

It's that time of year, when people's thoughts turn to chocolate, bunnies and baby chicks. Oh, and this, of course...
