RIP JV. Loved when he mimicked other players.

And don't get me started on "Boat Players"

I also slag Dennis Taylor off for insisting on calling Jimmy White, "The World Wind"

I feel bad for slagging him off for continually shouting, "Where's the cue ball going?" now.

RIP John Virgo, his last commentary was only 17 days ago.

I'll second The Alabama Three suggestion.

Exile on Coldharbour Lane has been one of my favourite albums for ages.

The first album I bought of theirs because of Woke up. Saw them the 1st time touring the Power in the Blood album. You have great taste Ralph.

I used to take The Observer every Sunday until around 10 years ago Kev, and they had a really good music section where they reviewed new releases, and I bought quite a few CD's on the strength of some rave reviews. Exile on Coldharbour Lane was one of those.

Mark Carney the ex-chief of the Bank of England and now Canada's Prime Minister made a similar comment recently about world trade.

He said: "If you're not at the table you're on the menu".

Sounds absolutely perfect Tikay, and well deserved me time after all those years working.

I have an eclectic taste in music too, a lot of cross overs with your mentions. I have a couple of suggestions for you to check out. Firstly a band I've been banging on a out for 20 years or more, Alabama 3. Best known for the soundtrack to the Sopranos "Woke up this morning " Secondly a band I saw for the first time last year after my eldest son introduced them to me in 2020 namely Black Keys. Both amazing live.

Have missed my golf but I'm not a fan of sludgy courses or the rain. Hopefully get a game in over the next few weeks if conditions change. Off to beautiful Killarney in April with my son to play Mahoney's point and can't wait. https://killarneygolfclub.ie/

Anyway looking forward to more retirement stories and golf reports in the thread.
