Summary: The song this week "Subway Songman" is one I wrote back in the day after watching a busker in Liverpool....I have sent it because I spent last week in Bowness in the Lake District and it was very cold......I came out of the local supermarket to see an old guy sitting on the pavement with a blanket around him and his dog...with a hat on the floor....he looked up at me and smiled...I chucked a couple of quid in his hat and thought how wrong this is....it's 2018....this should not happen....and I had just read a headline on the newspaper stand inside the shop..."Ant 31 million divorce settlement".........which brings me to the next topic. Ant McPartlin...50% of Ant and Dec has recently been divorced with a record settlement of 31 MILLION pounds to his missus....can someone PLEASE tell me how this bloke is worth this sort of money....what does he do?....apart from stand at the side of the Britain-s Got Talent stage with his grinning idiot other "comedy" half......62 million?...it's obscene...ANYONE can do it...similarly newsreaders and chat show hosts are in the same boat....ANYONE can do it..that moaning woman reporter has just resigned after refusing a £45000 rise because it still leaves her salary less than the men....how sad.....and yet a nurse who trains for years to gain the skills to help saves lives gets £25000 a year....which is ONE EIGHTIETH of Chris Evans salary....and we are constantly being told there isn't enough money for police or the NHS.....THIS IS WHY !! On the subject of money....Prince William has had a haircut (big news).....it cost £180....why? he hasn't GOT any hair......looks like a 50 pence job to me.....and Harry-s Meghan bought a new designer coat (or something) and within an hour the same item was sold out as the sheep went on the stampede....it makes me want to go out and get covered in tattoos ... talk with a squeaky voice...and have my brain removed to be like Beckham......and talking of hairstyles I fail to see the point of a "man bun"....it looks hideous....and an earring does not belong on a bloke unless he's a pirate...just my opinion..... The Voice is back....which is my cue to change channels....it has to be the most successful load of tripe ever....with a panel of strange misfits including Sir Tom who looks like he is trying to stay awake....success in the music business isn't just about the voice or who can shout the loudest...if you want to make the big time....it does not require your whole family...including granddad... in the wings cheering you on....it's dreadful.....and I've just seen an advert for DJ Trevor Nelson's Collection....yet another bandwagon jumper....it is apparently his favourite "cool" songs...by the original artists...with a picture of Trev on the sleeve relaxing in a chair.....no wonder the music biz is in tatters......maybe we should get Trev and Mike Parkinson to SING a few tracks off their collection albums....a good way of clearing the place. And finally they have had some attention seeking woman on TV suggesting we ban the national anthem in schools and it was entertaining to see Piers Morgan shouting her down.......and not forgetting the film awards presented by women...announcing proudly that women are now in control of their destinies......I assume that is providing there are still enough millionaires they can latch on to?.....did I say that or think it?.......and there has been a national outcry and support for the SAS guy who was involved in the Iranian Embassy siege in the 80's.....he has hit hard times and can't get a council house....despite one of the terrorists living in one..........what was it J.C. said "The meek shall inherit the earth"....he wasn't far wrong.
