Summary: The heatwave has struck again....so the hosepipe bans are back....not to mention the empty reservoirs....the news is having a field day scaring everyone. Then we have the rising cost of our energy bills with the news telling us we could not only starve because we wont be able to afford food....we will also freeze......how did we survive when we were young with no central heating etc? The main supermarkets are doing their bit....they have stopped selling those disposable barbecues.....which will prevent careless picnickers setting the country on fire.......I wonder which items on their shelves will quietly increase to cover their losses. In between the blanket athletic sport we have the return of the football.....withManchester noted bottom of the table with Everton close by.....I'd rather watch the young lady gymnasts showing the world what REAL talent is......Man U. should sign one of them up as a goalie. I watched a fascinating documentary on ABBA with an in depth chat with Agnetha.....the band produced a lot of masterpieces and for my money were top of the tree. The song this week is a classic which Ricky Nelson recorded back in the 50s.....it was known for it's great guitar solo by James Burton who played on all of Ricky's early hits prior to him joining Elvis in Vegas.....around 2008 James came over here to tour and I had the opportunity to join him in concert singing a selection of Ricky Nelson Hits......he then came over each year and I did 8 concerts with him over the years and we became good mates.....this is a live recording of one of the concerts as we launch into "Hello Mary Lou"
