me, on the telly!?
Remember this post?
If you can’t be bothered to click through to read, we basically recorded a segment for a new prime time BBC show following the families of the bride and groom working together to arrange a wedding on a budget.
Well the show has now finished its run and we were featured in the last episode on the 2nd August. Before setting off to the pub to watch it with the rest of the band I remembered to set the DVD recorder to immortalise us forever and, after much messing around on my PC, I managed to edit the show down and have uploaded the bits we were featured in. Click on the play button in the player below to view the clip.
Not a bad bit of air time all things considered. We did get a bit worried when watching it live though as we didn’t appear until about 5 minutes from the end!
we have lift off
STS117 launched last night at 00:40. Watched the launch live online and took a few screen grabs:
watch out Lewis..!
On the back of a stunning start to the new F1 season by Lewis Hamilton, McLaren must think that getting their drivers early is now the way to go as they have just signed Oliver Rowland into their driver induction programe
The 14 year old, who is from from Barnsley, will get the benefit of McLarens management, physical training, financial support and brainwashing advanced driver programming techniques…

the zimmers…
Ever thought that Take That were too old to still be called a Boyband? Do you think the Rolling Stones should retire? Well if you answered Yes to both of these questions then you are gonna LOVE this…welcome to the wonderful world of THE ZIMMERS!
Formed in early 2007, The Zimmers are not only the oldest gigging band in the world (with an average age of 78), they are also the most celebrated, having recorded their debut album at the famous Abbey Road Studios, under the watchful eye of Acclaimed Producer Mike Hedges.
Oh and by the way, don’t tell them you think this is funny, with more aggression than Nirvana and more talent than The Beatles, these OAP’s are here to stay. Their first single ‘My Generation’ is released on May 14th. Expect it to climb faster than a Stenna Stair Lift!
Other songs in THE ZIMMERS repertoire include ‘Firestarter’ by The Prodigy, ‘When I’m (one hundred and)64′ by The Beatles and the live favorite (Jermain Stewarts worldwide hit) ‘We Don’t have to take our clothes off (to have a good time)’.

schoolboy error!
Hah!
After being passed at the start by both Hamilton and Alonso, Masa went from from pole to 3rd in two corners. A few corners later and Masa managed to go off at turn four trying to pass Hamilton and being forced into the error by Hamilton in only his second grand prix! Masa dropped to 5th and never really recovered, whereas Lewis and Alonso scored McLarens first 1/2 for some time…
After a 3rd at his first GP, 2nd at his second, roll on Bahrain, Hamiltons first win?
