If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

If either of you where ever one of the planks that sat down during the James song of the same name, please may I take this opportunity to apologise for accidentally on purpose giving you a sly kick.
I may also have tried to steal your girlfriend, again, sorry about that.
Sorry, I always though James were gash, and sitting down in Spiders was a guaranteed way of catching typhoid.

No need to apologise, they were and still are. I liked them best when they sold more T-shirts than records.

Unlikely, in all honesty.

True, but I take issue with James being gash - for 'Sometimes', if nothing else. Still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand-up.

But you're a scientist, ergo, your views don't count in matters of musical taste.

The service at Warrington was shocking, some plump girl/thing was coughing and sneezing, didn't quite fancy my hotdog after noticing her coughing into her hands, luckily they'd ran out! I Asked her to tell someone else to get me a coffee and told her she should be at home.
