That song's certainly a change from 'Ace of Spades'. I also like a good ballad, including this Country classic;

Yeah, young Robbie Williams did ok after I went solo didn't he ;) Keith Urban is a local boy from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, he has also done okay in the music industry :cool: Let's see if this substitute Norwegian arty video works;

Thank you for your input George, you are correct of course, but a figure here and there helps out and may start a passion for collecting Toy Soldiers.

Some Black & White Arty tracks;

Great to see a related military hobby prospering, I don't know how popular Table War Gaming is in Australia. However, I've met several guys into Online War Gaming such as Call of Duty etc, and had some interesting discussions with kids about Sten guns etc. I was kinda surprised to meet younger...

A sad loss, I did hear he had been unwell for some time.

I've had similar experiences with opening doors etc, and your encounter reminds me of a recent 'incident' with a 'Trolley Bay' when I reversed into one at a local shopping mall, dented the back of my old Mitsubishi Outlander. The metal piping was hard to see being low and dark grey colour, and...

Thanks for that Steve, I have subscribed to that channel to check out the other videos in that series as my Father served in Lancasters in WW2.

On a more serious note, and extending this 'censoring' beyond this forum, is overzealous censoring of 'swearing' another example of increased 'anti male' (Misandry) actions in society? I believe it is, and it's another issue I have added to 'things that annoy me', to the degree that I now...

The increasing use of regional accents is just another thing I can add to my increasing list of 'things that annoy me' as I age :unsure: :) Not to mention random expressions such as 'Dogging', even the locals get confused with that 😁

Kev, I'm not sure who I had 'Texas' confused with, most likely 'The Pretenders', the female lead singers looking similar to a young guy in far away Australia. AI agrees ;) Yes, many people have noted a resemblance between Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders and Sharleen Spiteri of Texas, often...

Texas was a surprise, I didn't know they sang that song.

Thanks Mate, what music are you into apart from Rock? I am interested in a wide range of music genres, currently have over 1,000 songs on my Spotify and Youtube Music apps divided into Six different genres, Chill/Blues/Jazz being the latest list added. Never thought I would acquire a taste for...

That's interesting Steve, and I have noticed that some Irish say 'Sometink' and Scottish people saying 'Summit'. Another of the many accent differences I have noticed on TV is people from the UK pronouncing the filler word 'Erm' instead of 'Umm', the later 'Umm' pronounciation being more...

I'm not judging people by their accent, however professional communicators should try harder despite their origins. Is 'Somethink' a Northern thing, AI seems to think so. Key aspects of the "Somethink" pronunciation: Origin: The feature is often linked to Northern English dialects...

Not bad, they certainly have the Elvin vibes. The MJQ video finally decided to play for me, no scary BBB (Big Brass Bands), so all good. Looks like you're getting into Scandi Music Kev. I've had some AI bands pop up on my Youtube feed lately, some better than you would expect;

Your Modern Jazz video won't play for me Kev, maybe best ha ha A happy little country song;

Your Cambridge Audio system would be ideal, I used to have a NAD (New Accoustic Diemnsion) Hi Fi system before I went digital, which was okay for the price, but sold it when I got rid of all my vinyl. I now make do with an LG Bluray theater setup for the TV on the rare occassions I play DVDs...

Despite our large country we only have Three accents in Australia; Broad, General and Cultivated, the later being most like 'Received English'. Paul Hogan is a comedian and uses a Broad accent to appeal more to the common man. I use a Broad accent because I'm common :cool: 😁

Same with everything else in life, we tend to be more offended by something that is 'foreign' or different to our experience. Personally I don't find foul language too offensive, but then I worked in 'Civil' construction for over a decade, so I guess I got used to it, and I naturally have a...
