    Look, see what you need to do is
    (1) press youtube button,
    (2) you must copy and paste the final part of the URL code in between the tags - this means(a) go to the address bar on your youtube page of the video you wish to post ( b) copy the code at the end of the URL .. so instead of copying the full http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE0pwJ5PMDg
    just copy the bit after the =
    in this videobelow it is kE0pwJ5PMDg that you put between the tags.

    I remember (just about) when I was knee high to a grasshopper seeing the Honeycombs when they played in Ballybofey. It was the night of my sisters wedding and in those days the reception would have been wrapped up around 8 or 9 so a couple of my other sisters took me, the baby of the family, with them.

    I was a bit young but they (sisters) must have worked their charm on the doormen :)

    Jesus H Christ :eek: Fair play Cicero. I knew it was in around that era but I would never have found the date.

    Well thats not actually true. If I asked my eldest sister who was married that day, she would recall the date.......I hope :D

    As I say I was only a nipper but it was always something to boast about down the years especially when watching "Reeling in the Years" and the song would be aired and Id be telling my family....I seen them perform live :)

    This is a mighty song from the other McWilliams. The electro noise was made by using a megaphone. The lyrics are so sad and are in the Streets Of London mould.

    Incidentally Cicero, Honey Langtree was my heroine when I was a teen - I was the drummer in the school band (1963 - 67)

    Saw him at The Bridge House, Canning Town about 30 years ago. Brilliant! Stayed back for afters and everyone got pilled up or drunk. :D
    Also saw Dire Straights there in their pre-Sultans Of Swing days. AFAIK Drury died a few years ago.

    I used to live not far away in Tufnell Green and I even knew someone who worked there - The Hope and Anchor, Islington - but I left London in 1974, so this was a year after I'd gone, but it gives you an idea of some typical nights we had there and among others there was Jo-ann Kelly singing the blues, and up the road there was the Ducks Deluxe 'Showband' (that meant they had echo added to their sound and you had to wear a jacket and tie, if you wanted to get in)

    Vous rencontrez un haut moment franc ;). You probably meant Newington Green or Tufnell Park. Or am I having one? I lived in Finsbury in those days and used to go to The Kings and The Hope & Anchor on a Saturday night about once a month before heading to the Neville Arms for the lock-in :)

    Ah the ol' Soap and W*anker! They stuck to old money for years after the decimal coinage came in, if it's the pub in Islington. Lived in Islington - Canonbury actually - around that time....

    Yes I remember. The old L s and d till and the coinage. I think that they incurred the wrath of the judiciary ........... as did a trader in Chapel Mkt who kept selling his produce in lbs and ounces. That stretch has really changed. From Highbury Corner to The Angel is unrecognisable from those days. I wonder if the Kings Head theatre is still going? Some beautiful pubs in Canonbury.

    I'm not sure about the Hope and Anchor, but definitely at The King's Head, they did make a point of carrying on counting out your change in old money. They used to sell oranjeboom beer - that nobody could pronounce properly and they had a beautiful horse-shaped bar, if I remember. I've seen a bad comment about the landlord at the Hope switching off the juke box because he didn't like what was being played. Yes both pubs are still going though I believe the Hope went downhill and got taken over - it was a free house when I knew it.The King's Head was and still is known for theatre - once we got in to see a première there without knowing it - so we saw it for free. I do remember they had musicians there as well, and you could have a meal before the show, if you wanted which was nice.
