    Em, Liverpool are playing WBA on Sunday. :pac:

    Take something for that wooping cough. You can be boards' first positive. :P

    Anyone got an abacus? I'll need one for Stoke's visit to Stamford Bridge on Saturday. Double figures, methinks.

    Lovin your party pieces racheljev

    Yep, pretty classy alright. As I got older, I moved onto anything by the kids from fame ('Starmaker' anyone?) and Dan Fogelberg - very heavily influenced by my aunt's record collection!

    - wow, I'm impressed Rachel, you must have some voice. I haven't a note in my head :o

    The No.1 song the day I was born was "Don't go Breaking My Heart" - Elton John & Kiki Dee. Anytime I'm in the car with my Dad, and it comes on the radio, he reminds me of this!

    Stevie Wonder's 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' was mine, not too bad...

    Not sure about the album though: 'Now, That's What I Call Music III' Start of a long series of albums I guess...
