If I could only listen to one female singer for the rest of my life it would be Tina. Also a great example of how a woman can survive an abusive relationship and really get her life back.

A brave and resilient woman! Had the privilege of seeing her in the Kings Hall in 1990 - an absolutely incredible performer - such energy! I have been to hundreds of concerts and that one is way up there in my top 3!

UVF or UFF - self praise means nothing.

Best isn't a word to be used in connection with either unless applied to criminality or somesuch. :whistle:

What's the obsession with that song for them? It's incredibly (for want of a better term) gay. They are mostly in the closet anyway.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

Maj Gen Sergei Goryachev, aged just 52, whilst on holiday in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine. Such a shame.

And Commonwealth Gold a couple of years later - the greatest and most memorable sporting victory in any sport in 1966. :duck:
