I was in HMV in Bath yesterday...
Posted by Patrick Crowther on 23 October 2009 - 6:03pm.
and saw the following printed on one of their DVD divider cards: TWO PINTS OF LARGER AND A PACKET OF CRISPS.
Just thought I'd share that with you.

Me fail English?
That's unpossible!
But..
..why would you be looking there, anyway?!
The DVD was in the front of the rack!
I am not a fan of that programme (that's putting it mildly), but if I was I would say so!
No... I was looking for a best of Little and Large DVD. ;-)
Should that be Little and Larger?
?
Very...
good! :-)
Prospero Brooks
in the OST section of my much missed Tower Records in Glasgow c.1990
Brother Blast
I misread the subject of that and thought for a moment you'd visited Crouch End and not looked me up. We have a bookshop called Prospero's Books.
would but I had
oh my brother, someday Carl, someday...
Prospero Brooks
sounds a great name for a gritty private walking the mean streets, though he himself is not mean - yada yada. As does, incidentally enough, my deceased great-uncle Moses Holmes.
Paul McCartney and his Wigs
In a Karaoke selection book in Majorca
Kings Of Leo
My mate who is terrible with band names, went into his local HMV and asked if they had the new "Sons Of Leo" album in. His brother is equally as bad, he told me that Chris Rea's "Highway To Hell" was one of his favourite albums!
Oops
Back in t'80's, my friends mother went to HMV and asked for the new LP by Kick Me In The Coconuts.
Rick O'Shea
Seminal Tangerine Dream album, as spotted in Robdog Records, Buxton circa 1982 - although I suspect that one was deliberate.
Wasn't he a DJ
in Thunderbirds?
Ray Vaughn
was in Phoenix Nights
Literals uber alles
Way back when, Smash Hits (whatever happened to etc) used to publish an indie records chart - full of serried ranks of be-leathered and be-studded punk bands that us spikey young iconoclasts loved. Top of the charts one week was Holiday in Cambodia by a band seemingly called the Dwad Kennedys. My pig-thick cousin (no need to worry, he won't read this; well, he won't read anything, frankly) spent two days trying to convince me that Jello Biafra and co had evidently changed their name from the Dead Kennedys. Power of the press, innit
I have a CD by the popular beat combo called 10cc
and on the spine in capital letters is printed its name:
10CC THE ORIGUNAL SOUNDTRACK.
It is the digital remaster on the Mercury label, a Polygram company, who proudly announce that the remaster graphics are by 'GL & JL / Graphyk', who should be ashamed of themselves.
Being Bath, I'm surprised it didn't say
"TWO POINTS UV ZOIDER AND A PAACKIT UV PORK SCRAATCHINS, MOI DAARLUN'".
