Samuel’s Musicians Of The Week

This week (backdated to Sunday) the award goes to…………….The Beatles.

And my current favourite song from them:

It was twenty years ago today,
Sergeant Pepper taught the band to play,
they’ve been going in and out of style,
but they’re guaranteed to raise the smile.
So may I introduce to you,
the act you’ve known for all these years,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

We’re Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,
we hope you will enjoy the show,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,
sit back and let the evening go,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

It’s wonderful to be here,
it’s certainly a thrill,
you’re such a lovely audience,
we’d like to take you home with us, we’d love to take you home.

I don’t really want to stop the show,
but I thought you might like to know,
that the singer’s going to sing a song
and he wants you all to sing along.
So let me introduce to you,
the one and only Billy Shears,
and Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

(reprise)

We’re Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,
we hope you have enjoyed the show,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,
we’re sorry, but it’s time to go.

Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely, Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely.

Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,
we’d like to thank you once again.
Sergeant Pepper’s one and only Lonely Hearts Club Band,
it’s getting very near the end.

Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely, Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely,
Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Of all the stupid thing people do

There were plenty of instances of stupidity in the last 24 hours, but one in particular takes the cake. Near where I live there is a large communal rubbish hopper, somebody in their infinite wisdom decided that the best orientation for this was on it’s back. How they managed this I will never know, what I do know however is that the hopper was more or less full at the time and as such has now left a rather unholy mess.
I was going to take a photo or two of it, but before I had the chance the rubbish truck company (I think it is Cleanaway) came and returned the bin to a more natural orientation. They did however omit to clean up the mess and move the bin back a metre to it’s normal location.
The bin is now roughly a metre forward of it’s usual undercover location (bin now subject to rainfill) and has an incredible mess behind it.
I must remember to take the digital camera out to photograph this absurd mess tommorow (erm, today)…stay tuned for the photos.
