I bet you at least half weren't from Yorkshire and more than half of them you'd probably class as southerners. Possibly. It was directed at the Orient anyway One of the benefits of the Welsh bit is I can claim to be neither northern nor southern, o' course...! Lunch, back in a few mins

The way he sings "you've got to shoot them with your Bop Gun" that one time, it's just TOO funky!!!! LOL, it is! Oh I also got hold of Mothership Connection - hence knowing where that "Glide in your stride and a dip in your hip" line comes from now! Yeah man, a song that kind of ties in with that is Give Up The Funk (Tear The Roof Off The Sucker), there'll be some more themes probably you'll recognise.

They were B-sides I think so it doesn't suprise me much but where are you looking, where did you find Bop Gun and The Mothership Connection for example.

Ah another one of those P2P websites, better than Limewire? Less viruses? Might use it if it's good. But.... y'know if you can't find the funkiest tunes you can always buy the CDs. They're pretty cheap actually. There's a whole lot of funking going round. WOOO!

I love the way that so many people who aren't from London claim to hate it when in reality they're just jealous as it's better than where they live. They wish they could have the money that's going round there, the transport that is a cut above the rest of the UK, and a never ending list of activities and ways to have a good time there. In all fairness Leeds is great and I could happily live here after uni, but if I had the money I'd be straight down to London to join the wealthy graduate class who have loads of fun.

I do like the north, Leeds is an awesome city to go to uni in, Newcastle and Sheffield are meant to be similar, the Lake District is one of my favourite places in the UK. But for somebody who loves action going on and a lively place to live, London is ideal, certainly more than any other city in the UK. And I've already seen your jealousy, "People in London get anything they want form the council etc.". And if that attitude makes me a twat, it's not really my problem.

I realise I seem to be becoming more right wing already since my socialist sixth form days, but the truth is every city has a class who can live a more fun and comfortable life there, and whether it's fair or not, if you can afford to join it and have a cool life, why not? I see the great times my high flying sisters have, I don't really see what's wrong with joining the party if I'm successful enough.

I've already said that I love London I just get a bit sick of the assumption that because we live in the north we aren't cultured, we don't earn money, the south keeps us with their taxes, we aren't educated and bascially inferior to the south.
