♫ They said Tammy, stand by the JAMMS

By car, ship, train and now ice cream van, the lads are always moving, subverting and prolonging the joke for as long as they can. Caught this on Gold 104.3FM radio driving the other week too

it's marie kondo the shed weekend ahead. sparks no joy.. or just isn't safe to spark anymore like the 4 stroke lawnmower that rusted through at the end of' 21.. gone to the hard rubbish collection gods
December 4, 2025 at 10:26 AM
i'm going to sell the big thing in the shed i've been carting around for ages in january. problem is, it's a really good thing, it's just kind of useless to me but i don't want to see it go to landfill and would rather find someone that could use it

4 - A song with four words in the title

Been there, done that - Brian Eno & John Cale

♫ But the time we had
Dirty clothes and dirt on our walls
Swinging on the bathroom doors
Thinking we were having a ball
Until somebody said they'd
Been there, done that

12 America, what time is love?

♫ Mu Mu

It's all kinds of stupid, never bothered to pick this up in the day and don't regret it now. Still makes the list whereas 'Kylie said to Jason' didn't as it made me laugh out loud whilst watching again last night.

The pushbike song - The Mixtures

♫ You looked so pretty
as you were singing this song

Apparently a rip off of a Mungo Jerry song but then Mungo Jerry also did their own cover of it, so *makes i don't know sound*. But here we are.
