b'Cliff\\u2026.oh dear\\u2026the witch hunt continues\\u2026as usual no charges \\u2013 probably no real evidence\\u2026yet he\\u2019s all over the papers\\u2026.guilty before he\\u2019s even spoken to.\\nI think we are all getting a bit sick of all this\\u2026.I\\u2019m not a fan of Cliff as you know (he just wont go away) BUT he has got a bit of a rough ride ahead of him and I do feel for him\\u2026.his faithful fans are buying his record in an attempt to get it to the top of the charts\\u2026.the whole thing is a disgrace and all this trial by media needs sorting out\\u2026preferably by a judge who can keep awake.\\n \\n2.Jon Culshaw is back on the tele\\u2026.I am a massive fan\\u2026I love impressionists (your mate Paul Melba being a top rater) and Jon Culshaw is the best\\u2026he is so funny and talented.\\nI\\u2019ve always found impressionists to be really entertaining especially live\\u2026.give me a good one as opposed to a good singer any day.\\nHe was on Aled Jones\\u2019s Sunday morning programme (which is excellent) and he was brilliant.\\n \\n3.There\\u2019s a new celebrity challenge programme reared its head called \\u201cTumble\\u201d\\u2026and involves celebs doing acrobatics (after weeks of training) live\\u2026.seems to me to be an accident waiting to happen\\u2026.the panel of judges mark them on their efforts\\u2026and soon the public will be able to vote by phone\\u2026like the public know what they are talking about\\u2026.which will make a few bob for ITV\\u2026.can\\u2019t see the point myself\\u2026another dud\\u2026I didn\\u2019t think anything could be worse than \\u201cSplash\\u201d\\u2026.but I was wrong.\\n \\n4.You\\u2019ve gotta laugh in this country\\u2026.everyone is moaning about the intended increase in train fares\\u2026.the authorities reckon it\\u2019s to maintain the tracks etc\\u2026and the companies only get 3p in the pound profit\\u2026.so why create another service which will cost BILLIONS?...that\\u2019s a lot of 3ps\\u2026.and where\\u2019s the money coming from?.....no wonder the new high speed service has suddenly gone quiet\\u2026.keep building fellas while nobody is noticing\\u2026.and hope the farmers don\\u2019t see you ruining their land.\\n \\n5.The song I have attached is called \\u201cBeatle City\\u201d which I was commissioned to compose around the mid 80s by the then Merseyside County Council.\\nThey wanted it to be called by the title but I felt it was cashing in a bit\\u2026.but when you get a big order for a vinyl 45 you go along with their wishes\\u2026.I talked them into creating their own label thus becoming the first council to release a record\\u2026.they sold it in the libraries and souvenir shops etc and it sold very well\\u2026the B side was a rocker called Merseybeat Memories which mentioned a load of old groups.\\nIt\\u2019s always nice to sell a job lot.\\nI don\\u2019t think I have a copy of the 45\\u2026..MIGHT BE WORTH A FORTUNE NOW!!!!'
