I have just got back from a few days in Caernarfon and did some walking around Snowdonia\u2026which reminded me of the song I have sent you\u2026.The Legend of Prince Madoc. It\u2019s a gentle song performed by my mate Paul Damian\u2026.it tells the story of how the WELSH discovered America 300 years before Columbus. I composed and arranged it in an acoustic style which works well.\n\n \nVolkswagon have been filling the news over here with their \u201ccheating\u201d regarding the emissions\u2026.again it\u2019s GREED.\n\nAs far as I am concerned they are the most overrated car on the road\u2026and I\u2019ve had two of them\u2026I once bought a brand new VW Golf\u2026.worst car I ever had\u2026RUBBISH\u2026.there was allsorts wrong with it from indicators not working to the automatic choke cutting out every day\u2026.later I bought a VW Caddy van which I used for the group\u2026again load of rubbish\u2026.the exhaust disconnected on the motorway\u2026and the back door had to be opened from the inside\u2026.I went to the dealer who said the whole mechanism needs replacing\u2026120 quid\u2026.when I checked it out it was down to a small spring on the handle which had worked loose (about 2p) clipped it back on and all was well\u2026so I hope VW get a roasting\u2026I would NEVER entertain another one.\n\n \n\nI have been watching the breakfast show on ITV\u2026.or should I call it \u201cThe girlie show\u201d\u2026.there is Kate Garraway AND Susanna Reid side by side reading the news both giggling and talking over each other\u2026then they have the main news read by Ranvia Singh then it\u2019s over to Lorraine for her show\u2026all rambling on about how sexy David Beckham is\u2026.not forgetting the weather girl\u2026oh yes and not forgetting the occasional BLOKE\u2026..ONE person could do the lot.\n\nTrouble is if you turn to the BBC all you get is how they are trying to find cures for all sorts of illnesses etc\u2026..or moaning about the NHS.\n\nSomebody once said of Little and Large\u2026..Eddie Large should lose 9 stone\u2026Syd Little\u2026.\n\nThen I thought of who I wouldn\u2019t miss if they were removed from my screen\u2026.Alan Carr with his dreadful chattyman show with his squawking and stupid cocktail cabinet and his unfunny gay inuendo which we are all sick of\u2026.the panel and the backstage families on the X Factor wouldn\u2019t be missed\u2026and we don\u2019t need JUDGES\u2026let\u2019s just see the acts\u2026.and I certainly wouldn\u2019t miss ALL the soaps.\n\nWhat they should have is a channel to put all this garbage on\u2026then those who want to watch it can sit there with there eyes fixed on the screen and nothing going on in their head\u2026.then I would know what to avoid.\n\n \n\n4.Roger Moore is about to go on the road with a sort of chat show where he tells the audience about his many anecdotes\u2026.he seems a very modest sort of chap and I remember him way back in the day as Ivanhoe\u2026wasn\u2019t mad keen on his James Bond but then I am not a Bond fan\u2026he sure looks good for 88!!....speaking of which Daniel Craig comes from Hoylake and a chap I play golf with knows a bloke who went to school with him\u2026said he was a bit of a wimp in school\u2026.didn\u2019t do bad though did he?\n\n \n\n5.I watched a very interesting documentary on George Martin\u2026.what an incredible talented man\u2026.he mentioned that when The Beatles were about to do their last album Lennon said to him \u201cwe don\u2019t want any of your rubbish on it\u201d\u2026meaning orchestration\u2026.he seemed quite hurt\u2026also Lennon was featured on another programme when he did that sick \u201cclap your hands or stamp your feet\u201d thing on stage supposedly mimicking the disabled\u2026.not funny\u2026.George Martin MADE the Beatles\u2026..just about sums John Lennon up\u2026.I was never a fan.
