It was party time on Saturday night. A 40th birthday no less for my mates girlfriend, in their rather plush mansion in the country with a fish and chip van in the back garden for catering ..

top that!
The theme was pink , so my I love ballet pink peak cap, nail varnish and pink hair spray should have gone down a treat, but ..

everyone else played the safe card and wore a shirt/dress/t-shirt/body warmer in a shade of pink as opposed to over doing it and looking stupid like me .. but I was comfortable with my decision.

.
It was a very good party too. A fair few family members played their part, including Uncle Melvyn and his mad-cap antics on the dance floor providing entertaining chat and laughs all evening.


The late night just got later and later though, and big thanks to Mr Ely the designated driver taking us home .. I d hate to have to communicate with a drunken version of me as all I can do is be giggly amorous, poor bloke had a three of us all in a similar state too, he must have some brownie points with karma by now.

.
I vaguely remember my last trip to the bathroom and seeing broad daylight and hearing the morning birds singing at me. Suffice to say, Sunday was a full on hangover from the Planet Feellikecrap.

.
Happy Birthday Jane.
Damn my forgetful mind .

. I had three good points of trivia to blog and the third one slipped my mind earlier, so I added the footy thing in for good measure ..

whilst discussing life at rehearsal tonight, it came to me .. the best trivia of all - that even had the drummer looking stunned!

I heard it on the news this morning in a haze of a.m.ness .

.
Pope Ratzinger is a former member of the Hitler Youth!
I couldn t quite believe it when I heard it.

I am not of religious persuasion, and I know all things can be forgiven, but surely there is a conflict of interest going on there. I just Googled Pope Hitler and I m obviously behind the times, if you pardon the pun, as it was in the .
I have been surprising myself with the amount of useless trivia I can learn of late, but there are few snippets that would nearly make pub talk .

.

  • Mick Jones (Clash guitarist - you are my gee-tar hero bloke) had a long term relationship with Wendy James (Transvision Vamp) in the 90s. I may have been hidden under a stone (is it just me?

    ), but I was really surprised by this, Mick may be iconic and gifted, but Wendy was the pin up of my student generation and I hardly think it fair for him to take all that away without telling anyone.

  • Ozzy s wife Sharon s Dad was Don Arden (not Lou Adler, thanks Wast!
