What Is The Average Age Of Northern Fans
I'm 41, and Justin's 36, but he's had a hard life . My first niter (apart from scooter rallies) was the 100 Club. I've still got my old membership card and judging by the completely fictitious date of birth on it I obviously pretended I was 3 years older, so I must have been 15 and it would have been 1982. There are loads of us my age who came out of the mod revival and scooter scene, but I've always felt pretty young at most niters. It's quite comforting really. Mind you I always feel about 93 when I go to places like Southport.

This Q May Arse A Few Off
To chase tasty birds in their 30s and 40s... or accompany their own lovely wives of course. And long may they continue.

Col, can't decide if you're trying to be Deirdre Barlow, Christopher Biggins or a member of CHiPs in this one...

Soul Singers Called Pete Or Peter
I checked the iPod and the only Petes we've got are the Peter Moore Orchestra and Peter Cooke & Dudley Moore Daniel Dombrowe in Germany was just saying to me the other day that he's trying to think of names for his new baby boy who's due next week, and he really wanted Marvin, but that's apparently really popular with East German chavs over there...

The Flyer Of 2008 ?
There have been some artistic crackers lately, but for pure memorable humour I think the fish have it this year. Overall though Andy of VSC is the paper flyer genius imo. His phonebox flyer for the Cardiff niter from a couple of years ago has got to be the best of all time - creative, colourful, and very very funny. My flyer wall at home is mostly papered with his stuff, including his classic 'bag of atmosphere'. We bow to the master No pressure obviously mate, ha ha. I'd love to see a book of the best & most memorable over the years. Has it ever been done? T

The Furthest Who Regularly Travelled
Was chatting to some nice lads the other night at Keele, Jamie who lives in Southampton and his brother Andy who lives in Newquay hi lads. Andy does the driving and collects Jamie on the way. They do the 100 Club every month and often further afield. Deserve a freaking medal if you ask me. Furthest I ever drove for one night only was Shotts in Scotland from South London in a Ford Fiesta Popular Plus 1.1...

Have I Lost My Soul
Think you need a decent full-length niter plus three hours of saucy Sunday morning speedsex when you get home. Give that Kev Moore a ring, I've heard he's good.

Sadly that made both me and Justin laugh. Apart from being international super housewife and sometime HR director, I have to do all his decorating quotations and invoicing... Blimey, every bugger's a decorator on here. 'I could paint a picture' R B Hudmon?

Whistle While You Work
Ooh, you're easy Chris, ooer matron! 'Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours' Or for this time of year, maybe 'The Cold Letter' by the Soul Shakers, ha ha.

Colin Anscomb's an accident lawyer so he said he'll have 'Hit and Run' Perkin puts the in-flight entertainment films onto the planes at Heathrow. Any ideas? What about you Mr Rimmer - A House Is Not A Home?

Whistle While You Work
While we were travelling to a niter recently in the Price family bus, we started dreaming up theme tunes to match our occupations, triggered by 'Wash and wear love' for Freckles as he has a dry cleaning business . I work in HR so got 'Job opening', Justin's a painter so he got 'Paint yourself in the corner', chef Tommy Hall got 'Double cookin', Lucy in the NBC newsroom got 'Headline news', Julia who works for a young person's charity got Marvin's 'Save the children'. We were a bit stuck for Angela who's an expatriate tax specialist, but I'm sure someone can come up with something... So, give us a giggle and let's hear yours.

Can Anyone Help With This
There are definitely regional variations on the clapping. Me & Angela went down to Newquay earlier this year and it was a completely different ball game. We clapped at the usual intervals and the piano stopped and everyone turned round to look at us . I'll never forget Taff from Newton Aycliffe had a broken thumb all strapped up one month at Keele, but couldn't stop himself from clapping throughout, so all you could hear was 'clap ouch! clap ouch! clap ouch!'

Is It Just Me
So true, Sean Chapman and also Warren Boogaloo are a joy to watch as they're just so into it. There are also a couple of DJs who shall remain nameless that I rather fancy and I'd happily pay to watch them stand there with their arms folded not even putting any records on. But then I think I've probably spent too long indoors with three under-fives...

Letchworth 5th Dec 2008
A fine early Christmas affair in Hertfordshire - all the berks were out from Berkhamsted, the bores from Borehamwood, and all the er, leches, from Letchworth...
