McTell was originally going to call the song "Streets of Paris"[2]— but eventually London was chosen, because he realised he was singing about London;[3] also, there was another song called "The Poor People of Paris".[4]

A few days ago I was boasting about getting up before 10:00. Now I'm going to bed after midday. :lol:

I decided to reduce my drinking to once a week so now I feel like drinking until Wednesday to lessen the gap. :lol: :lol:

Just seeing the King's pageantry, it's quite comical seeing soldiers marching in step ... followed by a group of judges wondering about as though they're pissed and even bumping into each other. :lol:

What man would want to work for the BBC right now? :lol:

It ain't me. I don't work for the BBC, nor do I pay the licence fee. :)

Thanks for clearing that up, I thought it was me-me! All I need now is a clear definition of what it means! Many times I thought I 'got it' only to see the definition did not apply to the next one! :D

I only found out when I heard the word mentioned on the news. I still prefer me-me and my sister once had a cat called Mia that I would call Me-Me. :)

The BBC should publish a list of all male employees on 6-figure salaries and then we could tick them off as we eliminate them. Would make a great game. :lol:

There is a picture doing the rounds on the internet that "looks very much like" a well known news reader from Wales with their derriere out in the photo
