Just because it is one of the funniest songs of all time...

And sometimes we all need something to laugh out loud at... :) :laugh:

Totally agree - absolutely brilliant. Saw a programme About Victoria Wood recently and was continually minded how many brilliant things she has written and performed - she is a real national treasure

I remember the first time I ever saw this, I laughed so much I couldn't get my breath and had tears rolling down my face..It's just perfect isn't it.

Me too. Absolute stitches. Wish I could have written that. :silly:

In fact if I could have three wishes as to what I could have written in my life it would have been The Lord of the Rings, the script for the musical We Will Rock You, and the Ballad of Barry and Freda

I remember from the age of 12 to 14 I really wanted to be a standup comedian..Now with the wisdom of age I think how the hell do they summon the courage to get up infront of all those people night after night?

I think my act would have to consist of a big screen with a microphone behind it so I couldn't see or be seen lol..

Dutch. Three things I wish I had had chance to write:

1) Thatcher's obituary.
2)A note to be left on the pillow of Keren from Bananarama, saying, \"Thanks for last night. 5/10 for effort but your technique didn't pass muster. I was particularly disappointed at how quickly you were...ahh...satisfied. Give me a bell if you want to practice a bit more.\"
3) That graffiti on the big exit doors on the Pop Side at OBV that said \"Weaver is Richardson's bum boy.\"

Never knew it was called that, but I remember it well. 'Beat me on the bottom with my womans weekly' is the line I always remember.

I would give that a nice cleverly written smile all way through the song, but no belly laughs JB. Still good to hear it again though.
