Nah guvnor- you'll be after a cup of Rosey Lee. Now who's for a good old fashioned knees up round the piano? Altogether now "My old man said follow the van & don't dilly dally on the way" <img src="/images/graemlins/music.gif" alt="" /> Well we've got to be doing something instead of sex haven't we?

Aint we just guvnor. I'll have a nice cup of rosy lee instead with me fish and chips and then have 20 pints of lager and a punch up.

Hi everyone,

I'm the new Brit Telly editor.

Thought I'd pop in from the telly site for a cuppa, and a packet of cheese and onion. If I wasn't preggers, I'd be having a pint of Stella right now after the week I've had...

Have you lot all voted in the Robson Green Poll over on the British Telly site ? And we'd love to see you all on the forum..(hiya Gecko...)

Great to meet you all. Love your site Karyn !

Cheers,

Pam

Hey Pam, pleased to make your acquaintance!

Seems like you came in during a good time. Not sure what's going on, but we're all having fun, so who cares?

Cheers!

HAHA! Tell that to Bridget Jones!

Well, I hope they don't take it too seriously <img src="/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> (though I have my doubts.) Several years ago I heard about someone getting killed over a karaoke performance. The place catered primarily to Asians. One guy was up there singing and a guy from another group was laughing at him. When the laughing guy left, the "singer" followed him out into the parking lot and shot him dead! (I thought that was the point of it all - to get drunk, get up there and look stupid for the entertainment of the other patrons? <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)

But that sounds like some random thing that could happen anywhere. People have been shot for less than that. And in the States, to boot.

I just remember going to a karaoke bar once in England and a guy that was sitting at the table next to my friends and he went up and sang "American Woman" and dedicated it to us. It was pretty hilarious.

It is when I start singing. I've got a fabulous voice...sort of a cross between Tom Jones, Elvis and Lionel Richey. Oh, and Cliff Richards* (obviously) I had the audience literally choking the last time I sang. Well, they were a little bit rowdy admittedly, but I'm sure it's because they were so overcome with emotion. I'm looking forward to going back and singing some more once they've lifted the ban against me**

* Sir Cliff to you
** I'm sure Tom or Elvis didn't have this problem just because they waggled their pelvis

HAHAHAHA! I would love to listen to you do karaoke, actually. I'm sure you're all kinds of hilarious, if your posts on here are any indication of how you are in real life. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
