Totally does get you a cheaper ticket, also entrance to most attractions, and if you get a seniors railcard you can transfer it to your london oystercard and get one third off :cheer: . Londoners of course get free underground and buses at 60, us plebs elsewhere have to wait till 65 to get free bus passes. Assuming they havent managed a successful logans run for the pension age population by then either by intent or incompetence!

All that and a free eye test :lol:

I've had a bit of an Adam & The Ants binge over the past couple of days due to the effect of 'Prince Charming' being your #1 here *.* haven't listened to their stuff in ages, it's been good fun. What are your other favourites by them / solo Adam? (of course you touched upon some in the commentary, but would be interested in an ordered top 5/10 or something)
They are basically his four best songs - there's a few more worth listening to but none are anywhere near as good as those for me. If you listened to his best of Jade, it's one of those that starts with everything you need to hear really tbh

Thanks guys! That rate thing completely passed me by at the time :o

 

I think those would be my top 4 in some order as well so they have clear standouts :lol: 'Ants Invasion' would then probably round off my top 5. 'Stand And Deliver' is definitely my favourite of their songs but I much prefer 'Kings Of The Wild Frontier' as an album from the two that were huge.

 

+1 to any love about the 'Stand And Deliver' and 'Prince Charming' videos + 'Goody Two Shoes' TOTP performance *.* really exciting band/front man for visuals!

My fave is Goody Two Shoes.

Good to see Don't Leave Me This Way and Ebeneezer Goode make the Top 10! I Don't Feel Like Dancing and Karma Chameleon are both tunes as well.

The top ones are all very good :P

I'm toying with the idea of doing the number 7s from each of my birthdays.
