    Also added "Dynamite" from Cliff Richard and the Shadows. That's a cool 50's number. I love the way the Shadows played back then. "She's Gone" is another forgotten gem, with Hank Marvin's licks, a cool laid back swing beat and Jet Harris's menacing bass.
    Good stuff. The best Cliff tracks I reckon were "Apron Strings" and "High Class Baby" which has the added benefit of not sounding like Cliff at all.

    Also by Billy Fury "Don't Knock Upon My Door". Top track.

    I like "Turn my back on you" and "Gonna type a letter". Old school '50s me.

    Went to uni in Northern Ireland, bombs etc every week.
    So I would not let the things you have suggested stop me doing anything. If you start being afraid where do you stop?

    If your time is up, nothing you can do, so you might as well do everything you want to do while you can.

    But leading my double life as a contractor on CUK and a cleaner in Tesco, can be a bit draining.

    Why not go somewhere nice, like Switzerland or Italy?

    edit: I just remembered, you're based in Switzerland anyway. DOH!
