I didn't think you'd have time to search for lyrics John. I thought you'd be busy watching "Saboteurs" on a constant loop.

If that's a bit too cryptic - check the listings for More 4 at 21:00 on Friday nights

Not too cryptic, no, but I only understood the reference because a well known forum member who resides outwith the UK messaged me the other day to advise that La Friel was appearing on the telly. I find myself watching fewer and fewer TV shows these days because even the good stuff - with old car content and similar - is becoming predictable, IMHO and so less able to hold my wavering attention than was once the case. I rarely miss Country File though, especially since Ellie Harrison has been a regular presenter.


@Rich: There's nothing bad about having a wee crush on a/the Spice Woman/Women, no need to be ashamed, you're among sensitive, empathic souls here.

never had a crush on those ladies... sigourney weaver on the other hand....

"Wannabe" By The Spice Girls.

Is there a version of that "song" in English?

i had a look & its only available in fluent gibberish.. have you tried google translate?

Rich, you have to try this:

Copy and paste the song lyric into Google Translate and make the output Japanese then copy the Japanese translation and translate that back to English. Believe it or not, the words make even less sense that way!

i managed to get it into french & japanese.... i did listen couldnt manage to get it back into english though.. i think ive broken google

The things I find myself doing..

OK, translation below. This is from English to Japanese and back to English and it's very useful as it tells us that the song is a fascinating tale of land deals, prostitution and low quality inner city accommodation:
