A Random Collection Of Stuff

The Fortunes are on tour right now & it's so good to see that all the royalties from 'Caroline' have enabled them to retire in style (just saying). OK, I know, they are doing this for the enjoyment and nostalgia, however serious question. If you watch all the tour video's is that the real demographic for sixties music fans today? Can't see many non pensioners & the whole number of matinees kind of give it away. Come on Atlantis & Caroline Flashback get in there, Tena pads are your bread and butter advertising opportunities, get in there.... 
And a couple of additional videos one for the happy memories of The Perfumed Garden and one for all BBC fans of yesteryear. Anyone keeping a count of how many vile pedophiles the BBC covered up from their beginning until now? 100 years of protecting them apparently, however the actual number (I am told) will astound the most hardy of folk!

When US Radio Was Fun...

7/4/2025

... and BBC radio was the monopoly of 'the state knows best' tedium radio. Which raises the question, whats really changed? Stifled OFCOM duo-polys, the BBC more a state broadcaster than ever, community radio (excuse the yawn) but if you need to sleep can I suggest Alfred in Shaftesbury whose target audience appears to be care homes and the local rich. As for Internet Radio, enjoy it while you can, it's the last beacon of fun and variety! And to think some stupid anoraks still think it's not real radio for technical blah blah blah...

Happy Fifth Anniversary of Lies & Deception

17/3/2025

Do you remember the BBC News and their crony opposites at Sky etc, insisting the COVID virus was definitely not a lab leak. Such anti Chinese sentiment was to much for the closet Marxists at the Beeb.

Oh well.... A March 2020 intelligence briefing to Prime Minister Boris Johnson from Sir Richard Dearlove, former head of MI6, and other security analysts stated that SARS-CoV-2 was engineered in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The disclosure of the British intelligence memo comes on the heels of almost identical disclosures from Germany’s foreign intelligence agency to Angela Merkel’s government.

Sir Richard’s briefing to Johnson contradicts a Nature Medicine paper by Andersen et al., suggesting that the paper’s authors may have been working to conceal the true origin of the virus, potentially on behalf of the People’s Republic of China.

The revelation raises questions about the involvement of people such as Anthony Fauci, Peter Daszak and Professor Ralph Baric, and suggests that governments, including those of the UK and Germany, may have knowingly concealed the laboratory origin of the virus from the public.

Five years on & BBC News are now regularly fact checking, verifying and grandstanding their Voice Of Truth credentials, almost as if this is all a narrative campaign '1984 Orwell' style. I can now confirm that our own fact checking of BBC News has proven positive and viewers and listeners are advised to put a mask over these serial muck spinners, and not inhale any of their viruses.

John Peel 1979

5/3/2025

33 Comments

 
1979 was not a good year for the MiAmigo and sadly for many anoraks Caroline simply limped along with break after break. That said land based pirates in London were on the rise. However I knew quite a few diehard anoraks who would quietly confess that they would tune over to John Peel on Radio 1 weekday evenings. It was almost like some kind of Catholic confession. The reality was his program was often a voyage of musical discovery for open minded music lovers and his ego was a lot smaller than those awful daytime DJ's.

The BBC News Gravy Train - Another Example

16/12/2024

The high minded hypocrites at BBC News continue to tell you what to think, whilst filling their boots with cash from all directions. Can you imagine if Huw Edwards had been a GBN presenter, the story would never have died (or been Hoovered away).

The very title BBC News is becoming a metaphor for BBC Propaganda or thought control. I have a new benchmark for their so called news stories. Any thing fact checked or verified by them is a beacon of light to go and find out for yourself and ignore their selected findings.

Do you remember the days when Panorama had teeth and D Notices had to be issued to stop reporting on sensitive subjects, or was it just Masonic networking, secret service cock-ups, and MP indiscretions. The teeth-less woke wonders today have made life a lot easier for all of the above, still better not upset the apple cart, when £100 grand for a few speeches after dinner are up for grabs eh?

Anoraking - Edition Four - Offshore & Onshore

21/10/2024

69 Comments

 
Some fascinating videos this time around (if you want to post them on the boards at least give us some credit or forever be a loser). Whats interesting in some of these is the perspective of the commentators and a few factual gems that demonstrate just how poorly researched so much about both sets of pirates has been in the past. In other words some decent research on some of these videos, and yes a few of the old easily discredited cliches about Ronan and the birth of Caroline.

Finally we have been a little tougher on comment moderation here for the past few weeks, just trying to filter out the angry brigade and keep things more on topic. I'd rather have no comments than the nasty stuff and visitor levels are holding up despite a slowing down on new features.

Anoraking - Edition Three - The Big L and SWE Connection.

13/10/2024

3 Comments

 
These two videos may well be familiar to many of you. However putting them together and focusing in particular on the segments and commentary regarding the setting up of both Radio London and Swinging Radio England in Florida, reinforces much that Mervyn Hagger has said about the origins of these two stations.

Having said that, should I now expect the usual Mike Wilson is Mervyn Hagger, or that I am his side kick nonsense from the usual suspects, or are we going to look at the subject matter? Or maybe the videos will just appear on the Joke Forums without a mention of this place.

Out of interest, has any Caroline fanatic ever considered that he or she might just be part of a manipulated cult? Just a thought, and no I personally do not hate the modern day version of Caroline, regardless of some of the comments left here, I just don't listen because it's not to my taste musically, so why would I listen?

I Spy For The DTI

2/10/2024

11 Comments

 
First it was the GPO, then it became the DTI and today we are blessed with OFCOM, whose masters the BBC, ITV, Sky & company, make sure the TV market is nice and cosy (hence the furor when GB News appeared to break rank) and of course its the Biased Boring Corporation and their partners in kind at Global & the other one, who ensure those naughty pirates are kept under scrutiny using of course, tax payers money.

In the time the DTI were harassing, raiding and spoiling tens if not hundreds of thousands of peoples enjoyment with those wonderful alternative land based pirates, that apparently stole or according to some of the hysteria kidnapped listeners (yet no ransom money was ever asked for), the DTI enjoyed the privilege of protecting people from their own free will.
