What Are You Listening to [regular edition]

I don't know what they Germans were saying when I went by. I went by them for an ice cream. They can only get me on my size. A five footer took their sunbed.

Kelly Rowlands & Amelia Lily - River Deep Mountain High

"Take it away Kelly."

I weighed less then. It was a few years ago. It was in apartments. They are the isolated ones. They only have themselves to talk to in their own language. Who else speaks German? Ich weiss es nicht.

I could go on ... I'm an ex Sociology Psychology student. I think it's all part of 2012. It's not like the Euro is on a solid footing. I've had the feeling for a while that it's time to pull up the drawbridge. We still have the internet. Isolation may be a good place to be at the moment. The BBC will try their best not to let it slip into Nationalism.

Watching something on the History of Jerusalem. I didn't think there was going to be a dig about Christianity but he slipped one in at the end. Studying the media is part of Sociology. It's about noticing the subtleties.

M83 - Beauties Can Die

Little Mix - You Got The Love

You are there as the Ambassador Sgt Fury. I live on the edge every day next to Hicksons.

Jodie is going to New York for Christmas. I'm taping the Buble Christmas Special. Everybody loves Buble.

Michael Buble - Come Home For Christmas

This is isolation ...

X Factor
Celebrity Big Brother
Big Brother
Dancing On Ice
I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here
Music festivals from April to September
Jools Holland

Other people have the sports channels. Double Celebrity Big Brother now.

X-Factor Finalists - Edge Of Glory

I wonder if they will all refuse to come to the Olympics seeing as we are isolated. We'll have to let the drawbridge down for that one. I'd rather let America have them.

Xtra Factor - Feed The World

The Reichstag dome is British.

You need a password now to get back in Sgt Fury.

Stopping now ...................

You may not want to read this at your German friend's house.

Switch it off quick.

It's just about flowers.

Marlene Dietrich - I Can't Help It

Everyone is cool here about all this financial nonsense and bad-mouthing. Seems to me that Josef Public isn't of the same opinion as the unfuckable fatass - fortunately ;-)

I have been known to remove houseguests towels from the radiator and replace them with mine, in keeping with tradition.

I was looking at some photos taken inside Hickson's the other day, like a mini flash mob with a camera invaded it. Looks like something from the Cold War. Eerie.

I hope Jodie has fun in New York, she's lucky. You have your Christmas Radio Times I take it ?

The Strokes - Stockholm Syndrome

I have but disappointed there is no Santa on the front. It's not the first time though.

Marlene Dietrich - Naughty Lola

What's 'chubby' in German?

Pummelig is most popular, although I prefer a straightforward 'rund' ;-)

What can possibly replace Santa ? It's not bloody Brucie is it ?

Toaster tried some Spanish lessons on me but I got lost somewhere along the way. He gave up. My Dutch gets better on a daily basis though. Useless language though

Oasis - Talk Tonight

Rund sounds more like me.

There was a choice of red or green border and a 1930s style Christmas tree. They are doing it because people are feeling ... what's the word ... austeric.

The Dutch don't have all the war films going against them.

Marlene Dietrich - Lili Marlene

I chose the red border. You could put your boiled sweets on wires and put them on the tree. That's what I do.

When East and West joined up and all the celebrations were going on my Grandad said while smoking his pipe ....

"Watch 'em now. They'll be off again."

I'm on to Shloss Charlottesberg. That's the last main area. They have statues of Victory all over the place. Trouble is they keep losing and having to rebuild Berlin. It's happened over and over again. They are only in a good position now because everybody else paid for them to be rebuilt.

Iggy & The Stooges - Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell

I hope to live a few years without Brucie in my life.

McFly lost all the credibility they gained by Harry McFly sucking up to Brucie. Even Dougie McFly said 'nice'. I watched the beginning to see who he was. Obviously gay.

The Smashing Pumpkins - Lily (My One And Only)

My sister in law worked in Hickson's laboratory. It turned her eyebrows green. I don't even like to walk by it.

Fear Factory - Linchpin

Midnight Metal Mania!

"No Naranja ... Narancccccccccccha"

"No favor ... fabor"

"No gracias ... graathhhias.

It went on like that. In the end somebody next to me asked if was Spanish. I had a complete fluent sentence.

Herman Cain 999 would be Nein Nein Nein in German. No No No.

Iggy & The Stooges - I Need Somebody

I wonder who the Republicans will choose. They are telling me now that Ron Paul is really Ron Pohl. He won't show his birth certificate either. Pohl Pot.

Jodie is flying by Kuwaiti airways. She wonders if there will be booze.

Last day in the library. I think I saved the oak staircase.

Muse - Supermassive Black Hole

Warm radiator ... what luxury. Mine are in the airing cupboard.

Austeric is a cross between austere and stoic.

Mudvayne - Dig

Kuwaiti airlines doesn't sound that great. She'll cope. She's been to Kirkgate Station. I think she'll be glad to sit down for 7 hours.

The Waitresses - Christmas Wrapping

The heating does come on. I can't stop it. It comes on with the water when it goes under 5 degrees. That's about two hours a day. The man servicing the boiler says it's cracked and I need a new one. Living on the edge again.

X Factor last day.

Little Mix - If I Ain't Got You

He says it's OK until the casing turns yellow. :S

Old British weather forecast ...

'Fog in the Channel. Continent isolated.'

All I Want For Christmas Is A Printing Press

Not sure I should have written that or not.

Which bit you may ask.

Westlife - Uptown Girl
