    This thread moves so fast, I struggle to keep up, but everybody knows that. Nobody scared off my pal viva the other day, she just found it difficult to jump on and off again at high speed.:D

    We do move at high speed. I personally thrive on jumping on and off without skinning my knees :D but can see why it might be scary to some.
    You are a constant tnough and more than me are grateful of it :kisses3:

    Just spent one and a half hours revising a Wikipedia entry for one of our popular music artists of the past:eek::rotfl:. That's what happens when you tune into the radio, happen to hear an old chart rundown, including the low Top 40, then think "Oh I wonder whether the hit is recorded in the discography for this artist on Wikipedia", then find out that it has a "did not chart" indication for the UK chart against the song you've just heard, when clearly it did chart. Then you find out the Wikipedia discography is missing about four or five other chart positions for the UK and six or seven other songs that charted that it doesn't even mention. I've just had to find the album titles that those singles were from, as the albums are mentioned in the Wikipedia list, so - an artist whose music I have no vast knowledge of, since I wasn't born then, and having to search round the Internet to try to find the names of obscure albums that the songs came from and finding some songs come from different albums in different territories and others were on albums only released retrospectively, so how do you reflect those in the list? As well as the charting order of the US and UK not always running in the same order!(:laugh:)

    Then I find the missing comma:eek: in the title of one single in the British Hit Singles:rotfl::rotfl:. It's not like they publish this anymore and therefore no way of writing in to get it corrected for the 'next version', so my copy of the British Hit Singles, that I've had for years, turns out to have an error in it:eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl:.

    Anyway, nice to know you again, to pop in - and goodnight!:D:wave::wave: (Need it, after all of that.) I certainly shan't be tuning into the radio Top 40 again in a hurry.:rotfl::wave::wave:

    I wouldn't hang around too long in wikipedia. It has too many dodgy editors.

    Anyhoo
