What did the kids write about Glyncoch??

 

[Cyrano]

Great creativity

 

[Sapper383]

They wanted to write about buying drugs and getting stabbed......luckly I managed to get them to focus on some of the positives......yes there are some

I saw this on GMTV this morning - very funny!!

When we were at uni "Is this the way to Amarillo" was popular and they did a "Is this the way to Aberystwyth" version, which of course everyone in Aber loved! It reminds of that but better!

Also Wayne - I think it was Alicia Keys

Oops it was, my mistake, taken almost 6 hours for someone to tell me I knew exactly who it was been talking to burt by PM about her, no idea why I put Dixon.

Hope that didn't come across as pedantic Wayne. I didn't notice at first and then got confused between the two and had to look it up!

I think its because we're more used to hearing/saying Alisha Dixon as she's been mentioned a lot the last little while.

I'm not sure how flattered Alicia Keys would be if she thought I had her confused with an ex-pop/reality TV star, I get the impression she thinks she's a bit of an artiste.

Hope that didn't come across as pedantic Wayne.

Not at all, I knew who I meant, I just posted the wrong name. I doubt she reads this forum so I am OK.

 

[mandymouse]

I saw this on the TV yesterday too, and I thought it was brilliant, I hope they release it

 

[Kevin Stringer]

Thanks for the link Wayne, I was cracking up! Better than the original I reckon.

[Cinderella2006]

I absolutely love it and the song represents Newport so well! I like to see myself as a Caerleon Girl but its the same borough! Oh the Newport twang still annoys me now
