The Stepping Stones - The Saga Continues
Yesterday while out on Biscuits walk someone we know said that he had been told that the stepping stones have been removed on Friday, we had just passed the fenced off stepping stones a quick detour, the barriers had not been moved and there was no sign of any machinery use on the banks, the stepping stones were still in place though underwater, Biscuit took the opportunity to have another dip in the river, I think the rumour was started by the same person who was telling people earlier in the year that Biscuit was dead.
While I was editing this post I thought of Julian Rose - The Rumour, I can find no evidence of this this t track being issued as a single, it is not on 45cat, I first came across the track on one of the 'Twisted Tales From The Vinyl Wastelands' CD;s, it has also appeared on 'Grooving With The Grim Reaper'

Margaret Roadknight - The Girls In Our Town (The Other Newcastle Song)
An Australian release from September 1975, I came across the track on a recent download, while listening to the record I thought this could apply to almost any town, in the UK I was in the last year that you could leave school at 15 (1967), the children in the year following all most of them wanted to do was leave school, from the school I attended well over half the pupils left at 15 with no qualifications, after the leaving age was raised to16 it was still the same well over half still left with no qualifications, most of the others left with qualifications and a very few went on to further education, the ones who left without qualifications ended up in the local factories or as shop assistants.
