Ginger Rogers played the drums? Who knew?


One of my boyhood heroes, Jack Bruce, died yesterday. He was the bass guitarist, singer and song-writer with Cream, the band that made me really appreciate music. I never knew, though, that Ginger Rogers was not only a brilliant dancer ... but also played drums alongside Bruce and Eric Clapton. Thanks to The Independent for enlightening me on that and to @eshelm for flagging it up.

Couple of captions that caught the eye

Here's a couple of captions that caught the eye this week. The one above from my old friends at the Newark Advertiser is an excellent example of why subs need dirty minds - and good taste. Thanks to ‏@EdGrover for that one.



And this one from my other old friends at The Northern Echo, reporting on the delays to the badger cull, made me smile too ... albeit for different reasons. Hat tip to @johnestevens.
