Introducing The Zimmers…

There’s something worthy but slightly disturbing about this… A group of OAPs, lead by a nonagenarian, assaulting the pop charts to make the point that they, too, are people whose existence and emotions should not be forgotten.

You can pre-order the single at sjhoward.co.uk/shop: It’s released on Monday – the same day as we’re all to be subjected to “A Song for Madeleine”, at 8am, on all commercial radio stations. I’m sure that’ll help.

Old people rock!! (when you’re not trying to take a history)

I have to say I was shocked when I was sitting with my 75yo Grandma and some of her friends and they got chatting…. their humour may be more subtle than the stuff I’m used to (doesn’t take much I suppose), but I wasn’t far off blushing! And they go out more times a week than most students! Rock on Granny Dot, lol!!
