Well, in the song Tracy Jacks jumps into the sea and runs around naked before being escorted home by the police. It is unspecified as to whether the coast guard had a hand in his rescue/capture but perhaps the song would end differently if they were on strike.

I set my clock radio to 5 past the hour, so the news is over and you don't get woken up by being told someone's died or whatever. Head in the sand, that's me!

No way man! Backweh with your "ooh we couldn't even bury our dead" bizness!

Frontline staff aren't striking, so the noble coast-guarders )Our 4th Emergency Service"!!!!) would still have resuced oor Tracy from King Neptune's clutches.

C'mon, even Steve Ignorant of Crass understands their value, his recent reunion/tribute/karaoke gigs were partly a benefit for them. But clearly he donated them a load of vegan mung beans or Crass records instead of money cos they are still being paid peanuts!

Did the news that the coastguard were striking upset you so much you've had to have a pint of gin?

Neptune's clutches?

I woke up in a cunt of a mood today, and the last thing I needed was to come on here and read STN being all chipper and Eden's cod patois. So I'm going on a 24-hour Dissensus strike. I hate you all.

Were you woken up by 'Welcome to the Cheap Seats' by the Wonder Stuff? That would make me angry enough to stab my mum.

I'm glad they are working collectively to improve their lot.

Martin - go away and read the Warrior Queen thread, that is more suitable for your mood.

this made me laugh. in a chipper sort of way. just to antagonise you more.

i woke up to an awful hyphy cd i bought in the states.. it's so poor that i am forced to jump out of bed to turn it off.

on another note, is blur's 'parklife' the most dated album of the 90s?

I woke up feeling fucking awesome but after reading above that the Wonder Stuff still even get played on the radio is enough to make me vomit machine guns.

Goddamn the fucking wonder stuff. GODDAMN!!!!

I don't think they do, I was quoting an example from many years ago.

Pet Shop Boys were always better at this kind of thing. Satirical social commentary, feeling part of the regular everyday wash but still slightly removed from it, etc...
