The mines rescue course consists of first aid and rescuing people from very tight situations. So off we go to the rescue centre where they have a series of underground tunnels and pipes etc to negotiate with a stretcher and a dummy. Its a nightmare!!! but whilst walking through the shafts dressed like a miner, stooped over and back on fire with pain , i found myself singing "down in the sewer" It got me through it ok and took my mind off the pain. Dont know what i`ll sing next year when i do it because they said we`ll do the same thing, but might set fire to the shafts this time :? :? :? ...............Any ideas? :(
the best idea i come up with is find a new job! :lol:

Out of my arse, in Largs on Saturday night.
At least it sounds like that on my camera :oops:

Too long a story to bore you with, but me and a mate sang No More Heroes in Red Square, Moscow (Aug 1982). The locals were rather bemused. :smile:

Off the coast of Sardegna...
I sang the entirety of Black And White while stranded alone in a boat in the Mediterranean.

A fair distance out to sea, my engine had suddenly packed up - but I had a pair of oars - so I fought my way back to land and managed to counteract the opposing current dragging me back out to sea. My arm and shoulder muscles went into spasm (arms like jelly!) I was so fucked - I was burnt too (I still have the scars on my shoulders) ... but my salvo that kept my brain doing what I had to do (before the pirates got me!) was singing B+W. My favourite album.
