Hi fellow blues My brother rammyblues passed away today in Salford Royal. He was suffering from cancer and unfortunately this brutal disease has claimed another persons life. He was a life long blue and I will miss him tremendously. I cannot express the sadness that I feel in his passing...

Hi Fellow Blues I have just had my first course of Chemo a drug called "Follfox" which is a combination of three separate drugs. My treatment plan is a course of Chemo every two weeks for 6 months. I have cancer of the large colon and of the Esophagus. I've recovered from the op to remove...

Hotel and train tickets booked, any other old or even young heavy rockers on bluemoon going to this gig, his only UK date where he will play all the old Rainbow and Deep Purple classics. I can't wait, 1983 the last time I saw him live. Sensational rock guitarist and the best ever imo.

This Bowie subject has cropped up from time to time for discussion on here, both in Bowie threads and one about Jeff Beck. Well I've recently found out that Robin Mayhew the sound engineer for Bowie for all the "Ziggy Shows" recorded this show in it's entirity and has it for sale on his...

I wondered if any other bluemooners are into this heavy metal band, which formed in the mid to late 70's, in Birmingham. I love em. I've just had 4 albums bought for me on cd for the first time: Ram It down Painkiller Angel of Retribution Nostradamus What can I say other than blown away...

Rammyblues last night suffered a severe heart attack and is now stable but very poorly in intensive care. The next 48 hours will be critical and I hope and prey that my brother can get through this. I know he enjoys discussing all things City with many friends and family on here as he is exiled...

As I'm diabetic and I went to see the nurse yesterday she advised me to have it as there are three particularly nasty strains of flu which will be floating about later this year. So I agreed and was duly jabbed and boy I don't feel at all well today, anyone else struggling with this years jab?

Just been diagnosed with this condition "Type 2". Put on medication by the Doc "Metformin" once a day for a week, then twice a day for a week, and in the third week three times a day. I just wondered if any bluemooners are in this club that I joined last Monday, and how it has affected your...

I'm off to Cheltnam with Mrs Ed in a few weeks time, never been there before in my life. I wondered if there are any blues who may be familiar with this neck of the woods that could recommend some decent pubs and decent affordable restaurants Italian/Chinese/Indian. Many thanks if you can...

Well do you or don't you. I dunk both biscuits and toast. I love it when a digestive biscuit falls into your brew and you get it right at the end. Dunked toast is lovely and I love the butter that you get on top of the brew because of said dunking.

After being taken back down memory lane on a thread in the main forum. I got to thinking that 1977 was a very enjoyable and successful year for me. I had a decent job with a good pension (which I am now getting the fruits of) I was single, no responsibilities, I never had money issues. I...

I went to watch my lad's band play in the local pub last Sunday (bank holiday weekend), the weather was lovely so all the doors/windows were open. So muggings here is stood at the bar awaiting getting served when a Horse fly went up the sleeve of my T shirt stung me 6 times before doing one...

What an eye opener that was. Four years after the end of WW2 with obviously loads of ex-soldiers incapacitated due to the effects of war, we see the formation of the Welfare State in the UK. So fast forward to 2013 and 3 people with differing circumstances agree to appear and be judged under...

Ok this old chestnut once again. I think the only time I ever got into an argument on bluemoon came about because of this subject. So inviting friendly discussion with arguments for and against I suggest that this 40 minute documentary will if you are an unbeliever like me, it will cement...

After everything that has happened this week football wise I have a serious headache at the moment. However I went to a black tie function tonight and I was informed one of the lads has bought me a ticket to see Sabbath later in the year at the MEN Arena, with hotel accommodation for £87. I...

I've just had a call from my lad who's 27 that he hasn't been made redundant today. This had been hanging over him for the past three weeks or more. A huge sigh of relief in our household as he has a baby only a few weeks old. I now feel dreadfully sorry for those that were not so lucky...

This is for people probably of a certain age. I just wondered if you used to buy them, and if you did whats your favourite. My brother was at Uni in Liverpool in the very early to mid 70's and he introduced me to this world of "under the counter" recordings. My favourite is a single LP...

I just wondered if any guys or lasses on here have had a hip replacement and how it's gone. I've been asked to trial the new "Tribofit Hip Replacement" has anyone else had this? Are there any medical folks on here that can give some info? I see the specialist in two weeks time to choose the...

Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, but I just wanted to give the heads up on this to everyone as I came across it by accident myself. Tonight 6pm (UK) Eurosport channel will show Manchester City v Juventus in a group game for the Next Gen youth series. Thats my wednesday night TV...
