It’s a tuff crowd out there Paul! Good thing you’re “tuffer”!!
Can’t help myself…..jumping on the ‘nit-pick’ bandwagon…..Quentino?
But seriously Paul S, thanks for an awesome, informative site. *thumbs up*
(and if it makes you feel better, I’ll probably get nit-picked for hyphenating nit-pick)
I’ve given the gremlins the day off tomorrow.
Do not expose them to sunlight, do not let them get wet and do not feed them after midnight. ; )
21th album? Try 12th album! A master musician.
the one and two swapped places without permission.
Oh! Can I nitpick too? “The Scottish folk musician’s 21th album” – 21th??
Really just looking for an excuse for thanking? you for the site. You regularly empty my wallet.
Don’t want to nitpick, but the legendary Mr Goldsmith’s first name is Jerry, not Gerry. Now you know it. ;o)
Thanks. Corrected.
If we’re all nitpicking can I add that it still says ‘Gerry’? Haha.
No more nitpicking! :)
