I'd rather pass a kidney stone.

One afternoon in The Cairngorms taught me that after 'chippy tea' they're one a one trick pony but with fleas, open sores and liver disease.

We went to watch Huntly v Keith at Christie Park and the Magic Bus took over seven hours to get there. On the way back on a glorious day we went via the snowy Cairngorms. Freez organises the music and usually plays an eclectic and highly entertaining mix of music including comedy stuff. The one that got everyone singing was There Was A Mouse. However near Aviemore he started playing a whole Lancashire Hotpots CD. An hour later people a sleepy bus of hangovers, Screws readers and snoozers were near suicidal and in open rebellion. People were pretending to hang themselves with Morecambe scarves. Shrimper was apoplectic to the extent that if the Hotpots were in the bus it would have been like putting a tiger next to them. Their only trick is they're Lancastrians with accents, 'ee int it rest grand' but bar the odd moment they are incredibly unfunny. At least the Wurzels did a few stomping tunes. Every local dialect act I've ever heard has been awful. Yet for some reason the have a following of locals whose mentality is 'they talk like me, aren't they great'. Awful, awful, awful and the mighty beauty and the majesty of the Caingorms will never be the same again.

Why write an essay just to say " I don't like that" ? all forms of art are subjective.

I got to say, I'll be there on Friday, I've seen them about 5-6 times and each time I've loved them! I guess they're a bit of a marmite band! When on stage the banter is pretty good and their cover of RATMs 'Killing in the name of' had me in stitches in Preston at Christmas.

Granted, their material follows a fairly simple formula and they'll never win a Mercury Music Prize, but if you take them for what they are and are looking for a bit of light hearted entertainment, I dont think you'll find anything better locally.

I don't hate anyone, I just generally disagree with the gospel according to St Michael and he doesn't appreciate my abruptness :D we have history by the way, if only he'd accepted my peace offering of a pint in Farnborough 10 years ago none of this would be happening and who knows we could even have been tolerant of eachother by now ;)

Hilarious. I don't hate Neil, I love Neil. This board wouldn't be the same without him. He says he disagrees with me but he doesn't know how to disagree. As a result we have a lovers' tiff once a year, then it's back to hugs and moistness.

In this particular case, I gave an impassioned story to illustrate why I'm no fan of the Hotbotters. It was obviously speckled with a bit of story-telling and the truth is I quite like 'chippy tea' and without a hangover it may all have been different (although I very much doubt it).

Yet in return I get a reply from Neil that can be condensed to say, 'you've written too much, why do you have to write so much, now shut up'. This is then followed up by the immortal line 'art is subjective'. Bugger me I thought everyone loved the works of Tracey Emin!!! (NB: Neil was that patronising enough?). OK leaving alone the debate that the Lancashire Hottrots are art, so is so much else subjective - politics, economics, philosophy, religion and of course the main religion - football. That's why there are messageboards for all these subjects and why people post lengthy impassioned viewpoints.

For example, others would make the case for the Lancashire Hotcocks by quoting excellent reviews in the Oswaldtwistle Messenger and quote the beauty of their lyrics. That would be obviously tackle the debate in hand but would involve a lot of writing. On the other hand there is Neil G, who say that an issue is subjective, 'so stop writing lots of stuff and shut up'. You've got to love him for that.

Or in the immortal words of the Lancashire Hotrocks

In this Lancashire Town
This Lancashire Town
We both held hands
Outside Matalan's
I tucked in me vest
Outside the old Nat West
I needed company
So I snogged big Neil G

Has anyone else attempted to swat the screen before they realised it was just Posh's avatar? It took me a good minute or two, I thought somehow a bug had got in behind my LCD so I was pressing it attempting to squash the thing...
