Bloody Sunday,the truth???

[The Shadow]

Cant go wrong with a vist to Cardiff.Loads of stuff to do + see.Cardiff Castle,milleium stadium loads of good pubs.

Lots of gigs on through out the year.


Cardiff Bay is also great when the weather is nice.


Have fun.

Cheers, mate. Thanks for the info - Cardiff was definitely on the tentative agenda and has now been moved to a must see. Also have a couple of buddies down in Plymouth that I want to visit before I get sucked into family obligations. Almost caught Chick Corea at Ronnie Scott's last year, but the idiot I have for a cousin drank herself into oblivion the night prior to the show and I took off from London and headed to Aldershot (sp?) to see my Aunt and other family. Can't keep up with piss-heads on a vacation as you tend to fall into a spell of complacency and lose your ambition. :P
Nevertheless, interesting thread, and it's always good to find a like-minded poster who is civil and inquisitive. Thanks for that, Porky. Enjoy your weekend, and if you come across any interesting reads related to this topic, please send the information off to me. As my Father is very prone to say: "There are 3 sides to every story, opposing views on their respective ends of the pole, and the truth waiting to be discovered somewhere in between both polarities" I found that hard to accept for a while, but now I'm convinced that it's an accurate axiom. With age comes the indispensable attribute of wisdom, which is a blessing in itself.

Any info and I will pass it on.I have heared "From guns to government" is a good read and covers bloody sunday.

I was baced in Aldershot,bit of a shit hole but never mind.

Yeah, Aldershot is a bit of a shithole. LOL But it's abundantly better than staying up in Canary Wharf with a neurotic binge drinker. Plus, my Aunt is starting to get up in years and the mold was broken after her - they don't come any better. I'll look into that read that you mentioned as I never heard of it. If I come across anything else I'll be sure to pass it your way. CC

U2 LYRICS

"Sunday Bloody Sunday"

Yes...

I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes
And make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

How long...
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...tonight...

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Oh, wipe your blood shot eyes
(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On...

Sunday Bloody Sunday
Sunday Bloody Sunday...

A quality song but awful lyrics!! Dreadful!
