Just had to say...........................

Hi there,

I have decided for the first time in my life to join a forum - I'm 41 and feel a little silly but here goes!!

My husband bought me the New Order Collection DVD for Christmas and what a revelation. I always liked New Order but only really knew the most popular songs such as Blue Monday, Bizarre Love Triangle, World in Motion and True Faith.

I put the DVD on and now I am totally hooked (no pun intended). I had never heard, let alone seen many of their fabulous songs. I just love the Perfect Kiss, Regret, the hilarious Touched by the hand of God, World, Here to Stay etc.

To think I missed out on all these years but at least I have discovered them now. My 17 year old daughter is also hooked.

And girls, how gorgeous is Barney??

Anyway, look forward to some interesting discussions in the future as I am unable to talk New Order amongst my friends - some of them don't even know who they are!!

Cheers, Dette

welcome to the madhouse!!

Hi Fay.

Lazy bastard, thought you footie fans were a committed bunch, it's only a 17hour flight man ;)

p.s: are you a Crow or a Port girl. i'm a West Coast Eagle. haha

Not free at all really....cost you a pint if I'm ever in Adelaide (unlikely, the only reason I'd go there has moved to Melbourne ;) ). There's a bit of Belfast mysteriously called Adelaide too.

Everyone hates Collingwood............. You'll be interested to know that Eddiewood has just become the CEO of channel nine. I think that means we don't have to put up with him on The Footy Show and Millionaire anymore - thank Christ for that!!

Hi Missy Jem,

Pink things and cock or toos!!

Fay, you ought to get in touch with solitude, a bit of a regular here. he is currently lost somewhere in Adelaide. He'll be able to supply you with New Order stuff you never even imagined.

And it's all down hill from here ;)

yeah seen that on age.com.au. Eddie's taking over the country by the looks. next stop Bali. footy show is funny. went back to aus two years ago for a hol (i.e October, before the fly season spiralled out of control) and seen the footy show. Is Trevor Marmalade still on it? he was a boss laff on that.

Think a lot of us here have got a bit tired of the buffoons on the footy show. Marmalade is still on it but the show has been on for a few years now and is getting a bit tired. What sort of lingo is "boss laff"?

Guess that must mean I'm a twat too

Nah...that'll take about 100 posts ;)

Hi fay, welcome.

I lived in Adelaide for the whole of 2000. Was doing some scientific study in the SA desert.

Very cool place. I lived in an area called Birkenhead, with my work colleagues.

Travelled to watch Richmond in the footy however. never made it to crows or port.

new order always hits the spot, especially after a bottle of SA red wine.

thanks for the brackets.

Fay leave now or you never will. Cambo here for example has been known to do 24 hour non-stop nooling sessions.

a-nooling and a-drooling on the internet-o

Hi Royser,

Long way to come for a scientific study - interesting though.

Yeah, I know Birkenhead near the Port. Glad you liked Adelaide. I also love a good South Aussie red - particularly sparkling burgundy. I was pissed off when in Leicester a couple of years ago - couldn't get the sparkling red there. The guys here call it a good leg opener - but that's another story!!

Are you likely to ever come back?

I got paid good money for the research and in pounds sterling which meant my beer tokens went 3 times as far I want to return one day as I never got round to going out on a boat looking for great-whites. I was due to do it one day but got a lock-in in an aboriginie cafe and was too hungover for anything the next day. My work has placements in Perth these days so it have to be on vacation rather than working next time.

Nobody I know likes NO, but over the years I've got use to people not knowing what I'm talking about it's quite normal for me. When you've acquired all NO cd's, then buy some of the JD ones.

Bit late to this thread (Johnny come lately:( )but welcome ,Fay.

As already said it is nice to see a cute innocent post from a newbie. Give it a few days and you'll soon be talking in codes and riddles.

posted twice

welcome aboard the good ship nool. now nip on down to the barrosa valley and pick us up a few crates of s.a. finest will yer. the cheques in the post (honest).

Hello.:)
