Showaddywaddy


In light of recent events I thought it might be good to have a new theme tune for North Lanarkshire Council - a topical tune to inspire the workforce - as people begin another day of honest toil.

What jumped into myhead was 'Three Steps to Heaven' - so here are the words to the song - which are banal, silly and unbelievable - I have to say.

But then again the same thing might be said about other decision-making processes within the council - such as the one to pay big bonuses to only the most senior staff.

I've included a You Tube link to the song as well - the original version was by Eddie Cochran although this one is from the 1970s 'glam rock' group - Showaddywaddy. 

Enjoy.

Three Steps to Heaven

Now there are three steps to heaven
Just listen and you will plainly see.
And as I travel on and things do go wrong

Just call it steps one
two and three

Step one
to find a girl to love

Step two
she falls in love with you

Step three
you kiss and hold her tightly.

Yeh ! That shure seems like heaven to me.

The formula for heaven's very simple
Just follow the rules and you will see.

And as I travel on and things do go wrong
Just call it steps one
two and three.

Step one
to find a girl to love
 . . .

Just call it steps one
two and three.

The River Cottage chef has a some imaginative ideas for adding seagulls to the national diet - including a recipe for Kentucky Fried Seagull - would you believe. Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn't... P
