That was probably the solution - should have shot 'em into space before they could inflict any more pain on the world... ;) ;D

This is sacrilege, you're slating possibly the greatest and most influential rock band in history!  Not to mention the greatest frontman who's ever lived!   m/

There are dozens of bands who cite Queen as their inspriation.  Even the biggest selling artist in the world right now (as much as I hate her) is a Queen fan, hence Lady Gaga...

You're not, by any chance, foreign are you?

What sort of name is 'Nik'.  'Nick' is what you want. Beautiful British name.  Your name doesn't follow the rules.  And you know where we'd be if we didn't have rules? France, that's where.  Can't have too many rules, though. Where would we be if we had too many?  Germany.

He's probably sitting there with a bloody Gaulloise hanging off his lip, drinking wine.  I ask you, what sort of drink for a bloke is wine.  Pint for the gents, wine or fruit based dink for the ladies. Them's the rules.  Like listening to Queen.

It is possible Pobolycwm and Ni(c)k (if that IS your name) need their ears syringed.

;D I don't think you'll find that 'Nick' [from 'Nicholas'] is a particularly British name y'know...and I was born in Chelsea, love Gauloise [although don't smoke anymore] and do love wine - which, if you read your history, is completely a bloke's drink. After all, it is stronger than beer  ;)

And I really don't think that Freddie Mercury would qualify as a "bloke's bloke". Oh. Hang on... :d
