Tuesday

Put your hands together for the Dunfermline Elvis/27th April 2010.

Richie - Out canvassing in the locality today I was talking to honest hard working families in support of Labour and guess what - Elvis proved to be a real ice-breaker on the doorsteps! I've been serenaded by little old ladies and kids and rock n rollin' dads, all eager to give Calamity Cameron the scrutiny he deserves through the music of The King. Among today's favourites were: "Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain" (the Turnips upset at losing a 20-point lead and counting!), "There Goes My Everything" (odds on if Dipstick Osbourne becomes chancellor!) and "Your Cheatin' Heart" (memories of odious Tory governments past I think!). The only blemish was when a knuckle-dragging BNP supporter in full regalia began to sing "Deutschland Uber Alles". Mrs Bob No 3, thinking it was one of Elvis' lesser-known songs, gave him a round of applause before I dragged her away pronto and told her "A Little Less Conversation" and more "Jailhouse Rock" was needed where the Nazis are concerned! Mad here innit!
