That's no problem. It's never too late to vote and you can always send in a postal vote if you're unable to be here in person.  I just need to keep the tallies updated, that's all. Smile

Maybe you'll find it easier to choose in the albums polls with the same list of artists. Smile
 
The jolly green Gentle Giant will be along in Part Four, after Genesis & Greenslade in Parts Two & Three. Smile

Yes but do you have to post a video for each comment - it just slows down the loading of the page.
Okay, no problem. I've deleted the video. I'm not a big fan of Howard Jones anyway. Smile

This topic has reached new heights of "off-topic-ness." Smile
I guess I'm to blame - it started off when I queried the Britishness of Fruupp. I do feel it was valid as we needed to establish whether we were talking Great Britain or the British Isles. This is an important point. Things did veer off a bit after that.Tongue
