...to like the Thompson Twins?

[Tank]

Musically or sexually?

[eelracing]

S'pose it depends if you were into all that 80's crap.
Me...i'm still trying to forget it.
There was some good sounds around,but not in the top 40's.

Hold me now, Dave.

[Swoop]

Absolutely







not.
Where is the poll?

[Big Dave]

Musically or sexually?

Valid question. Definitely musically.

I'm concurrently working, dribbling online and have music TV tuned in.

I became aware of pedal activity in time to 'Hold me now' in the background.

The last time I did anything uncool was 1974, so i think it must be OK. Best to ask a local.

[riffer]

Yes. You're sick.

[Big Dave]

I think its time for you to get out for a big long ride.........

Cool - because actually I'm about to go on an (another) amazing ride.

So excitement.

[mattian]

Stay away from that shit bro...... first its the Thompson twins, before you know it you've moved onto the harder stuff like the Pet Shop boys.

[Big Dave]

Of course that is the correct answer.

Lock that in.

They was named after twin characters in a comic from ages ago, "Beano", or "Dandy", which ever had the Bash Street kids...:wacko:

[hospitalfood]

...to like the Thompson Twins?

it is wrong to even ask.............
if i gave bad rep i would do it now.

i dont believe you are not sure if it is wrong, because you can read and write.

[Hitcher]

The Adventures of Tintin.

[Virago]

They was named after twin characters in a comic from ages ago, "Beano", or "Dandy", which ever had the Bash Street kids...:wacko:

The Adventures of Tintin. They were a couple of bumbling bowler-hat-wearing coppers from memory.

[fliplid]

you mean that they were Belgian??:wacko:

[Big Dave]

The Thompson Twins were Belgian! - get out.

[fliplid]

Shamelessly pinched from Wiki...
"Thomson and Thompson (Dupont et Dupond) are two bumbling detectives who, although unrelated,[21] look like twins with the only discernible difference being the shape of their moustaches.[22] They provide much of the comic relief throughout the series, being afflicted with chronic spoonerism, and are shown to be mostly incompetent in their tasks. The detectives were in part based on Hergé's father and uncle, identical twins who wore matching bowler hats."

[rainman]

The Adventures of Tintin.

My kids have been reading these again, and I passed some time recently revisiting my youf and read "Tintin Colonises the Congo" or some such.

Gawd they're a bit dated. All shooting elephants for ivory and getting a "boy" to carry the luggage and stuff. They stopped short of piccaninnies but only just.

How far we have come.

[rainman]

And nothing wrong with the 80s or the Thompson Twits. What did Dragon do other than April Sun in Cuba?


Waits for howls of outrage directed at uneducated immigrants.....

[MadDuck]

Is it as bad as liking the Top Twins???

........yes

[Manxman]

Musically or sexually?
:clap: zactly the first thought that popped into my head!

Musically, yep.

The Thompson Twins were the two bumbling British secret service agents from the TinTin comics.

Edit: oops already stated in prev threads.

[oldguy]

...to like the Thompson Twins?

F**K No, I still got the CD here a scanned copy, of disc and album cover.

For all you young ones out there, that round thing is known as a Compact Disc,
know most of you would not have seen one before, you all have these new fang_dang_gall things called U_Pods and MP7 or what ever you call them.

[oldguy]

Why thank you. It's just a gag.

They sold millions and TV is still playing the Thomson Twins music 30 years after their heyday - I would aspire so.

[Ms Piggy]

...to like the Thompson Twins?

As a child of the 80's (no I wasn't born then, I was in my youthful prime) in my opinion it is not wrong "to like the Thompson Twins". Ahhhh the memories!

Including (I might brag) Alannah Currie phoned my house in Dunedin to speak to my Aunty (I was about 10 at the time and completely wowed!).

[tri boy]

What did Dragon do other than April Sun in Cuba?

A heap of quality Sydney class A drugs, and a lower class of Sydney slappers.
