Abstract moment of the week

Have been chuckling to myself since finding that my mother-in-law, who will be 81 next month, had filled in a crossword puzzle with the solution M  O  T  O  R  H  E  A  D.  The clue was simply 'Lemmy's rock band'.   It's just the fact that she knew it...



Gotta love Motorhead...

  1. Brilliant! Although come to think of it, she would've only been a mere 44 year-old spring chicken when Lemmy started the band, so who knows, perhaps she's been a secret admirer of his oeuvre all along!

  2. I love this! Good old Mum-in-law. Mind you, she's only a couple of years younger than Lemmy, so it sort of makes sense. Rock on!

  5. Yep, we all like Motorhead, don't we?
    And v rock'n'roll, OPC!
    Mr SDS and I spotted him from across the road once on a quiet London back street, and without hesitation we both waved, thinking "I know that bloke from somewhere..." before it hit us who he was. He waved, grinned and shouted a big "Hello!" back. I suppose he's used to it but it made us happy!

    Motorhead, remember me now, Motorhead, alright...

    :-D
