One of the great events of the year, I along with many others on here absolutely adore the World Championships and it all kicks off this Saturday.

Simply Red were absolutely HUGE? Probably the biggest band in Britain in 1995, one of the few artists to have a simultaneous number one album and single with the EPIC Fairground. I think at that point it was estimated one in every 3.6 UK households owned a Simply Red LP, astonishing.

Another of the great days of the year where social media is jammed full of pictures of every more impressive costumes for the little ones to celebrate World Book Day, always a joy to see the thrill of this special day for children and adults alike, but what is NSCs favourite book 2024?

I do hope I'm very much wrong but it does appear there is some momentum building that one way or another RDZ will be departing at the end of the season. IF that was to happen who would you want to replace him??
I know from previous threads on NSC and conversations with members there is a huge army of Michael Bolton fans out there. He is also alongside David Essex and Rod Hull one of the greatest place based celebrities, but where does he rank amongst the great American singer songwriters?

Aussie Open Tennis (for me the best grand slam)
The Clarence House
World Darts Finale
World Bowls
Masters Snooker
Ping Pong World Championship
Golden Globes
Oscar's build up
Gary Wilmotts...
