Joy Division Oven Gloves (Double Belt Version)

Product Information

The title "We Built This Village on a Trad. Arr. Tune" parodies that of the 1985 song " We Built This City" by Starship. None of this merch has anything to do with the band or the person who designed the cover, Peter Saville.

Fun puzzle today with some very nice clues, in what seems to be Marty’s first puzzle in almost exactly a year. Wow – brilliant. Has there ever been a more random/niche NINA (if this counts as one – I’m never 100% sure)?? Wow indeed, great catch Tim and Verlaine, and thanks a lot to Templar for the lyrics – it made listening to the (rather good) song all the better. Half the puzzle in there is right: a superb effort from Marty.

The A to Z of HMHB

I appreciate it may have taken some work on the setter’s behalf, and I applaud it, but surely that teacher one can’t count as a NINA?! I know of both bands, but as the few songs that I’d heard by Joy Division were anything but joyful, I gave them a miss thereafter. Based on the above lyrics, Half Man Half Biscuit sound much more fun – perhaps it’s time to take a listen!

Asparagus Next Left" is the sort of sign that can be seen on British country roads advertising farm products for sale at the farm gate. it would be lovely to be able to relive the days! Oh well, Dark Star Orchestra at Shepherds Bush Empire a couple of nights ago was a recent wonder. People are dressing up. One guy is King of Hi-Vis, a song they’ve only played five times – and he was there at them all I have never heard of joy meaning transport, but it was obvious what the answer was from the clue wording “first of all”. Depressed Beyond Tablets" is from a line in the "Crime" episode of Chris Morris's controversial TV comedy Brass Eye.Yes, but not quite so random perhaps because the editor is also known to set as Felix, Des, Oran, Marty, Kenny and Rodney, all first names of Coleraine FC managers. And as Alconiere which is an anagram of the club’s name. The teacher puzzle was a theme nobody stood a chance of spotting and we only know about it because the editor later owned up to it. Should’ve proof read!! 7:17 but with STARTE, even though I parsed it correctly. Grrhh! FOI, JOY, LOI LOFT, into which the men will shortly be installing the inverter and batteries for my solar panels. Thanks Marty and Roly. The important thing is that a lot of people are getting very passionate about saving 6 Music," Shade said. "I hope it will help make the BBC see sense. It is too important a station to lose. With expanding digital radio coverage I think they will attract a much larger audience to the station if only they give it a chance."
