I'm justifying the posting of this here because every time we ask for song requests for any Dreamland event everyone's favourite rockney duo come out on top by a very long way.

News of the split announced today:

How the Telegraph has the front to compare them Oasis I don't know. I know who I'd rather share a pint with.

Reminds me of seeing them at the Winter Gardens more years ago than I care to remember. Happy days.

1st post by the way! Hello everyone.

Dunno if anyone on these boards remember the early 80s' Top 40 singles' chart?

..It was full of "segued" hit singles like "Stars on 45" "Classics on 45" Abba on "45" etc etc....

Chas 'n' Dave brought out "Stars over 45"

I know..I know..you had to be there but it was funny at the time.

Do,do,do,do do,do,do,do,do do,do

No I don't remember those records

I wasn't DJing back then! (Oh yes he was!)

Vince.
(We can work it out, remember Twist and Shout!)

Welcome Tubbystar, glad to have to on board.

I too saw them at the Winter Gardens and yes it was a long time ago

Thinking back, must have been 86/87 or thereabouts.

I couldn't possibly admit to it being that long ago when I saw them but they have been since.

I had tickets to see them again but a family crisis prevented us traveling to Margate and the tickets had to be returned

Sad news indeed, however I feel that we might be able to persuade them to reform, albeit on a temporary basis, to help us relaunch the new Dreamland Park in a couple of years or so (hopefully!)

I was personally never a huge fan of the duo but felt their "Margate" tune was synominous with the resort, especially after the Only Fools and Horses TV outing.

Martin :D

I have been playing Ain't no pleasing you as a tribute at my last few discos!
