Dusty Springfield was another great singer from the sixties. I heard she passed away a while back.

Kent don't you think that she looks like Ann Margret in that Pic?

That's a rellay good photo of her. Too bad. As Harrison wrote "All Things Must Pass"

Yes Brian she does look like Ann Margret, interesting here in UK we spell Margret as Margaret.

Not the most flattering pic of her, in her heyday she was some looker but rumoured to be gay, but as Rod Steiger said in No Way To Treat A Lady "That Doesn't Make Me A Bad Person" a true sentiment.

I spell it the same way as you do. For obvious reasons. Anyway before I posted that message, something told me to look her name up to make sure I was spelling it correctly . Didnt want to get told off by some of our American friends.

Too funny.

Yep Americans never learnt to spell some English words correctly. What is a faucet anyway, Tap is far better. Why are toliets called washrooms

Roy: At the risk of going 'off topic', let me clear it up for you. A toilet is still a toilet, but over here it is found in a public restroom or private bathroom. We don't use the terms 'washroom', 'water closet' or 'WC'. More importantly, American plumbing almost always works better than most plumbing found in Britain or the European mainland. I might be from Texas, but during my travels to England I'm often mistaken as being Canadian. Rather than be offended, I simply chalk it up to being raised by strict parents who insisted that I speak clearly and use proper grammar at all times.

Randy

My comments were tonque in check no offence was intended believe me, just my sense of humour, sure though when in Canada my brother who lives there now kept refering to washroom, when in my book he meant toilet.

Ann-Margret was Swedish-American, gentlemen, and her parents chose to use the Sewdish spelling.

Sewdish, get it?

Roy: No offense was taken (but notice how I spell the word correctly). Ha ha!

Hey Roy aren't typos great. "Tongue in check" Thats brilliant almost biblical in nature.

Paul Sewdish sounds like something Lennon would write. She was a Sewdish Lirg who lived in Helstinki. Now you've got me doing it.

I sat belonely by a tree

Humbled fat and small

A little lady sing at me

I couldn't see at all...
