The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

Good choices with the last 2, you must be somewhere near, give or take, to my age lol.
I'm 45 Nunyaa. I used to like a mixof punk/New Wave and HM
Oh that's ok lol, am a tad younger by 2 years .
Looking at the photos you have put up of yourself I would have thought you were a lot younger.
Curiously, 26 years is the exact figure that I mentioned for this personal tale from my own long-gone new wave youth:

THaqnks Richard. Glad you like the choices! An interesting blog you have too!
We must be the same age... I love those songs.
