Sounds like the ultimate fun

Anyone within easy reach should make this one.
Vortex-based Menwith is holding the world grid in hypnotic thrall.
It's like a nuclear power station based in Glastonbury.
Inherently evil
FunDaMental AND Mark Thomas
How can you miss it?

Did I forget Sheffield Samba?

Excuse
Worth going for on their own part
Sheffield needs a cloudbuster and other orgone devices
Danceable and chantable
The city is so knives and forks real, you could almost forgive them for producing Blunkett
