The pop world was shaken to its foundations last week when maverick pop-historian Wayland Smith produced introcontrovertable proof that he had finally discovered the location of one of pop's more beguiling legends, Club Tropicana.
Long believed to be no more than a myth, Club Tropicana is said to be the place where '80s legends George Michael and Andrew Eldritch (collectively known as Wham!) would holiday every year. Smith has spent over twenty years studying ancient records and lyrics in the hope of finding this place where "wine and sunshine, there's enough for everyone".
"I started with the line 'All that's missing is the sea'," he revealed to our Windypops Tropical Legend Correspondent. "That was the first clue - that meant it wasn't on the coast. So straight away the obvious choices of Ibiza, Costa Del Sol and Margate could be eliminated."
For a while Smith was stymied, until a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger in a bar in Ankora left him $1000 dollars poorer, but proudly clutching a tattered map upon which the words "Klub Tropicana" had been crudely scrawled in green biro. "I knew it was authentic immediately," he told us excitedly.
Windypops had one more question for him. Did he really think that the "drinks were free"? "Sorry to disappoint you, but I doubt it," he laughed. "How on earth would a club make a living that way? No, I think the boys were just showing a bit of poetic license. It's a lovely dream though."

I'm not drinking anything at this second, but had I been doing so I'd either have choked on it or spat it over my keyboard. That line was a killer.mh wrote:George Michael and Andrew Eldritch (collectively known as Wham!)
i've seen that sometimes too. its to do with the javascript for selecting font highlighting. it gets in a twist and tries to 'close' the tags but ends up adding extra ones in the middleJames Blast wrote:my colors (sic) don't work, I'm gonna tell my Mom that I'm no good at Math and we need to check the aluminum on the window frames
We just call them pens here, which is ironic, as they were invented by this guySINsister wrote:Hmpf. We don't even call them "biros" over here, so this is all quite grating.
Also, why green? Yuck! I'd have chosen purple, myself...
yeah, but they also call hard drives winchestersPista wrote:We just call them pens here, which is ironic, as they were invented by this guySINsister wrote:Hmpf. We don't even call them "biros" over here, so this is all quite grating.

Another term for hard disk drive. The term Winchester comes from an early type of disk drive developed by IBM that had 30MB of fixed storage and 30MB of removable storage; so its inventors called it a Winchester in honor of its 30/30 rifle. Although modern disk drives are faster and hold more data, the basic technology is the same, so Winchester has become synonymous with hard.
Indeed, I used to live there...well, went to the rather good agricultural college just outside of it. I met Badvoc there, beside the cathedral. The nearest decent club was The Dungeon in Southampton.Quiff Boy wrote:Winchester has become synonymous with hard.
AHA! Thanks, Steve. I love when "mysteries" get cleared up, don't you? And it didn't even involve those meddling kids!Pista wrote:We just call them pens here, which is ironic, as they were invented by this guySINsister wrote:Hmpf.
