Margaret J featuring Spotted Dick (witho

Origin & Inspiration

published 24 Jan 2014

I was approached to write a video review for online food & music magazine Lhyme to write a review of the Margaret J video Thank You Very Much (see below), as they had been reading my blog and loved the stylish scriptings of Xym

Only caveat - keep to 4-6 paragraphs and it needed to be linked to Spotted Dick (as a recipe would be added at the end).

Margaret J featuring Spotted Dick (without Suet)

Salutations gastro-gnomes! For mine debut, one hath been tasked with checking out the latest teen sensation, the Pop Pixie known as Margaret J with her equally debut single "Thank You Very Much". A tune that deals with the harsh brutalities of adolescence and being embarrassed by your parents:

To whit; being forced to attend a naturist party for your dad's birthday with all his nudie neighbours. A horrific soirée of skyclad Barbarellas & Godzillas as you get told off by your mum for not denuding yourself.

Where Rebecca Black's "Friday" called for ear sealant, this pop tart's visual accompaniment will have you reaching for the eye bleach! How can one compete with Robin #Thicko's "Blurred Lines" topless models & Miley Cyrus's twerkage? Why, by surrounding the dodgily aged popstress with great fat hairy nudie dancing old folk like a rather dodgy pædo party!

Which it CLEARLY ISN'T. A minute into the video, and there's nothing more natural than to subject your offspring to a waving wang, but you know what they say "Oop Norf o' t'England" - Once tha's 'ad black puddin' fer t'breakfast, tha'll never go back. or summat.

Spotted dick? No! Thank you, pixelation. Thank You Very Much
