Move over, Ms L!

Hi all, wondering why you are looking at this jumbled up page? This is due to the fact that Facebook didn't like our url since it starts with wog, so we have been forced to move the blog. This was some time ago, and we have placed a script which would automatically send you to our new location. Obviously, this hasn't worked for all of you, since we have just finished moderating some of your comments which appeared on this site recently, and not on our new (and improved!) site. So what we're saying is head on over to our new site, and update your bookmarks!

Shirley Temple

Still from "Bright Eyes"
Another person from the Sgt Pepper cover has left us with the passing of Shirley Temple yesterday, at 85. The above photo, a still from the "Bright Eyes" movie, was used on the cover. Actually, Shirley was used twice on the cover, because the doll is a vintage Shirley Temple doll.

The doll on the cover
Originally there were three instances of Shirley Temple on the cover, the third image of her was obscured by the Beatles' wax figures. For a complete guide to the people on the Sgt Pepper's cover, see this previous posting.

For the 'proto-grunge' fans, Shirley Temple's daughter played bass on the Melvins group. Here's a picture of hers and her mother with the Beatles:
