It's a shame about Ray The Lemonheads

We used to play that one on the pub "jukebox" just to wind up our old landlord as we belted out the chorus and pointed at him behind the bar. You'll be surprised to know he was called Ray. These modern things of course don't have the discs in anymore so he couldn't take it out or move it somewhere else in the carousel. His requests to the supplier/service chap fell on deaf ears, he just laughed and played it again as he left. Some of us had asked him to load it on and put it on the random play list when we found out from him how it all worked. We eventually let his missus in on our cunning plan and she still hasn't told him to this day. They are now long retired in Spain. Bless. It's still a shame about Ray. 
Some pub regulars can be proper bastards.

"Random playlists" of course are not always quite as "random" as the title might suggest. These days, other than collecting the coins, most are controlled via t'interweb uploads/downloads so the service bods only come in to collect the cash, blow the dust out and occasionally replace a pcb with a new set of chips or more memory on them.

You can have the Pumpkin Pie as long as Kim comes round my place with her plate of warm roast chestnuts.
