The Creative Industries Department...

... of Forth Valley College is a humming hive of academic activity most days of the week.

On Fridays... not so much.

A popplier pastime is the "Songs with... in the Title" game

You pick a category and shoehorn items fitting that category into the titles of popular songs from hit parades past and present.

Toots and I were giving it a go earlier this evening

(And once we were finished, we had a game of "Songs with..." )

After an abortive stab at "Songs with High Street Franchises In The Title" (Don't Sleep in the Subway, Blue Moon of Kentucky Fried Chicken... that's it )

We hit on the much more fruitful songs with writers in the title.

New readers start here...

Duran Duran - Hungry Like The Woolf
Beatles - Norwegian Wodehouse
Celine Dion - The Sartre Will Go On
Bachelors - Michael Row De Beauvoir Shore
Eno - Needles In The Camus Eye
Bob Dylan - Ballard of a thin man
Led Zeppelin - Whole Lorca Love
Boney M - Pinter Man
Smiths - A Rush(die) and a Push(kin)
Dolly parton - Capote Many Colours
XTC - This is Pope

We had some worse ones than that too obviously

There's an obvious "salad bar" type thread in this if you ask me

According to Toots like

She really hates you now

s'funny. I always liked Toots. She was very helpful to me once.

I can only assume you turned her against me.

Just thought, Toots did mean Joseph and not Zöe didn't she?

Fuck me. Just googled "Creative Industries Department" at "Forth Valley College" and there actually is one!

We were talking about this link Toots discovered earlier on

http://www.abebooks.co.uk/books/funniest-books.shtml

So I'd say yes
