I realized I lacked an 8.
I’ve got 1 ii 2, and 2 of Us, 3/5 of a mile in 10 seconds and 4th time around, I’ve got 5 more minutes and 6 gnossiennes, and 7 by 7 and 9th and Hennepin, as well as a 10 pound float and 11 mustachioed daughters, and I’ve even got 12 x u and 13 valleys. After that it gets a bit patchy although an apostrophical highlight is ‘39 followed by 40 and 40′. I quite like the way 1000 umbrellas are followed by 2000 miles although sandwiched inbetween are 1951, 1963, 1995 and 1999 which disrupts the pattern but provides an interesting detour along the way. But what, most notably, I lack, is an 8. Any recommendations?
my best is ‘days a week’, but it’s well known enough for you to have thought of and dismissed it.
thanks for the stirling advice over at Marmite on Toast. Are you a little bored today by any chance?
mathematicians!! what are ya gonna do with em?!
Yep, it’s no good without the 8-ball.
You could be 8 Miles High.
No 8. This sometimes happens to me. I hate it.
House number. Quick! Run outside and look at your house number. Has it got an 8?
Phew. Made it. You now have 8 comments. At least one of us will be able to sleep soundly tonight.
Sorry to be number 9.

Thanks for the useful comments, but Eight Days a Week and Eight Miles High won’t do because they’ve not got 8 in them, and Rhys’s fabulous suggestion has the 8 but not at the start. (Both of which mean that itunes files them in a different place to the other number songs). So I’m needing a great song (well, mediocre would do) that begins 8….
And there was me considering suggesting that you turn infinity on its side.
Btw, having re-read the ‘yellow trousered women’ post I feel the need to curb my quasi-Pavlovian ’say something encouraging’ response. Was late, was tired, still dunno what it was all about. But hey, if it still helps … good luck!
Gahgahgah!
I STILL ended that previous comment on an encouraging note. It must be pathalogical!
