Pete the Feet Merchandise

Moseley’s shoeless wonder Pete the Feet has a nifty line in branded merchandise – lighters embossed with what must be his logo, a couple of footprints. Almost worth taking up smoking for.

Despite being welcomed by Lord Mayor Randall Brew**, Ozzy Osbourne won’t be getting a drink when he opens the Birmingham Walk of Stars on July 6th, as apparently the “area is an Alcohol Restricted Zone and the consumption of alcohol will not be permitted in Centenary Square.” Should still be fun – and with the ceremony kicking off at 4pm, you should have plenty of time to get a pint somewhere on Broad St afterwards. *Doesn’t really work, sorry. **He should definitely form a charity cricket team called the Brew XI, shouldn’t he?

Oddness abounds at the Broad St walk of fame thingy, where people are voting for Cliff Richard on the grounds that: He has played the NIA many times in his career and made it home to the massively successful Pro-Celebrity Tennis tournaments throughout the 90’s Just an opinion, but can’t we wait till we’ve run out of Brummies before we start ‘honouring’ any old leather-necked celebrities, just because they’re guaranteed to turn up at the proverbial opening of an envelope? Vote for Tony Butler.

Nominate a celeb for the ‘Walk of Stars’

Walk of Stars, isn’t a great name (is ‘Walk of fame” copyrighted?) – but we can’t alter that. You can, however nominate people for inculsion. We say – “gerron yer bike” and nominate Tony Butler!

We’ve always liked Gary Taylor’s idea for a ‘Brummie Walk of Fame, with Hollywood(the American one)-style pavement stars, although I’m not sure Broad St is the best place for anything. I’ll have to make a special trip tho’ on July 6th when Ozzy comes to the grand unveiling ceremony for his star. Ozzy to receive hometown honour – Yahoo! News UK – thanks to Kate Lyons for the tip off.

Birmingham Rotunda – Icons of England just spotted these T-shirts on Nick Rhodes and John Taylor – and I hear that both Adrian Chiles and Lee Sharpe have been spotted wearing B:iNS badges, maybe our celebs are a little less ashamed that they were in the past. (yes I’m looking at you Sue Lawley).
