Whenever God Shines His Light Everybody Runs And Hides
If you want to get rid of troublemaking youths, play them some Cliff Richard songs, a funfair has found.
According to bosses from Carter's Steam Fair, playing tracks such as "Living Doll" by the 66-year-old pop veteran on all their rides was enough to scare off some "hoodies" and other troublemakers who had descended on the fair last Saturday in north London.
"It was amazing, just like a scene from (the film) 'Mars Attacks' when the aliens were driven away by the sounds of Slim Whitman,"' said the fair's Seth Carter in a statement to Reuters.
"From now on if we do have any trouble we have found the perfect deterrent and it comes in the shape of the Peter Pan of Pop.
"Who needs ASBOs when we've got our Cliff Richard records?"
The Ghost Train was so scary the Geneva Convention was invoked.

I remeber attending a concert at Knebworth in the early 90's. Bands such as Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin,and Genesis was on the bill. George Micheal was also supposed to be performing that day but dropped out, and guess who stepped up to fill his slot (pardon the pun); yes our Cliff. It was like watching a christian being thrown to the lions. I don't think I have seen so many bottles of piss airborn at the same time at a concern ever since that day; beautiful sight.
