Nigel BlackwellBlackwell's personal mythology covers a wide range of topics which are often juxtaposed in counter-intuitive ways. A full understanding of HMHB lyrics is perhaps predicated on being born on Merseyside in the 1950s or 1960s, being unemployed (or at least not working, to permit exposure to daytime television) in the mid-1980s to early 1990s, and being an obsessive hoarder of books, records, football trivia, and memories of obscure television programmes. Occasionally Nigel turns his attention to the absurdities of everyday life.
Half Man Half Biscuit - All I Want For Christmas Is A Dukla Prague Away Kit
Sample lyrics: "And he'd managed to get hold of a Dukla Prague away kit /'cause his uncle owned a sports shop and he'd kept it to one side /And after only five minutes you'd be down to ten men /'cause he'd sent off your right back for taking the base from under his left winger.."
