The song featured heavily in the 1989 film, Shag. (BTW, have you ever watched it? Pop some popcorn and make a date to do it !) However, the track was banned by the BBC because the word “shag” means … well, you know what it means… in colloquial British English.

Come for Lunch and bring your ideas! Great Lunch Menu & Reasonable Prices Saturday, May 19, 12:30 PM Reservations are not required, but JW’s JW & Friends, 6531 Backlick Rd., would like a general headcount.

This year’s theme is “Elvis” so we’ll be all shook up if you can’t make it. We need your ideas but most of all WE NEED YOU!

DIRECTIONS TO JW’s: From the Beltway, or from I-395 inside the Beltway. Take the Springfield exit and stay to right on this long exit ramp. At end of exit, take immediate right on to Brandon. Take next left on to Bland. At 2nd light, turn left on to Amherst and go up & across the bridge. At bottom of bridge (traffic light), take immediate left on to Springfield. Street dead-ends into Backlick Rd. (You can see JW’s, slight diagonal across thetreet). s Turn right on to Backlick and then turn immediate left into JW’s parking lot. From the west and I-66, avoid the Beltway and take Fairfax Parkway (east/south) Fairfax Parkway eventually will turn into Springfield/Franconia Parkway. You will follow parkway almost as far as going to Springfield Mall. You’ll be about 1.5 or 2miles short of Mall when you need to exit Parkway. Take the Backlick Rd exit. At end of exit ramp, turn left on to Backlick. At the split, bear right and keep goingstraight. Look for JW’s on your right. Coming north on I-95, from Lorton area. Just past Newington, take the Backlick Rd north exit. This is a confusing exit. Have faith and just follow the arrows that say Backlick Rd. north. After a few miles on Backlick, stay in right lane and keep going straight at the split. JW’s is on the right.
