single figure wind speed + wall to wall sunshine = me on the river. got the fenton a new lifejacket so will take him out for a rest drive. the m in boney m stands for MORAL. well it might do. in fact, boney moral sounds just wrong so let's skate over that and find out the true story from the gospel of wiki: take it away Wikipedia...
"The clown who on the internet claims that the group name has something to do with French emperor Napoléon Bonaparte (the 'M' would in that case stand for 'music') obviously deserves to be exiled to Elba.
More plausible is the statement that Boney M. is short for Boney Maroney, a rock 'n' roll number that was inimitably carved in vinyl by Ritchie Valens ('I got a girl named Boney Maroney/she's as skinny as a stick of macaroni', etc.).
This however will also have to be relegated to the realm of fantasy: the origin really lies with a hero of an Australian television series broadcast in 1972 and 1973 called Boney. In the leading part of that series we see James Laurenson, as Inspector Napoleon 'Boney' Bonaparte."
also didn't know sadly bobby farrell passed away in 2010 RIP Bobby you are most definitely boney now.
