What a handsome young man!  and to think I only lived across the road from you.  But haven't our houses changed!  I remember your Mum very well - and dear Fluffy, your cat.

My goodness! You remember Fluffy?! Incredible. She was some cat. Run over twice but still went on to deliver a few litters! Then the famous litter occured while we were here in UK on leave. She made a nest in one of the trees, useing her chest fur to line it, had the kittens and was still there in the trees when I found her.

As for the houses changing - hell yes. Luckily Mike took a pic of the house from the backroad so I could see my old bedroom. Don't know why but that room and the Beatles for Sale LP are linked.

You tosser!  :D :D 

How did they release you? Reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson in the latest Top Gear special," Polar Expedition" when he got that nut (metal one) stuck to his lip. Did you see it on BBC2 the other night?
