Too many folk to name names (wouldn't want to miss anyone) but Zeno, as is by now traditional, claims the 'Above & Beyond The Call Of Duty' award. :notworthy:

Vodka? Montmartre? :innocent: :wink:
It was indeed - never been so happy to overhear someone checking the footy scores, and Quiffy, Jo and the others! This will live long in the memory.

And for those who know Manchester, I uploaded an old piccie of 'the wankered one with long hair' taken in the downstairs pool room in the Banshee ...

I think I put in my brief review that it was "Here Come The Girls" by Ernie K Doe. An inspired choice.

Well, when you have 3 very tall monsters in front you it would be a bit ambitious to say that ;)
So my only solution was to say: "I know Quiff Boy" , and the guys said "Ok no problem man, you can keep filming the show and even jump on stage if you want" :lol:
