Canny story that like.

Was a young Mini tucked up in his cot, or toddling around mixing with rocks glitterati?

I'll have to ask me mam.
There's another story about her knocking the lead singer of The Sweet back.
She said he was the ugliest man alive.
 
Les Gray from Mud just died recently.

I read a story of them playing in Sunderland when they were starting out and they were shitting themselves as Sunderland had such rep for bottling off bands. They won the crowd over and it turned into a cracking night.

A few weeks ago in an idle moment I youtubed them from TOTP doing Tiger Feet. There's some random 'dancers' on stage with them doing the alternate shoulder dip joust thing, then the miming ringing the church bell thing, all sort of in time with the band but everyone having a daft laugh. I reckon they would have put on a class show back in the seventies, but how did any band provide entertainment during the power cuts unless you had a battery operated telly?

Is it true that Teed though Dr Funkensteins was a trendy new clothing boutique?

This is true indeed Sneech.
I saw him outside the place dressed up like Alex from 'A Clockwork Orange'.
He was on his hands and knees looking for his false eyelash which had blew off.
