Things I did not know about..

The dark-haired girl from Tightfit with the awesome frontage who sang on "The Lion sleeps tonight" married Pete Waterman.
 
Yep - heard it on a ToTP podcast I was listening to. She was fit as hell in the video for that song. They were married for eight years and had two kids. Good on you Pete!
 
My car is red.........:ROFLMAO:

My black BMW is actually red. It is ruby red, according to the log book. A variant of metallic black, with very suble red metal flake. It is black 98% of the time, but when polished, in the right light, with the eye of faith, it looks a bit red. Almost.

A bit like there is no such thing as a black cat. They are all reddish brown in the sun.

A few weeks ago was at the BMW garage... under the strip lights, i thought a X3 was brown while the lady thought it was graphite or soemthing.. for the life of me, i could not tell. Reminded me of the Blue or Gold dress challenge

The car manufacturers love devising silly names for colours. Bizarre because I don't think people are all that bothered. Apparently my silver audi is actually Monaco blue - who knew?
 
The only band to have supported both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones are ….. the Barron Knights.
Saw the Barron Knights in Eastbourne at the Congress theatre many moons ago, went with the local snooker club ,took the wives and had the two front rows of seats ,one of the ladies was eating a box of chocolates and was seen by a member of the band who got them to stop playing and nick her choccies ,they then proceeded to eat the lot between themselves before carrying on with the show .
Memories ?
 
How noisy the local neighbourhood use to be. There is a school sports ground used my football clubs in the evenings not too far away as the crow flies (500 yards) and although with double glazing etc we don't hear it in the house you can in the garden. We can usually hear a distant rumbling from the busy A329M which is eerily quiet tonight and never appreciated how many aeroplanes actually flew over coming into Heathrow

Heathrow is...insane at the moment. I've worked there nigh 20 years on and off, and am used to seeing a throng of people that only ever really clears around midnight and then only for a couple of hours. Now, its like a ghost town - last time I walked in to T5 Arrivals, I figured out how to lay out a reasonably challenging par 5 down the length of it! :)
