in which we answer questions from a live audience.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Hi, guys.

Hi.

So, um...

Listen, look.

Well, hey, here's the situation.

Yeah.

Who has got a question for us?

Oh, wow.

Immediately, straight at the front there.

Anne Hand went up in the front row,

and I like the front row because it's close.

You, sir.

Right, so you guys are on about, you know, like, stupid stories from...

No, not us.

Next question, Sock and Bollocks.

So, you guys are on about, like, silly stories,

you know, like, that house party's gone wrong.

But, like, my question is, have you guys got any stories

about, like, really stupid stuff that happened,

like, in your first cars?

Like, stuff that was, like, memorable?

Well, yeah.

Bear in mind, Johnny still has his first car.

So, that's a whole, what, how many years?

Next year, 30 years.

30, yeah.

So, that's a whole spectrum of stupidity.

Sad, really.

But, you know, weird stuff that's happened.

Well, just funny things all over the place.

Yeah, funny things or stupid things,

or you got trapped in a fairground.

Mary go round in one, as per previous chat.

Well, I remember driving it to an illegal rave once,

and with a couple of my friends.

Was there someone using a circular saw?

Or was that just happening?

No, there was, someone was serving mulled cider,

but they didn't want money for it.

I remember that much, which was brilliant,

but frustrating as the designated driver.

And then, we found the sort of rave tent thing

in the woods, and everyone else was, you know,

enjoying themselves and may have been under the influence,

but I was the designated driver.

And I got weird, a little bit weirded out,

because in the middle of all this raving,

there was a woman with a baby,

and it felt like a fever dream.

So, I went and sat in the car,

and I must have fallen asleep,

because I woke up, and the car was in like a verge,

in the middle of nowhere, on the Exmoor Hills.

And I woke up with like, do you drippin' off my nose,

because it was that cold in the car?

And I couldn't find my friends,

and we didn't have mobile phones.

So, I just started the engine and drove home.

Oh! Yeah.

Yeah, about five in the morning, it wasn't dawn.

But I just drove home and went to bed,

in Mum and Dad's house, because obviously I still lived at home.

Of course, the beauty of it being those days was,

you didn't even have to turn your phone off,

they couldn't phone you.

No, what did they do?

They got a lift home with the new age traveller.

Yeah, who made them breakfast?

Because they had a wood-burning stove in their old,

like, ex-telecom, Mercedes, whatever it was.

Yeah, they said it was actually pretty cool.

Wow. Yeah, no one got murdered or anything, so it was fine.

I was going to say, I thought you were about to say

that all of your friends just perished.

No, nobody perished.

The news man's style.

Everybody perished, but we all had a good laugh about it.

No, no, good.

But in that same car, I was driving over to my mate's house,

so we used to have lots of house parties,

because he had an outdoor swimming pool,

which was always amazing,

apart from if you got a strip naked in front of girls,

which might have happened once.

And then I was driving in the people,

going on one of those big, long hills,

and it was pitch dark, no overhead lights,

and everything cut out on the car.

No lights or anything.

There was a major part of the wiring

that had come loose under the back seat.

And you know, when you have to memorize the situation,

you can do it when you go home tonight.

Walk into your living room, stare for five seconds,

and then hit the lights,

and then you have to work out where everything was.

Everything.

That never worked out. But you have to start running.

The mind plays tricks on you, though.

Amazing. Because I was doing 50 miles an hour

in an old car, and then nothing, just nothing.

But there's a big difference between

banging your shin on a coffee table that you forgot was there,

and mounting the central reservation,

and stuffing your beetles with the front of a happy eater.

I know.

Great information. Which I'm assuming didn't happen.

No, unscathed.

Shit. Yeah.

I might as well just memorize the meanderings and...

Memorize the meanderings. Memorize the meanderings.

I memorized it.

I know this road like that, back of my hand.

Yeah, honestly, I got away with that.

I was reading some of your say about the band Bross.

Do you remember Bross from the eighties,

and they were originally a three-piece,

and then there was the vizies to call him Ken.

Ken from Bross left.

And it was just the twins, Matt and Luke.

Craig, not Ken.

Craig. Yeah. Sorry.

Not that I remember.

And there was a story about how,

when they got their first sort of big payout

for their pop success,

Matt and Luke went and bought identical Porsche 911s.

And they were driving down the motorway

with their girlfriends of the time.

And whichever one was following, let's say it was Matt,

went right up behind Luke and was like touching,

bumper to bumper, a hundred miles an hour,

on, let's say, the M4.

And his girlfriend in the passenger seats,

go, what are you doing? You're crazy.

Stop it. And he went, don't worry.

Me and my brother were twins.

We have a telepathic connection.

He knows exactly what I'm doing.

Then they pulled in and Luke leapt out of the leading car

and went, what the fuck were you doing there?

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

I realize I've just told someone else's story

and not any story about mine.

I don't have any good stories about my first car.

I had a Ford car as my first car.

I don't, I mean, I drove it like a knob,

but I don't, there's nothing particularly funny about that.

And in retrospect, I slightly shudder at, you know,

how I could have probably had accidents.

Oh yeah, totally.

But, you know, that's being youthful and stupid.

Yeah, I haven't got loads of stories.

But has anyone, by the way,

has anyone bought a different kind of noise

that they could, because we've got,

we've got circular saw down there.

We've got some kind of grinder there.

Now we've got someone dropping metal things.

I've got a lifetime collection of ring spanners

that I'm going to drop off a balanced... Oh, lovely.

So if anyone wants to come and listen,

it's great. It's like industrial snowfall.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm really...

But I'm going to do them one at a time rather than the whole box.

Does anyone over this side have a question?

Oh, go front row again.

Sorry, we will move further back, but front row is easy.

Back in the 80s, my dad bought himself a DB6

for about 1,500 quid. Bloody hell.

And... It was a different time.

Yeah, exactly.

And you run it on a shoestring for about three or four years.

Sold it for four grand, thought he was the business.

Just before about 18 months later they was like 40, 50 grand,

and now everybody knows how much they are.

What cards have you sold just at the wrong time?

Oh, my gosh.

Supercharged range over.

Kill him.

Um, yeah, yeah, Rich, you know, I don't think of, I mean, you know, you know, I mean, quite

honestly, my first car was a very early Ford Ka, and if I just immediately put it into

a Ziploc bag and sucked all of the moisture out of it, yeah, it would now be the only

Ford Ka in the world that isn't a massive pile of all-bram. Yeah. It might be worth

upwards of, I don't know, four and a half grand. Yeah. So I can't remember what I sold

that car for. I sold it, I was, I just abandoned it a bit. I wasn't quite

algal, but it was definitely very dusty and underground car park. And the tires

had gone a bit flat. Really? Yeah, because I didn't really need it, but I was

too lazy to sell it. And then I sold it to a mate's girlfriend because she

just needed the car. But, but my mate, as he, because he was into cars, he went,

I'll just take the keys off you and I'm going to clean it up this weekend before

she gets it. And then he was so pleased with what he'd done. He drove, he drove

into work on the Monday morning. We worked together and I saw it in the

car park when I arrived at work and it looked amazing. And I realized I'd

sold it for far too little money, basically because I was too idle to

clean it. And I was really cross with him. I went to the office. Was it famous in

New Car when you got it? No, it was six months old. It had been a

courtesy car for a dealership. I'm trying to think. I mean, there's been a few

cars. I tend to not sell cars unless they make money or break even. And I

pride myself on seemingly having an okay barometer at that. But I have

definitely sold a couple of cars too early. 100%. And the, the, the, the

bubble car I sold to Michael Barrymore, I probably sold that too cheap. But you

know, but in a way, the story out of it, he's gone away lightly. He still

hasn't replied to me on Instagram. I would, I'd really like to formally

apologize to him for selling his story to the son. I needed to make ends

meet. My favorite story of, you know, letting something go way too cheap is

by proxy. It's not my story, but it's someone I used to work with. Her dad

had a Ferrari in the early seventies, early seventies, and it wasn't worth

an awful lot. But it was, well, it was worth enough that he realized if

he sold it, he could put my friend, Zoe, who was then a, I guess, sort of, you

know, 10 or something into private school. And so he decided to do that by

selling the Ferrari. And I think he got something like 10 or 12 grand for

it in 1977, which at the time he thought that's a fair price. And it

was enough for school fees for a few years. But the Ferrari was a 250 GTO.

It's in fact, he sold it to Nick Mason. Shitting hell. It's that 250 GTO,

the one that, you know, has been driven a lot in magazines and things

like that, and is now worth squifty billion, yeah, bajolars. Yeah. But

yeah, he let it go for, you know, and at the time that was because I

can't remember exactly the year, but say it was 1977. It was something

like 12 grand. Now my parents bought a house, like a nice detached house

for I think like 25 grand in 1977. And at the time, they were really

stretching themselves. So it was a different time. It was a different

time. But it was also a 250 GTO. And if he just sat on it for a

little bit longer, he could have probably put everyone in this room

through private. Whether they wanted to or not. Bloody hell. I know.

Now, like a lot of people, I attempt to stave off the spectre of

aging by running and doing other bits of exercise. Do you know what's

really important when you're exercising? Shorts. Hydration. That

would have been my second guess. But I don't just want boring

water. So I've really got into drinks containing electrolytes and

minerals and all that good stuff. Which is why I was very excited

when Holy sent me one of their starter packs, which includes

some of their hydration drink powders, particularly like a little

sachet. So you know, you've got the right quantity. And they

send you a shaker too. So when you whack the powder and water

in there, you give it a shake and you're ready to go. And

these drinks come in a whole range of delightful flavors. I've

already got my favorite sounds brilliant. It is. Allow me to

sum up my thoughts in a song. Do you have to?

You didn't mention that the Holy starter pack also contains

milkshakes, iced teas and energy drinks, all that listeners

can get £5 off their first order if it's over £14.99 with code

SSG5 or 10% off any order with code SSG. Those will have to be

songs for another time. Well, isn't that a relief?

Anyway, has anyone else got a question? And Johnny, you're

going to go out with the book now because my knees hurt from

driving a Defender all the way here. Oh, there's hammering

now. We've got hammering. That's good. A new noise has joined

the mix.

Hi. I have a Mercedes W123 280 track car. Oh, because it's the

obvious track car for track days. It's not the quickest, not the

best handling. You're not meant to time on a track day. But

when you get out of it, you've got the biggest grin on your

face imaginable. What left field car would you have as a

track car? A Legro's excluded.

That's a good question. I think I've seen video of your car on a

track day, possibly, unless someone else has got one. And it

looked brilliant.

Did we talk, we might have talked about this on a previous

podcast, there's some people, I think they're JLR engineers

who've made a track car out of a 322 Range Rover. And

because they could hack its brain, they could get the air

suspension to sort of stay permanently in access mode. So it

looks dropped, which obviously reduces the roll center a

little bit. So that obviously is quite appealing, but someone's

done it. Yeah, I don't know. What would you do? I mean, I used

to have a list on my laptop of all the things I would do. Day

cars, V30 docked dock, silly restomads that no one in their

right mind would do. I had a few of those. Rancho, interesting

come this Monday. Oh, I am going to see my my Rancho WRX, which

the body has just kissed the chassis of the Scoobleroo. Has

that? Yeah. That's exciting. So we know that things are going

to fit. So it's a pretty good milestone. So I mean, that'll

be quite good for a little bit of lightweight track work with

the family. I've always wanted I thought, rather than circuit

racing, I'd like to do something like off road, like an AC Cobra

done as a off road car, like a four wheel drive. Yeah, rally car.

Yeah, stuff rally grass or that will be really cool. Yeah. Yeah.

I quite like just a Zantia Activa, just to mess with people's

heads. Have you got one? You've done that. You've tracked a Zantia

Activa. Wow, of all the cars. Oh, damn it. It was very upsetting

when you've had to because you were in a normal Zantia and you

were like, damn this role. I tell you what I'd like. I've just

thought of it. I'd like a message Schmidt bubble car with a

Honda Goldwing flat six. Because I've fantasized about putting a

Honda Goldwing engine in a car now for four years. Because it's

like smaller than that table. And it's the most beautiful,

balanced, compact little flat six. It's a delightful and

absolutely delightful. And a fraction of the price of a Porsche

flat six or any other flat six. Really, what could you buy

a Goldwing flat six for? We can buy a Goldwing that someone's

like fallen over on all of them. Yeah. I mean, I've seen them on

copart for 1800 quid. Really? Yeah, and the handlebars are all

wanked. As long as it runs, I don't give a fly because I'm not

getting on it. I've never seen copart put the description as

handlebars all wanked. Well, the bottom line is I'm just

wanting it for the engine and the gearbox. And I think it'd

be amazing. And of course, it's got reverse gear on them.

So making your mission for 2026 is just buy every copart

Honda Goldwing with quote unquote.

Well, in my noise bingo car, they did not have elephants. But I

think that's what that was. Oh, yeah, there's a there's a

very sort of pre war strongman competition going on. You

know, when they get an elephant to put one leg up and

a very long mustache and sort of like leprent pants. And then

yeah, yeah, she's heading the mouth of tiger. Yes, all of that

stuff. Yeah, we're making our show sound rubbish. Yeah, God, you

could be watching that show's mega. Yeah, it's good. Obviously

everyone down there's got consumption as well because

it's a Victorian show. But that's fine. I can't think why

also we do in that in that vein because because that's a

message. What Honda Goldwing motor go nice in that Sinclair

C5 right next to it. I thought you were going to say the

Armstrong Sidler. Armstrong Sidler. Yeah. Have you met

Armstrong Sidler? I went to school. He's something very big

at the home office. Yes. Yes. We don't want to ask you

questions. Look at that. It's on the aisle as well, Johnny.

You've lucked in on the aisle on the aisle. Are you

still friends with the prelude guy? And does he know

he's expecting royalties? Prelude guys. Is he getting

royalties? No. We're building up a roster of people that we

imagine the future will sue us. I I've tried to find him on

LinkedIn just to see if he's alive. And and also I have

started to get worried as the unexpected success of that

impression and possible merchandise and everything

else. So I don't know. I don't know him anymore. But one of

my friends from university who lived in the same house as us

has messaged me and gone. Have you spoken to him? And I went

no, no, I don't even know if the guy's still got a beating

heart. So I love the way that every time we discuss this

you're you are not 100% that he's still alive. No, just

because of the lifestyle that he was he was on an interesting

trajectory. Should we say very interest people pull things

back, don't they? Yes, they do pull things back. Someone I used

to know who's right. I can still know he's he was an absolute

caner and now has a really responsible job. And you just

go it happens. Yeah, believe as long as you suddenly have a

massive, a massive acid flashback in the middle of

briefing. I hope he's alive. It'd be nice to connect

with him possibly depending on whether or not he hands me

some sort of legal writ. Yeah, yeah, it was a funny it was a

funny team really leans into it. And he can be like our

support act when we can be an emcee at these shows. Yeah, he

just does the thing. Talks about preludes for about 20

minutes. And then some really sick. Yeah, Nikki Finn. Donovan

bad boy Smith or something like that future maybe I don't

know. So it's on you now to try to establish

contact. Well, yeah, I don't know. But I'm going to try and

find out the the LinkedIn paper trail continues. I don't like

links. I'm a bit scared of it. It's the most needy of all

that it's like business social media, isn't it? But it's

a needy. I stopped being on it because I think they send you

like 100 emails a day. Yeah. And if you check all the box

and go don't send me any emails, they send you

another 100 emails going sure you don't want any more

emails. And I was just lost the will to live. It's like

boring business Facebook. Yeah, it's also because it's full of

people just going had a really magical day today just the

power of teamwork. I've clinched some business today. Shut up

and go and have a wank in a hotel. Yeah. No, no, that's I

imagine what business people do. I don't know. That's on my CV

on LinkedIn. That's one of the did do that in 2004. Yes.

Um, is there is anybody? Oh, you got stronger. I'll do that.

I'm going to go over here. These are my people. Yeah, that's

right. We're picking sides now. I have a bit of a theory and a

question that goes over. I think all the toaster events I

and Scotard Octavius that used to use as mini caps have all

worn out and they're all gone. And now using anything as a

mini cab, I've seen a Renault Zoe use as a mini cab. I've

seen this and you use as a mini cab. Oh, my God. And only this

morning, I saw a Toyota. No, sorry, not Toyota. It was a Renault

Clio being used at a mini cab. No, all in Chesterfield in

Derbyshire, right here in Derbyshire. Wow. What is the

most inappropriate mini cab you've ever seen? Well, I mean,

well, because first of all, your theory is fascinating

because what you're saying and I think you might be right

is that there's no consensus on the mini cab du jour. And I

think you might be right. Like I think maybe in London, it is

still it's it's Prius town, but outside or the wind knife. Yes,

it's sort of got a slight claw hold in the market. But as I

discovered to my cost, there was a period when I was getting

a lot of mini cabs for some reason, and they were all

priuses. Pry eye eye. And I was so used to getting into a

Prius that one day a hyonic hyonic high and I ionic ionic

this is called ionic wasn't it? Yeah, when turned up, it sort of

looks like a prius and I was tired and it was dark and I went

to get in the door frame is slightly lower and I smacked my

head on the on the outside of the car in a really

undignified way. And that's a bit like, oh, black mark for

high and die there. Yeah. So but but I don't you're

right. So I think sort of outside of major cities. Perhaps

there isn't a mini cab consensus anymore. So what's happened to

the Octavia? Why has that lost the world? What what's happened

to the mini cab office? There was always a sweaty little

smoky office. Yeah, they look very drab, very drab. Yeah, also

incredibly over lit with fluorescent tubes, which in a

way enhanced the drabness. Yes, because it showed every

bleak office chair with stuffing bursting out of

exactly that cushion bit there where your leg goes. Yeah. And

a man, an unshaven man possibly with slick back hair smoking

furiously. Yeah, indoor smoking. Yeah. And on a radio and

getting very angry with an unseen driver, someone else who

couldn't get his shit together. Yeah. And possibly for

extra points, suddenly turning round and unexpectedly

shouting in a language you couldn't quite place somebody

else. And that's all gone now. Yeah, it has. Bloody apps. Yeah,

the simple pleasure of an extremely smoky porta cabin with

an angry slick back hair, man. I don't know if this mini

Zafira is kicking about because obviously they're a cheap

seven seat. I think they've lost it because too many of

those were diesels when they were new. Yes. And that's

no good anymore. Yeah. Well, when I first moved to the town I

live in, in 2003, there was a guy with no teeth was one of the

mini cab drivers who used to park at the taxi break and he had

a Sierra in 2003 as a taxi. And I probably said this on a

really early podcast, I used to when I used to go out on

the town, I would make it. I would wait an extra half hour

for him to go and drop someone else off and come back

and I would go to Sierra man and he was known as Sierra man. It

was weird. Did you ever get a chance to clock the mileage? I

never did. But it was it was like that blue, you know, like a

blue, it was non metallic blue like pigeon. Oh, I know it.

Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Was it a diesel? Yeah. God, that was like

a canal boat. That's terrible. Ding, ding, ding,

ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. And he

smoked licorice rollies. Oh, with the window cracked a

little. Yeah. Well, it's not it isn't an inappropriate mini cab,

but it turns out there was a reason which is years and years

ago in London pre Uber, when you used to just come out of a

club, puber, puber, puber, puber, puber. You'd stumble out

of a club and you'd just there just be people standing

around on street corners and some of them would be mini cab

drivers and some of them will be selling you hooky DVDs. And

you pretty much just had to sort of try and distinguish

between the two. Sometimes they'd double up. Yeah. And you'd

get home and you'd go or you wake up in the morning and

you'd be like, why have I got a receipt for 50 pounds when

we were only about two miles away and also a obviously

photocopied cover version of, I don't know, Dunstan

checks in that movie about a monkey that lives in a hotel. I

don't want that. Or die hard, but you realize that there's two

hours in hardest. And I came out of a club with some friends

and we we found a mini cab guy. But they did that thing also

because the car's not parked outside. So then you have to

follow them through the streets. The pied piper of

getting you home. Yeah. And he walked around the corner

and there's a line of cars and none of them particularly

look like mini caps. But one of them was a pretty much brand

new Vauxhall Corsa three door. What? And I remember turning

to my mate, Roland, going, please be the Corsa, please be

the Corsa. At the point that he flipped the locks and the

Corsa hazards went and we were like, what the and we

crammed there were four of us into the three door Corsa.

I called shotgun because I'm the tallest stems the

rules. My three friends got in the back. Because I was in the

front, I could shut the driver and I went, it's quite unusual

for a mini cab, mate. And he went, yes, courtesy car.

I don't I didn't get on to asking him what his normal

cab was, but I assume is a fear or something like that.

This was a long time ago. Yeah. But clearly it was

in for service. Imagine his face or maybe he wasn't

because he's a resourceful guy. He's just a stoic guy.

They are in there's your courtesy car. Because he's

already said, I need a courtesy car, not telling them why.

They go, there it is. And he looked at it. It's a three door

Corsa. He'd gone, all right, I can work with this. Yeah. And by

God, he did. And he took us home. He sold me a copy of

lethal attraction where it turned out attraction was

misspelled.

I think it was by a hooky time code. Sorry, a hooky DVD

where they had the burnt in time code that you normally

only get from sort of internal copies of movies. So you knew

immediately it was stolen and iffy, but three door Corsa is my

favorite miscast mini cab. I'm sure you guys have seen some

appalling mini Cubs.

Suzuki Jimny. There's a mini cab. What? In this country. That's

it. Oh my God. That's a terrible. That's a bumpy ride

home. Yeah, but you're right. To finish this up, you're

right. I think there's a there's a rash of sort of

small crossover type cast because I got I got in a CHR the

other week. And

there's nothing wrong with the CHR. They're quite good, but

it's like, there's not enough leg room in the back. It's

just, yeah, no good. Not a mini cab. No, bring back the

uptake.

I'm going to move towards the back of the room on this

side. Does anyone over here have a question? I saw an arm

go up over there. Hello. Bit of a preamble. So we take our

dogs into Sherwood Forest, which is basically in

Nottinghamshire. Yes. We pass through the village of

Anasley, where there is a chap I assume, who has not one

not two, but somewhere between four or six or

sometimes eight, Rover 214s, K L reg, all are either

green or red. We are someone over here just

gone. I saw that. Yeah, we assume someone over there. This

is a local landmark. Yeah, we assume because he has a

driveway with them all parked up along with his chainsie. But

he also has one of on the opposite side of the road,

which we assumed was the runner and the rest were all

spares donors, except we've done cheeky drive by VVLA

checks. And at least three of them have been taxed and

insured. It's a great project. Yeah, it seems to

be. So my question is, what's the weirdest, most niche

mark, mark, make and model someone's hoarded that

you've seen? Whoa. Oh, I mean, what's a benches? Talk to

me off. Are you muttering? Well, I was at the back

of the roof. Feel like a teacher. Yeah, because I'm

nearly on standing up and I'm sort of walking

a little adventure chat. Yeah, see me afterwards. I've

brought the Bible with me. So I don't I can't I have

follow up questions. I might need to see you afterwards

about this one. But in the meantime, yeah, can you

think of sort of like the weirdest hoarding of cars

that you've ever seen? There's there's one near

Birmingham where that person and it's a really

expensive, executive looking house. But all of the

front garden area is ruined, because there's about

26 Rover 75s on the front garden. I can't believe you

found my second home. Yes, holiday home rich. Yeah,

scuppered. But yeah, there's loads of them. Loads

and loads and loads of them. Yeah, after we were

filming and we accidentally stumbled across it,

because it's quite an interesting road, the

back road past it. I was like, what the hell?

And the postcode and addresses. I will. I did take a

photo so I could look at the because you told me

about one of those ones before, but you said you

drove past it and I think it was in Birmingham. And

then you couldn't remember where it was when I

spent ages on Google Maps trying to trace it. And

I can't whether I was a car. It's how you go

to our style. It might have been. Yeah, Algal.

It was really out. Yeah. Yeah, I still can't

remember where that was. It's two one of two

roads and I've tried to your clues were it

was like being on treasure hunt. Yeah, without the

helicopter because I had Google Maps instead.

But I did spend probably slightly too long

going. No, I'll track this down. I like the

challenge, but no. You've got near you in the

West Country. You've got Maestro Guy, haven't

you? Yes. Old Maestro Guy. He's and I've

only ever seen pictures of that. Yeah. But I

sort of think I know where it is. Yeah.

And it's not that far from me. And I always

think when I'm going through that place that

I should just take a detour. Yeah. To have

a little shifty near where I used to live.

We had recon exchange Capri Guy. So he had he

had a three mark one Capris on on rotation.

So only one was ever on the road and one was

having full restoration and there would

just be this weird crop rotation that

just used to swing round over time and it

was either the yellow one or the red one

or the blue one. But he always had just

Capris. I've just received a secret signal

that we're almost out of time but we

can do one more question and I'm going

to just sort of oh there's a front row

question and that makes it easy for

everybody. This is a really quick one

because this is a safe space. Yeah. People

of like minds. Just wondering Johnny,

what gig do you go to last month?

Oh! That you were too embarrassed to say.

Do you know? No. Oh. I know.

And I'm sworn to silence. It's only us here.

I was debating. I was debating you know

whether to bring this up because I thought

you know what it was actually a really

really good gig. I had a lot a lot of fun.

There was obviously there was an irony to it.

Simply read. Did everyone get that?

Like Hucknell was on fire. Simply on fire.

He was he was messaging me afterwards.

Yeah that's telling me how tight the band were.

Yes it's true. Honestly. In a musical sense for fuck's sake.

Do you piss off? It started off as a bit of a

joke between me and my lady.

Should we go to a simply read concert?

And then I thought well he's probably is

they're not touring I doubt and then I

looked up and that that they'd put their

tour dates for the next year which was

this year and I went fuck I'm just gonna

I'm just gonna book two tickets and I

booked you they're actually really

expensive as well. I was like they better

be good. This is an expensive joke.

And um it was this it's a 40th

anniversary tour this year.

Yes. And uh it was really really I had

a whale of a time. My highlight was

seeing a lady who'd made her own

sequined full length jacket and across

the back it said a new flame has come.

And I'm not sure she thought that through

no or she did but she was walking

around with it um with a a gallon can

of of white wine.

She was having the time of her life.

So yeah that's my I mean come on

someone must have a guilty pleasure

music concert that they've been to.

Earlier on in the year I bought tickets

from me and Mum to go see Boney M.

Boney M in a concert? Boney M.

But really? Litchfield the cathedral.

He's going to see Boney M. The man from

Boney M generally rates around that's

so so religious.

They were amazing.

Okay well fair enough.

Boney M in a cathedral.

Don't say it can be that I mean

Boney in a cathedral sounds like some of

you'd get thrown out for but

it's good to know. It's reminded me though

and this is a safe space as you

point out. I messaged Rich this week

and said Marilena playing next year.

I'd afforded you the tour dates

and one of them I think is in Bath.

Is it? I didn't look at the dates

because I was too busy messaging you

about going should we offer ourselves

as their support act?

I'm going to say it now we're going

to go and see Marilena.

But we only like one of this

I know two of their songs.

Two? Yeah.

And what if they don't do?

Well they're bound to do Kaylee.

Well come on.

But what if they don't do Charlton's ends?

They will. I'll make some.

Do you think?

Yeah.

You'll make some.

We'll write to them first.

We know people.

Well we know that Steve the

guitarist is a Lexus enthusiast.

Exactly.

We could probably

I don't know.

Talk to him about Lexus.

We'll go and see Marilena.

We've got we're going to go and do it.

All right.

I feel like it'll be closure on the

it might just close it all out

and then we can move on with our lives.

Exactly.

All right well speaking of Rich

that's probably enough from us

but thank you ever so much for coming

down. Thank you for all your excellent

questions and we'll see.

So going so well and I fucked it up at the end.

Ah damn it.

Well what do you want to say but

so thank you all of you for coming

tonight for bothering to buy a ticket

and turn up and it means an awful lot to

us and thanks so much to Great

Northern Classics for hosting us in

this sweet sweet environment.

Yes.

And thanks to the cub or cut out of

David Hasselhoff for looking over us.

With his safety jacket on.

Oh guardian angel.

Yes absolutely.

All right.

Well so thank you.

Thank you very much.

And on that note.

Goodbye.
