Who can remember Tommy Steele?

[Bbbananas]

When I was a (very) little girl I used to love Little White Bull. And Half a Sixpence.

Then I grew up and preferred Red Bull (with vodka) and half a sixpence became half a million (I wish) - but that's another story.

Well my mother's told me about him....
