Yes, Ol' Tezza used to pop round all the time - you know, to borrow a cup of sugar, or a couple of quid to see him through 'til payday.
I clearly remember him telling me, as he clutched the two tea-bags and the bitty remains from our near-empty packet of cornflakes that he was 'borrowing', (you know, just until he got a chance to do some shopping), about some poor old gentleman-of-the-road who had been murdered down our way.
I don't know why people were making the potentially libellous inference that I was talking about Lennon....
"it is very offensive to his fans"
Oh, do grow up !!!
And what does my taste in music being "inferior to the Beatles" (sic) mean anyway?
I have absolutely no idea what The Beatles' taste in music is (well, two that are left at least). I know what music they produced, but not what their personal 'tastes' were.
And can someone's taste in music be inferior to another's anyway?
Now do run along and stop being so precious.
Come to think of it, you don't know my taste in music, magicbeatle, so who are you to judge? Nor do I remember stating that I disliked the music of either Lennon or The Beatles.
Good job we're not totally overrun with fawning, obsessive Beatles fans, as all the Fab Four would probably have been shot by now.
Then again....
