Re: Gerard! (Slight Return)

I used to be in a band called The Straight Cut Chips if that's any use 
followed by a band called Nell's Pantry, named after a room in a pub 
somewhere in Bower Ashton (where the drummer lived). He had a Japanese 
import of the Wooden Pegs for the Spokes limited edition CD. Apparently, 
Peter de de de de de de de de Freitas played drums, before his demise on a 
motorcycling holiday in France. Rumour has it ... he used the wrong peg on 
his Ducatti after consuming vast quantities of wine from the Peginon 
region.... and ad in finitum. 

Doc: Can't you read Lisa's got my room!

    Surely Top Trumps work better for that.
     
    Wasn't Top Trumps the title of the second EP by the Front Spokes?
