Remember kicking one into face of the coach who was also the janitor, form 5 yards. He was smoking at time
When he got up I got dropped

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
***SMILE, BE HAPPY***
I've still got all the skin I had when I was a nipper.....but it's a bit used. Hair.....mmmm....still some....Faculties.....well you have to have a sense of humour when you look look like an aging twonk
The only material stuff I have is a scrap book of stuff of when I was "famous" in a world class choir up to the age of 14 when we were feted and treated like royalty. Benjamin Britten chose us to sing a new work he had written to celebrate an anniversary of the Save The Children Fund. This was debuted at The Aldeburgh Festival which was close to BB's home which we had the run of. We sang at many Prom concerts at the Albert Hall, St Pauls Cathedral (in front of the Queen) Festival Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall, and many others.
We recorded several works (Carmina Burana, St Matthew Passion, Berlioz Te Deum. Berlioz Requiem) some at BBC studios Maida Vale and Watford Town Hall of all places (good acoustics). Was on telly performing BB's The Golden Vanity for LWT with a full 2 page TV Times spread with your's truly looking..well...err.......young!
