who used to go to school with the son of Malcolm "Duke" Allured (of Showaddywaddy fame)'s son, who was a real new romantic, used to take a huge ghetto blaster to school and listen to Duran Duran doing his homework. He later starred in a Channel Four documentary called "The Sex Hunters" about a group of campsite disco bouncers who tried to get off with all the girls. They kept score with a little Scalextric track. Did anybody see it? Is our Duke related to this Duke?
i would love to say that i had kept score of all the girls i got off with in campsites or otherwise on a Scalextric track, but sadly must inform you that i would be struggling to get past the warm up/formation lap. And then i'd probably stall on the grid or be shunted off the track by some trendy type sporting the latest in ribbed ticklers. It is a sad and cruel world we inhabit, and no mistake.
He owns two or three crap pubs and North West Leicestershire's finest rural discotheque. Aaah, great days, great days. Best forgotten, I think. At that time Stephen Duffy was called Tintin, and everybody loved him. Belle and Sebastian have got as many members as Showaddywaddy, but no-one called Caesar Romeo.
Tintin! ah those were the days indeed. Ho ho. We danced on the tables in art and sang Altered Images songs til we nearly burst our lungs. We wore tukka boots and legwarmers without a trace of irony. Even the boys. Especially the boys...
Have I got away with it?
