Horrible fifties teddy boy pastiche group. Enormously
popular when some of us were little. I can't remember how
the subject came up, bbut it was me anyway. They're from
near where I live. Of no interest whatsoever to your average
Belle and Sebastian fan. I tried to look them up on the web,
but there's not much to see. Yet.... I've heard a rumour
that somebody IS going to start a mailing list, but only
time will tell. In the meantime, it's probably best just to
forget about it, otherwise we'll be upsetting somebody, as
well as driving ourselves around the twist.

I started it, sir, but if someone asks a question it's
polite to answer, isn't it?

So it wasn't the last mention after all. Well, this time it
really is.
