Well I definitely read it in an interview with Momus once too,
although I don't remember if it was head Del Boy or just the drummer.
Maybe Nick Currie is the black sheep of the family and that's why Mrs
Amitri doesn't mention him.  And maybe that song was really written as
a message to their evil disgraced cousin - you know, "Don't come home
too soon you bastard no-one in this family likes you".  Just a thought.
