Dr.Dave Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) He looks like the sort of tosser who pretends to be a wild child at the gates of oblivion but then goes out to work as a bank clerk. As far back as 1982 I was at least making an effort to look as if I'd come round your house , throw up on your carpet , eat the contents of your freezer as a milk shake and f*** your dog.

KevB Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It was indeed The Lion, it had been my local for years but by the time I played it I didn't live close to it any more.

Dr.Dave Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Yep - same precision. A 73 I bought used in 78 - though it stays home on grounds of being too precious for most of the drunken ballsack-filled Marys I get to play in and I use the Jap Blueflower. Same jeans too for that matter ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
