Shownotes Transcript

The song I’ve sent you this week was a demo I did to pitch at David Alexander….hence the big finish.It’s called “I Love You”….David not only recorded the song but made it the title track on the album he made to celebrate his wedding when he married Penny Page….

I didn’t think it would be long before the publicity obtained from the discovery of Richard the Third spread further afield…yes they have now found the BED that belonged to Henry the Seventh !! WOW!!....I wonder if they will parade it through the streets so everyone can throw flowers at it?...It’s only a matter of time before they find the arrow with King Harold’s eye on the end of it.

The bloke who designed the cover for the Sgt.Pepper album has been commissioned to paint one of the ferry boats…….apparently he got a one off payment of £200 for the album cover…he should have settled for a penny a copy…I suppose the tourists will like the boat….if you can get away with a yellow submarine you can get away with anything.

The police have uncovered a scam that has taken place in Chester…..it’s where a car purposely collides with a bus and a so called solicitor convinces all the passengers to claim for whiplash….the driver is also in on it..... the upshot is that the police are nicking the ringleaders AND doing the passengers for fraud…great news…if it was up to me the whole lot of them would get ten years…

There have been some good April Fools activities…someone almost convinced the TV to cover a sighting of a great white shark from the ferry boat….when all was revealed…and the same paper another year announced that the Mersey was due to be at it’s lowest for 1000 years and it would be possible to walk across from Wirral to Liverpool….again the crowds who turned up were not amused.
