Not such a raving loony - the proof
I’ve recently acquired a new pupil, she’s an ex-colleague of Rob, an ex-colleague of Dom and an ex-colleague of mine too.

The next day I was on holiday from work so I went into town and bought the album. I still have it today even though I can't play it.

It takes me back to happy times.
