So it turns out that Mick Hucknall isn’t Irish... the tosser’s from Manchester! Should have guessed really. And how have we come to this conclusion ? Well - it’s a story....
Evening started off with Mr & Mrs Sniff (& Jake) along with Mr & Mrs Jugs (& Snow) and Mr & Mrs Golfy having dinner in the Wagon. And very nice it was too. After dinner, the men retired to the the drawing room (meaning that the ladies all went home) and partook of further alcoholic beverages.
SS & Sniff regaled us with the story of their recent visit to the Specials Gig (all very interesting and with much frivolity it would seem)
BBB told us of his new remote controlled golf buggy and the charges that he’ll be getting for owning it at the next quarterly.
Jugs reminded us of the yellow staked incident involving Mr Reece and dropping forward of said yellow stakes.
