Third outing for my Midge Ure anecdote: A friend of mine's wife won a charity raffle for Midge Ure to play in their living room for a couple of hours. It was a gift for my mate, a huge fan. Midge stayed for eight hours, playing non-stop (I think he actually stayed for tea). #totp

We booked Gidea Park for the Christmas Ball at Cumbria College Of Art in 1991. I think they were 400 quid. Afterwards the lead singer asked how I thought it went. I said it was good. He said he thought it was shit. And then they drove back to Essex. #totp

The sommelier in a Scottish Michelin-starred restaurant was a pretentious arse (more so than usual). Asked my Scottish friend what the most offensive thing I could order was… “I’ll have a double 25-year-old Ardbeg and lemonade, please”

Ignition timing on a points-ignition Vespa. It's voodoo AND sorcery and I don't fully understand it. In the olden days I used to give it to a nice bloke called Reuben to sort in his workshop near the south end of Tower Bridge. Now it's just me and a Haynes manual and YouTube. And lots of swearing

What on earth is happening?
  This had become the new normal. RNLI crew members had been forced to take their permits off their cars after their tyres have been repeatedly slashed. Most of them have been pilloried at the school gates or turned away from local pubs. One man who worked in search and rescue had been beaten unconscious and hospitalised, recognised for TV interviews he had done.
