    1983, not 1989 - sorry! Promoting the Debut album, hence loads of their best stuff not yet written. Sound quality was awful, could barely hear the bass. As I said to Mrs Jakarta (not a fan) the Smiths were such a parody band that it was difficult to send them up...

    [Film] Best Film you have probably never seen?

The supporting actors must have been on minimum wage but are almost all of the great and good of British Theatre...

    [Food] How fussy are you with food ?

    Only thing wrong with Sussex is lack of decent (i.e horrid based) food such as freshly made black puddings. Oh and when did I last espy a proper Steak and Kidney Pudding? A tower of meaty loveliness with small but not insignificant amount of proper gravy dribbled over the top, surrounded by...
