I went to see the Stones for free in 1969 in Hyde Park, aged 15. Me and a schoolmate hitched up from Didcot without our parents knowing ;) Loved the Third Ear Band

(3 years later I ended up working for Blackhill Enterprises and their various fun artistes)

Back to the film line earlier - a clue, it featured lots of shrivelled foreign willies

Script-writer had early Stones record?

Early? Let it Bleed was their 8th album! But I suppose it's relative. I forget they didn't actually disband after Exile, I just like to think they did.

Yes, I accept your wriggling!  But the Stones, like me, are 1000s of years old.  So, 1969 is definitely early!  I think they were playing it earlier that that, too.

I was asked at work the other day if Mr Smith's name was actually Mr Smith. When I replied in the affirmative, colleague expressed some disappointment that we were not super-geeks and that I was not called Mr Anderson in return.

Well done, you win the Black-Hill poppy.

The Thirty Nine Steps.

We had some chickens visit our Scout troop a few months back. That week's "win a bar of chocolate" question was "What causes pip in poultry?"

Possibly a bit too obscure.

Must’ve missed that first time round; surely it’s the sole word of dialogue from “Silent Movie”, spoken by Marcel Marceau.

Sounds a bit Marxist.
