        Hi Anthony Rogers,
        You are right, of course, that was too easy! :)

        Potash
        Very close, well done! I'm just a little closer to the Deptfod side of New Cross... [Does this mean you'd worked out who was the famous band?]

                  I used to know Mark Knopfler when he was studying journalism round the corner from where I was working - and I was a part time lecturer at the college. :blue thumb:

                      They did, but they moved into a disused pub for some time. I don't know which one but it was thought to be 'The Duke'. :noidea:

                        :love30: Oh @wiseowl what wouldn't I have given to meet my all time sporting hero Ali. I remember disobeying my parents (" it's on far too late and you have school tomorrow") and listening to his 1st fight with Sony Liston on a tiny transistor radio underneath my bedcovers as it was in the early hours of the morning uk time from memory.
                        I did meet "our Enerie" once when he was opening a supermarket for the company my father worked for. He was really nice to me and I had my photo taken with him "punching" my stomach. Unfortunately the photo has been lost in the mists of time as it would be nice to have still got it.
