Peel Day- What did you get up to?

[Jimmy]

It was nice to meet you Neil, and Ken of course, and wasn't Ken's
stint excellent. Some "interesting" stuff was brought up and Ken
couldn't help himself and played a tiny snippet of The Incredible
String Bands "All Writ Doon" as part of the "Peels handwriting" clip.
Great stuff to hear and I'm sure Paul Bryant will be will impressed :-)

I enjoyed the couple of glasses of plonk so much that I popped into
the pub after I got off the bus home and had myself a pint! I was to
tired to go out on the town as I'd been to see Manu Chou the night
before......

Cheers....Jimmy
