Rod, its been a very very long time since I saw you last, not quite 30 years. Somewhere between The Bear, Waters, Domino's and Mr.G's. I used to hang around with Gus, recently picked up on his return to Cov, then the really sad news that came as a shock. Do you know where he has been laid to rest or some one that may know. Just want to pay my respects to the happy chap! Regards Alex

Good night at the Ricoh, Rod. Pleased to hear Gus getting a mention. The 4 sniffer dogs at passport control on the way in must have all been on a bender the night before, could cut the air with a knife right of stage. Spotted a few old faces but not that many, probably because the faces have got to old ! Are you involved with the next plaque at the lower precinct / Mr.George's, will be at that one as its close to home so to speak. Guess that Man at New Look's not going to be the next single. Enjoy Leeds and then probably some family normality. Alex

Yes i wanted to Dedicate Concrete Jungle to Gus, i know he would of liked that* Sometimes it takes a while to reconize old faces especially when the years havent been too kind.

What a class bit of TV the other night, correct me if I'm wrong but I would guess that that was the best fun you have had so far. Good luck for the rest of the dates. Alex
