Comments

• Mentions going to a Pizza Restaurant "full of folk from the Middle East, exhausted after a day of shoplifting in the West End". A comment he would be unlikely to get away with today.
• Seems to take great pleasure in pronouncing the title of the Vaavi track in a Finnish accent. Then proceeded to play the wrong side of the single.
