“So I thought, I’ve got to get on with it, I’ve got to make the buttons go up to the top and all this to look a bit edgy. And, no kidding, 20 minutes before that, I was packing my stuff. my gear to go and play with the thought ‘I just got out, just got a little work done, and then I’ll be on my way.” Twenty minutes later, I’m walking down the hallway to the Ladies’ bedroom.
