OFF: Heaven and Earth / Noddy

[Richard Lockwood]

That's it.  I'm going to shoot myself in the head with a small bore rifle
now.

How could I get that wrong?!!  I've got the bl00dy albums - UK *AND* US
versions.  I went to NYC primarily to find a copy of Keep Your Hands Off...

I'm so upset with myself now I'm going to go out and break my copy of
"Beginnings" into a thousand pieces.

<FX>How could I get that wrong?  How could I get that wrong?  SMASH! How
could I get that wrong? BANG</FX>

Cheers,

Rich.
