Oh come on now! There must have been more than one? You do not have to play anything on that horn, but it may harm your defence if you do not play when requested any tune you later rely on in court. Anything you play will be given in evidence.

I was gonna put this under the Local Nutters thread, but this guy is more of a character than a nutter. You may have seen him around the City or in Radford during the 60-70s. Mr. Williams was a rotund black gentleman, he must have been at least in his 80's when he died late 70's- early 80's.

I think we were the first in Nottingham with those coats, as they had just come into stock. The fashion certainly caught on. :D
