  16. He lived a long while in Polesworth I signed him up to the RAC in 1990 and he was still there in 2001 when I dropped into the coop in Tamworth and mentioned it to the RAC man on duty (he said he still saw him occassionaly doing his shopping) I know it don't mean he was still living there but it's a bit too much of a coincidence

  19. The levi ad is Nick Kamen he had hits himself with "Each time you break my heart" (his biggy) made number 5 stayed in the chart for 12 weeks in 1986 and 4 smaller hits up to "I promised myself" in 1990. I think he was championed by Madonna my favorite ad music was the old Cathay Pacific (airlines) ad that used a piece of music called the flower duet from Madam Butterfly (I think)
