Conversation over the breakfast table at a York Hotel
Me ….. I recognise this song
P……. does sound familiar.......
Me….. it’s that hot dogs thing.....
P….... oh, yes hot dogs, chocolate logs
Me……chocolate logs? It’s not Christmas yet – jumping frogs?
P……. it’s that Albu whatsit song....
Me …. Albuquerque...
P…….How do you remember these things?
Me…..Prefab Sprout
P……What?!!
Me….Prefab Sprout – they sang it.
P……Oh. Well at least it isn’t a Dexys Midnight Runners situation
Me… God, I know – it took us three days to remember their name – I kept thinking
it’s something like the Bow Street Runners.
P… and it wasn’t even them we were talking about at the time.
Me… No, it was all because I was telling you I’d once seen Geno Washington and the
Ram Jam Band's van with their name on the side. More coffee?
