black patent leather shoes for those of you interested in such matters thanks for that. I thought I'd put that in just in case you thought he was wearing the silver cowboy boots. Somebody else then shouted out Alison don't be shy, VG. It wasn't me. I forgot to pack a lighter. At some stage Steve sa...

I wish I'd known in advance that I wouldn't be required to sit in court today so that I could have stayed for the 2nd Elvis show in Amsterdam. Especially as I'm sure Steve would have sorted me out with a ticket :cry:

Great stuff.

I'd love to see something like this done over here but who would be able to carry it off?

I'm really looking forward to hearing this.
