17th August 1998, 2.36 pm (er…maybe).

First text i got was telling me to hurry up and dial a premium rate number to claim £400 which I had ‘won’ in a competition. First text I sent was one minute later to Carphone warehouse telling them to shove their phone up their @rse.

Don’t worry about what the pseuds say Lamby – great song and lyrics that mean something to anyone with any common-sense and understanding. Enjoy it still!

She lived all alone in Linley Lane
