DaBoyz turn wrenches in Old Blighty
Posted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 9:49 pmFrightfully posh address these days, old boy!
Getting a bit expensive for the natives now, though.
It'll be full of Islamist terrorists, and Russian gangsters soon.

Tommy "Two-Lane" Fazoli leased a repair bay at 1/43 Springs Garage in Queensgate Mews. In fact, DaBoyz often take the Underground from South Kensington to grab fish and chips near the Charring Cross tube station, then proceed to the old Royal Commonwealth Society building on Northumberland at which I took most of my classes.
How long ago?
Well, the country had just adopted a decimal monetary system, had not yet joined the Common Market, and that year the IRA blew up the Googe Street Post Office. One off my teachers was MP AEP Duffy and I met both Bernadette Devlin and Jack Dash (he was a guest lecturer for a day--nice guy; confused politics.)
BTW, it's become terribly difficult keeping Uncle Sal out of debates on 1/43 Speakers' Corner on Sundays!
