On a previous anniversary when there was a bit of fuss about it I chatted with a friend about where we were when we heard the news.
I was in bed with my then blurk and we were bickering about who was getting up to do the breakfast. I eventually heard the announcement but he didn't, so I said 'Oh get up ya lazy git, Elvis is dead!'
He leapt out of bed, turned the radio up and wandered round the bedroom naked with his hands to his head lamenting.
My friend said 'Oh yeah, I remember it VERY well. I was in hospital because my Dad had beaten me up. My mother came to see me to plead with me not to talk to the police when they came to see me later.'
What the flip?
Techy was still at school. He and his friends said 'Elvis? So what?'
