its actually revolver....dunno who mixed it
Thanks jth - loved your linking of The Bieber to Fonda Klute, by the way
In merry Winchester (where I grew up) there is a hardware store called D&G which I hadn't visited for years - hilariously today I noted they had a front page article about madonna working with D&G in their window, and a marvellously shit collection of faux D&G objets in the shop -how fabulous is that? Also the guy who works
inside is a bit like freddie mercurys country cousin and, no matter what the time of year he always wears short shorts.
Fabulous - I thought I would share that.
A hardware store with a man in hotpants? He sells studs and screws and plungers etc etc?
