No but prior to this ‘success’ he was pushing old folks to the X-ray dept at St Marys Hospital Paddington where I was nursing. He since wrote a tune for Eurovision but it wasn’t selected. I imagine he still writes but dont know where he is now. London somewhere. They dont have a ‘myspace’ which is a shame as lots of 80s bands do (ie Dept S whose video ‘I want’ is on youtube featuring yours truly!)
