It does indeed! It's been a few years - maybe 10 - since I've been to Africa Oye, Grumps. Always had a great time there, although it used to be in Croxteth Park from memory. Sefton Park is nicer, and indeed, back then, I lived opposite the Masonic pub on Lark Lane, its finest artery. You going? Pilot

Strongly inclined, Hugh. I last went along for a day three or four years ago with Rob of this parish and saw Papa Noel and the late Andy Pallacio amongst others (inc. Joseph Hill's son with Culture). A nice day.
