I knew that cause the tree was outside our local grocer's shop where i used to live.

And i thought the mini was white.

There was a rumour at the time the mini was yellow.

And the popular joke SICK as it was.

Tie a yellow mini round an old oak tree.

2. What connects Black Box - Ride On Time to Paul Weller and how many Northernsoul Connections can you find?

Loleatta Holloway did a cover of The Stycle Councils Shout to the top. Black Box sampled her hit Love Sensation for Ride on time.

Weller borrowed heavily from So is the Sun World column for Trans Global Express i think it was. He's also covered a few soul tracks. Big Bird, Heatwave erm sweet soul music.

The Jam were regulars down Le BeatRoute early 80's on a Tues where Dick Coombes ran a Northern night

Tony Rounce was a warm up Dj during their farewell tour.

Ed Piller and Paul Weller have the same hair cut :D
