I bet the birds do not dare to perch in the trees and make a noise , for fear of old Shadrack taking pot shots at them with an air rifle ........

Stan Flashman--comes to mind :)

When the " spare " tickets have gone ( made available to people to sending promised money ) - I think we are now down to 6 - even if he was alive today , I sincerely doubt of him deliving " goods " to his motto of " You wanna ticket for Wimbledon , Wembley or a royal wedding ? Fat Stan's your man " would not be kept in respect of tickets for The Torch Reunion ......

Just heard a rumour that tiny Tony and the mint humbugs were performing live on stage :unsure::)

(thats the rest of the tickets sold now :no::):P )

Hope someone can help .......... but it might be easier to find Lord Lucan than this .

I am wanting - if one exists - a good photograph of the front of The Torch at the time of its' all nighter heyday ( 1972 - 1973 ) , for the sleeve design of / for the scheduled Torch Reunion DVD .

If someone has one , please email me at burtonmalc@yahoo.co.uk : and in respect of your help , I will ensure you receive a name check on the DVD sleeve .
