00:10 Well he, you know I always knew that David had girlfriends and things, he would often
00:14 tell me about it, it's a well known thing, he did tell me that the band that he was with,
00:20 they drove around in an ambulance with frosted glass in the back, it was a shag mobile, because

00:30 could park your car in Piccadilly Circus and nobody could look in.
00:33 And then one day he calls me up and he said, I've met somebody and I think you'll really
00:37 get on well with her, and of course that was Angie.
