Dodgy Bloke Next Door !
Stay with me on this !
I had a dream....
I lived on a terraced street in number 665.
My neighbour who lived in 666 was a very mysterious character; somewhat in the manner of 'Boo Radley' - he was seldom, if ever seen and the subject of much-maligned local gossip and sometimes described as the devil himself. What was obvious about the occupant of number 666 was his penchant for loud and anti-social music. Things only took a very slight turn for the better when "The Specials" turned up at number 666 in the dead of night for a'sing-song'.
For reasons unknown to myself the song of choice was "Michael, Row the Boat Ashore'......
