Yep. But it wasn't a B&B he nicked it from - it was his London flat (a huge one in a Victorian mansion block, which he shared with his landlord and landlady). We were doing the gig in "Sodding Chipbury" and - as part of his usual stage chat - Packie was holding up the shower fitting and chortling loudly about where he had got it.

Only problem was, said landlord & landlady (Martin Winsor & Jeannie Steele) were sitting in the club audience - they were in the area on holiday and had slipped into the club late, unbeknownst to us. You should have seen Packie's face! It's not often that anything - even the Fates - gets one over on him.
