From: Morticia No, I don't want to stalk him or the house number or anything butI was listening to Mirror Blue today and in the MGBGT song ( my favourite car in the world) he mentions the Hogs Back, a local road I just happened to be tootling ( alright, speeding like a maniac) along at the time. It occured to me that only locals are likely to know it as the Hogs Back and I wondered if he was local to the Guildford area.....anyone know? |

(That's LONDON North West 2, you US-folks.) I was certainly under the impression he still lived in London - probably simply because I've neve heard it suggested otherwise. Almost certainly the "Hogsback" referred to is the Guildford one. G. |
