Ahh Shambles, I miss him.
Very nearly met the guy twice, but didn't due to my fuckwittery.
On one occasion I was passing through the liitle town where he lived prior to his soujourn to Scotland...I was in a hurry and didn't have time to call in on him...I popped into a Spar type shop to get a drink, must've been less than 400 yards from his yard...
As I was paying for said drink, I noticed a pile of newspapers next to the till, was a local paper and, I shit you not, the front page had a MASSIVE headline which simply proclaimed - "SHAMBLES!" in capitals...I burst out laughing which appeared to unnerve the elderly lady next to me, so I gave her a reassuring wink and went on my way
