1967


Wouldn't it be nice to get on wiv me neighbours( da da da do)
But they make it very clear they've got no room for ravers

They stop me from groovin, they bang on me wall
They're doin me crust in it's no good at all,

Lazy sunday afternoon, I've got no mind to worry, close my eyes and
Drift away, Close my eyes and drift away.

Here we all are sittin in a rainbow(da da da do)
Cor blimey hallo missus Jones hows your Berts lumbago?
I'll sing you a song with no words and no tune
I'll sing at your party while you suss out the moon, oh yeah

Lazy sunday afternoon, I got no mind to worry,
Close my eyes and drift away, Close my eyes and drift away,
Close my eyes and drift away

Aroo de de de do
Aroo de de de dido

Theres no one to see me theres nothin to say,
And no one can stop me from feelin this way

Lazy sunday afternoon I've got no mind to worry
Close my eyes and drift away
Close my eyes and drit away
close my eyes and drift away

There were some looneys in Manure Park when I drank over there. I used to go in The Star in Snowshill Road and The Rabbits in Romford Road.

I was in The Star taking bets at Cheltenham when Garisson Savannah won the Gold Cup. An half-caste bloke named Will had £1 on it. That was the only bet I paid out on in 4 days. :) I was in there taking small bets, a big one would have been a tenner, only took £200 as a float.

First race (iirc) on the Tuesday, a local nuitter named Scotch Andy had 30 facking quid on Bottles, it got done in a photo at 33s. Andy also had £20 on The Fellow in the Gold Cup - another photo.

Him and the Attreed brothers done £400 in 4 days, and a roofer named Roy, another part time villain, done £150.

Happy days.
