Into #TOTP just in time for the Christmas 1994 number one.

We forget how #East17's hit had a l-o-n-g run on regular airplay deep into 1995.

"Stay another day" was used by Soft Rock Heart FM around one of the two-minute silences the following year. I reckon that's an inspired choice, some disagreed at the time.

A great read, plus I never knew there was a cricket ball factory in the mighty ‘stow. #walthamstow #e17 #east17

A photo from last night’s fire at the kebab shop opposite the pub. There was a *lot* of smoke, but thankfully it sounds like the people living close by are safe. Hope their stuff isn’t damaged.
