I believe it's a feature on Kimono My House and that Martin Gordon is interviewed for it.

I'd also like to know if it's worth ordering online.

I was there ... can't remember the name of the pub or where it was exactly. I'm thinking it may have been in Borough or somewhere else in upper Southwark?

Complete coincidence would be my take on this ... but none of this matters, as Sparks have just won an award, very rightly so, for 'outstanding contribution to music'! 2 ...

KMH & GS t-shirts for me, plus the mug & the puzzle. I too would have plumped for a blue Propaganda t-shirt. The heads-up from Alex (thanks for that) re the sizing came a little too late, alas ...
