    I think Bob is more than just a celeb candle shop proprietor and stuffed dog molester. IIRC, he’s actually the UK distributor for Wankee Candles.

    I met Bob Carolgees in the Pagoda Chinese restaurant in the village I live in. Sadly no longer with us, (the Chinese, not Bob obvs.)

    Wankee Candles
    Just checked their twitter, quite amusing:
    “Wankee Candle? @Wankee_Candle 14 Jan 2016
    Not only beautiful, but practical, too. Wankee Candles can be used to help find domestic gas leaks #FactFriday”

    Its a really quite decent Indian now though, so not all bad.

    still at least the hanging gate is back open as a beer pub not a poncy gastro pub…

    Yes, well pleased with that. The food is nothing short of average, but it’s not expensive, and you can go in for a few drinks now without having to get a second mortgage.

    Anyway, back to the topic….

    Enola Gay was named after the mother of Frank Tibbets, the pilot.

    But everyone knows that. 😥

    The B29 that dropped the bomb on Nagasaki was called ‘Bockscar’ & the pilot was Frank Bock.

    What have:

    Brandy (R & B singer)
    Keith Moon
    Sid Vicious
    Matthew Broderick
    Laura Bush (First Lady)
    Don King
    & Caitlyn Jenner

    All got in common? They’ve all killed at least one person.

    But Sid didn’t kill Nancy, Nancy killed Sid.
    Sort of.
    In a roundabout way.
    Well that’s what I learned from a NOFX song anyway.
