Don't know why my comments below appeared in a block - I was trying to reply to people who had enquired about "Ed's Funky Diner".

[EarlBruce1]

I heard this maybe a houndred times on my first trip from Mannheim to Swansea in 1988 (or maybe even 1987).

Long live National Express Coaches and Sony Walkman ;-)

[hiramewastaken]

"Space" is what we need. Room to breathe. Call your own space. (And they laugh! especially when I start talking about furnishing the space.)

[dixiethistle]
