🤔 No pluck needed - it’s a cracking single! 😁 I guess we all have music we enjoy and it’s not always the same as other's tastes, but it’s fun to see a variety represented. I proudly stand by my choice. It was after all, single of the week in Smash Hits - the acknowledged authority on these things 👍

I’m pretty sure the fan base was mainly girls, so you wouldn’t have been alone in your thoughts! But they had such a quirky charm and brought me lots of happiness 😊

BIG Nick H fan back in the day! 🥰

I took my copy of their album Pelican West with me when I went to see them at UEA, kept it safe during the gig and then got them to sign it for me after!

What an amazing story! What an amazing sound 😊 Love the finger plucking guitar style.

I missed the campervan programme 🤦🏻‍♀️

I also miss Sean Hughes 🥺

Absolutely brill! I did toy with picking this one but in the end, Nick won out. So I’m so glad you did. 🥰👏👏👏

I remember Sean Hughes challenging him about his fear of lakes on a Never Mind the Buzzcocks episode once 😁

I see Radiohead went in a slightly different direction to Nick Heyward and the lads from H 100 😁

Do the young ‘uns realise what a dangerous time we lived through, I wonder? Even if your loons survived, there was a chance your hands would be smashed up by the clackers!

Oh yes! Lovely fried onions smell 😊

Now I’m remembering this strange drum shaped ride which spun you around and you stuck to the sides. That can’t have been safe, can it? 😳

I remember Blue Peter talking about it. That’s how seriously it was taken!
