Then they quote Andy:

"On Monday 3rd 1967, I received a letter from Christine showing interest in Chicken Shack. The following day I sent a letter back asking her to join the band." On Friday 14th [hey that's supposed to be bad luck] April, Christine handed in her notice and returned back to the Midlands to become the fourth member of the Chicken Shack.

As far as the store goes and Christine hating it there, you Brits excuse me if I envision Are You Being Served in my mind, since that's what I know best.

Dickens & Jones! I knew it was somebody & somebody. close but no cigar.

I imagaine that back in around 1967 it would have been a bit like "Are you being served" I wonder if she had to say "I'm free!"


Isn't it sweet that they sent letters?
