"New £112m Royal Shakespeare theatre to open its doors this week, with actor's ashes buried in the foundation"

... back in about 1978, when I briefly experienced a period without a home of my own, I sometimes used to pass Ian and Maroussia on the stairs :) they were off on tour and I was moving in as a temporary guest in their central London flat :)

... my beautiful great big Yamaha CS30 synth lived in Ian's flat for awhile in the late 70s :)

... I watched the first transmission night of Channel 4 upstairs in their south London house. I was on mushrooms I think :)

... Ian and Maroussia came to see my band performing in the early 80s. Was it the gig at the Broadway in Hammersmith?

... he used to make me laugh :)

Uni

when I eventually got round to enjoying 3 years of Westminster Uni, 1998-2001, I climaxed by HANDwriting my final year's thesis while I was in a prison segregation cell, Brixton, continuously naked for a month, for the duration of the Uni Xmas Holidays :)
