Huncote Annie, De-a-fun, (Deaf UN), Tommy Tac, (Thomas Arthur Coulson), Weighty, were other names that I remember my father talking about.
I realise that I am asking a lot but would there be any chance of you doing me a copy of the 2 cd set that you mention, I will pay for any expences (within reason of course), I am a renowned (tight) old devil.
