scor46 I had a glass of wine with Bryan Ferry on table 69 in The Sun and Doves. I used to cut his grass and hedges in another life and Roxy Music was the first live band I ever saw at Newcastle City Hall in 1974. So we had a lot to chat about...


A glass of sparkling water will get my autograph anytime.

But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order.
