Saturday Night and Everybody's Having Fun

The Bosuns Locker breaks its last funky beat this Saturday. I’m proud to have been part of the Bosuns unique make up for 13 years or more, playing in bands ‘Entitled’, ‘Unit 13’, and ‘Bugga’ plus dj’ing as numerous acts, 4foot&choppy, Freeweelin, Austin Powers and Abba tribute nights; all were great fun. Also great fun was working with all the millions of staff that have passed through the door but most of all working with Nigel Waller (owner), one of the most outrageous and original characters in the world...such a class act is Nigel that I started to write a soap opera about him and his nightclub. The series (The Locker) was based on true events from the club, so of which are so unbelievable they couldn’t be included even in the script.

On a much sadder note, Norman Walker aka Nigel Waller was due to be played by Dominic Knutton who died last week. Dominic was the only person I know that could have pulled off such a flamboyant character, I hope Dom is now playing his Basouki and Penny Whistle some place better. Keep ironing Dom.

To the future then, good luck Nigel with the Bosuns V3.1, onwards and upwards...quite literary!!!
