A nice story for the front page

This was sent to me by coupe40 who wasn't sure how to post this himself and asked me to do it.

It is called "It's only rock and roll but I still like it"

Back in the mists of time'mid seventies actually;i worked for amidlands based rock band who deceided to have aphoto shoot for publicity handouts etc ;the theme for this was to be gangsters/great gadsby popular at this time.A local photographer and studio was booked he also reccomended a local model he knew which we agreed to as the band were not exactly photogenic!.On the day of the shoot i arrived with our guitar player a little early to find alotus elan with personal no/plate in the car park and our photographer uloading his gear from his mini and moaning that models were paid too much; ignoring him we entered the studio to find our model sitting on a band flight case and wow !she was stunning wearing aknee length dress slit to mid thigh showing her stocking tops ;stiletto heeled ankel strap shoes and black;as was the rest of her outfit;gloves she was a brunette cut in aclassic bob style but what blew me away was the St moritz cigarette she was smoking in afour inch black holder with some elegant style and obvious experiance;after introducing ourselves guitar player commented that jill was already changed into costume only to be told sharply that she was wearing her own cloths which were considerably more expensive than the outfit the band had supplied and that she would not be seen dead with the fancy dress style holder!and would use her own.The photo shoot was duly completed ;unfortunatly i have not got said photos ;and band retired to pub leaving me with jill the model and her flat battery lotus which as i also own a garage buisness was no problen;we then retired to a local restaurant where i spent an engaging evening lighing her cigarettes and learning that her holder use had come from her mother who had sported one since the fifties ;after the restaurant we went back to my flat for bourbon;st moritz and holder use the rest i will leave to your imagination ! Thirty five years later the band have been forgotten but jill still uses the black and other various styles of holder and still enjoyes st moritz but only at parties and social events.Oh yes i nearly forgot we married in nineteen eighty and she used a white holder at the reception .love coupe 40.
