Hey that reminds me of my one attempt to gamble big!

Before this record was released in 1997 it was played on Mark & Lard’s evening show on Radio One. It made such an impact it ran up huge sales as a pre-order, running into tens of thousands. I was so convinced it was going to make it to number 1 I went into Ladbooks in St Mary’s Road and tried to put a grand on it making number 1 in the first week after release.

The manager said he’d phone head office
fuckers wouldn’t give me a price
said they didn’t do pop-music bets and they hadn’t a clue about the record. I should have tried other bookies but was discouraged and didn’t bother.

The next week we sat glued to the radio for Sunday’s chart run-down and sure enough “Your Woman by White Town” went straight in at number 1.
