Both poppets. Beards all round. Ukulele and accordion and often a glockenspiel which also doubles as a curtain in the bedroom when it is not being a glockenspiel. Very rude and very heartwarming. Instruments which cost a million pounds, are from the Victorian era and don’t work are warmly welcomed into the family (egg.). Possibly a stuffed zebra onstage. Or, if Stuart can’t get one from brummiestuffingfarm because one hasn’t died in the zoo, a stork instead will do. As they have already got one of those. And it’s nice to stroke. Audience participation strongly recommended. Coin washing facilities available. And a Russian doll. Please insert here | | Record Label | unsigned | | Type of Label | None |
