You're Nicked!
I am indebted to my very good friend, Mr Charlton Hofie for the above photograph taken during the Sports and Social's last karaoke night. The gentleman in the photograph is Nick (like Pele he has no surname), the bar manager of the Sports.
From time to time the Sports is a ferocious place and Nick's serenity calms everyone. During Nick's performance it became abundantly clear why when not pulling pints (slowly) Nick beats his drum and is not a lead singer. However, the best thing about the photo which led to me buying Charlton a pint in gratitude is the lyrics on the screen. "ARE YOU LONELY JUST LIKE ME?"
Hey Nick it's karaoke not a support group meeting! Maybe next time you could go for a bit of Akon? All together now (inhale helium) ♫"I'm so lonely (so lonely), I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely). I have nobody (I have nobody). To call my own (to call my own) girl"♫
