I bet there aren't many people over 40 who can't remember either the adverts or eating the turkey breast roast!

evil stuff

I met mathews at the dry dock in Lowestoft harbour where his yacht was in for repairs. I was photographing the vessedl, not knowing who the owner was. He came up to me and started shooting the trees about general things, boats, photography, Noirfolk. He didn't seem to fit the image of his ads at all. It was a pleasant couple of hours. The yacht was the size of sa corvette and must have cost millions, but he didn't seem that bothered about it.

His funeral should be interesting. Gas mark five, 1/2 hour per pound? Will Jamie Oliver be there?
