Default Focus RIP [was RIP Wickes]

Doctor Drivel ) gurgled happily, sounding much like

It was sexy system for the time - pure sex. 1980.

I recall they found it difficult to rent space out as the evil
Thatcher had got in power and all went pear shaped with the country.


Because, of course, Thatcher's '80s were renowned as being a time when the
thriving economic powerhouse that was Britain-in-the-70s started to slide
into moribund unemployment, and entrepreneurial skills were left out in the
rain...
