Not content wi his Che T-shirt, Elvis casts an envious glance tiwards the Ghinga Chav, wearing Mike Skinner top, sov ring and tin i warm lager.

True story: when she was about 14 or 15, Clare was hanging about the town near the clock with some of her pals when Elvis arrived and began chatting them up, totally not recognising Clare. Clare strung him along until she dropped the "Do you no recognise me? I'm Yan's wee sister" bombshell. Apparantly it was the first time he was lost for words.

Yeah, Yan & I met him up at the St Andrews Church (site of the famous crash) while waiting for the Grange to head along to the Dougie. I also talked to him outside Binnz's old house while waiting for the main procession to arrive.
