	YankeeDisc SUBS When in doubt.......accelerate........ Member since Dec 2010 734 Points	*The Beatles* - Please Please Me on CD I was around in 1963, a young teenager, doing a morning and sometimes an evening paper round......it's a Friday evening, and The Beatles are on D'Telly that night, and I'm showing another youngster the paper round on the Stockwell Studley estate, in S. London which I had been covering for the boss, until a replacement could be found. I'm a veteran paper-boy of 14 and this kid of 13, the son of Italian parents who owned a corner Cafe, just isn't getting it......either he's stupid or just lazy. I get more and more het up at the lack of progress we're making delivering the evening newspapers, so as we deliver the last of the papers to a five or six storey block of flats, rather than get the two-man lift back down, I run and jump down the stairs, much quicker than the lift......6 or seven concrete stairs at a time.....and I come unstuck, I leapt down a half flight of stairs.....and broke my right ankle!! Only I didn't know I had fractured it, I had never broken any bones before that time, and although in a lot of pain, I continued on, we were just about finished the round anyway, and we rode our bicycles back to our homes, with me pedaling with my left leg only. All I wanted to do was to see The Beatles, and I ended up coming home from Hospital next day in an Ambulance, with my right leg in plaster from my tootsies up to just below my knee... There's A Place Always loved John and Paul's close harmony on this song............from the album. Edited by YankeeDisc on 9th Aug 2019, 8:37 PM
