If itīs so private, why park it in the STREET? The caption says this is a picture of Miss Aileen Mac
Carthyīs private ass. Iīm glad I donīt have to make this stuff up.I have no idea what "Phil the Fluterīs Ball" refers to, but some of the suggestions Iīve heard around the Archive offices this morning are priceless.

Bill Burns explains the mystery.] On loan from the collection of Margaret and Jonathan Skean (see Links page)
