Bob and his 'bloody bugle' (c) Lemmy
Speaking of Lemmy, he was famously fired for doing the wrong drugs.  Once he was gone, the rest of the band felt safe to indulge in their favourite mind-altering substance: Pernod!  Alan Powell is trying to look nonchalant because he's peed in the bottle, knowing that Rudolph has yet to pour his tipple...
As Bob Calvert used to work in a tyre shop in Ladbroke Grove, he decided one day to introduce Messrs.Turner and Rudolph into Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. 

It worked all too well - Rudolph left the band to found the highly successful 'Kwik Fit' chain of tyre and exhaust
shops, of which he is still a Director.  Nik occasionally pops into the Camarthen branch on a Saturday to help out when they're short-staffed, but won't give up his normal Saturday job at Tesco due to low pay!

This Just In!
