This album is dedicated to Willie, Johnnie and Robbie

Thanks to everyone who worked long and hard in the sweatshop, especially James Cassidy the undisputed "People's Champion", Frank, Davey, Foss, Robin and Kevin (Sunshine in Leith ?) for always believing the shot was possible and never leaving me behind the 8 ball. Moira and Steve for finding needles in haystacks, chalking the cues and living on the crumbs of magic cookies. Martin Stainton for looking after the buttons, Robert White for unravelling the threads, Yatta (the body double !) for the mannequins, the mirrors and the shop displays, Connie Moest for the catalogue (We all love you really Cloggie, more read wine anyone ?), Jim Houston for the umbrella, Rob "Barnet" Ayling for pointing out the Emperor's Clothes and helping me weave the new cloth, (You're hired !). Lawrence and Keith (HM) for the nightshifts and the refined wine, Mark and Julie for the colours, they never fade (but no flourescents please !), to veryone in the Comany World for the support and loyalty, the faith and commitments and for ever believing in the cunning plan. And finally to my family who as always helped me find a hold on the thread even when it seemed lost.
