Curious things seen on the brief trip to the Deli-from-helli to get lunch: (#84 in an ongoing series)
Opposite the deli, there’s a BT service van, with a card stuck on the window which reads “visiting 142a Grazelle Road,” but in the front seat is a man in a uniform with his feet up on the dashboard.
And he’s playing a bass guitar. He’s really giving it some, as well: Big ba-dooooow-ing in a Mark King style. The windows are shut so I can’t hear if he’s playing along to something or whether this is a solo, but when I leave the sandwich shop, five minutes later, he’s still going strong.
This raises the following questions:
- Does this man actually work for BT, or is he along for the ride?
- If he works for BT, does he bring along his bass guitar whenever he’s out on a job?
- Are there, in fact, a trio of musicians in the back of the van, backing him up on guitar, drums and keyboards?
The world is a strange place.
