Taken from Daily Express 13th June (I think): "Suggs, the lead singer of Madness, has been disconsolate about the setback affecting the career of Nutty Boy, the greyhound bought by the Eighties pranksters during a bleary-eyed moment at a charity auction. 'We've had some bad news.' sighs Suggs, 40. 'Nutty Boy was injured in training recently. He cut his paw and was off the track for a few weeks, but he will be back to full fitness in the near future.' Concerned about Nutty Boy's health, I call Mick Puzey , who tarins the skinny mutt at Walthamstow dog track. 'He ran third last Wednesday in a race at Romford,' Mick informs me. 'He got a bit dehydrated, but he's fine.' Earlier this year Nutty Boy, aged two, chalked up three victories in his first three starts before being promoted to races out of his league and 'losing his way a bit' as his trainer explains. ' The trip to Romford was to freshen him up, and he will be back in the traps at Walthamstow either tomorrrow night or Saturday.' Should Suggs belt out a few verses of Our House, I'm sure a suitably startled Nutty Boy will accelerate past the electric hare to victory." ------------- Apologies for the rather naff final paragraph (mind you it was The Express!) and thanks to my 97 year old Gran for finding the article!
