I know a guy named John Lewis. He has nothing to do with the department store called John Lewis, of which we have one here.

John and another mate Wayne were stopped by police here in MK in the 1990s one late afternoon. I wasn't with them, I was in a pub in Newport Pagnell, it was the two of them in Wayne's car. They were in the city centre, where the John Lewis department store is. Wayne's surname is Kerr.

The officer asked their names. John told them ''John Lewis'' and Wayne told them ''Wayne Kerr''.

It could so easily have been a cheerful, quick, routine stop. But no. The police had to cuff them and wait on the radio for confirmation - which eventually led to the lads turning up to the pub a round late.

I'm sceptical that you even knew a John Lewis or especially a Wayne Kerr but I really did go to school with the original Gordon Bennett (high5) yeah i know thats prob not a thing

I was expecting a tale of wallpapering. Misleading titles are the worst.
Well, maybe not quite as bad as pancreatic cancer, but still.
Pretty bad.
