Hardly recognisable now, he looks thinner + specs and stubble. (See him out and about every now and again). He went into the local shop to pay his paper bill and my neighbour's daughter, serving, said 'What name is it?'

Ah me, the younger generation. :D

I only recognised him in that photo because a friend of mine shared a flat with him in, I think, Shepherd's Bush around that time and he had photos of them both from then.

Looks like he could be with Robert Plant
I thought that was RP too. The bloke leaning on the bus shelter looks familiar too. A bit like Robert Palmer?

It takes a special kind of confidence to have a topless portrait of yourself on the wall.
