VEDDER IN THE GRANNY FLAT

Those of you who recall Fresh Fields, Julia McKenzie and Anton Rogers sitcom, will also remember that they had built a flat at the end of the garden for Hester's mother - sometimes they'd have a shot of the old lady peering out from behind a net curtain at the big house with all its antics going on inside. This image comes to mind with the discovery that apparently Johnny Ramonebuilt some sort of shed in his garden for Eddie Vedder to live in.

I mean, we can see why you wouldn't want Vedder in the house - he could have a brand new DFS sofa unsuitable for human seating within an hour and a half - but why would you convert your outside toilet for him to live in? And despite Johnny's death, Vedder still turns up to sleep in there - pushing a supermarket trolley with his stuff in it, we'd imagine:

"He set it up so I could visit and stay there.

"I remember reading that Frank Sinatra did that for Sammy Davis Jr. So I felt proud to be Johnny's Sammy."

Does Eddie know the degree of contempt in which Sinatra held Davis?
