HE'D HAVE GOT MORE IF THEY'D NOT ABOLISHED THE HALF PENCE PIECE: As happens semi-annually, a semi-famous rock person has had a go at busking. This time it was Jonsonite Tory Rick Wakeman, pulling in fourteen pence in the centre of York. Rick is a bit surprised - he points out he once played Madison Square Gardens for five solid nights (and still didn't reach the end of the first song):

"They took a lot more notice than the crowd here."

Yes, but if Madison Square Gardens had had an Iceland offering six Birds Eye products for a fiver and a Peacocks with prices cut across the range, you might have found yourself struggling there, too, Rick.
