In the 80s I saw a Heart info service mailout that listed fans looking for pen pals. One of them was called, unforgettably, Misty Risk. #totp #totp88

First Friday here, first Top Of The Pops sick note in.
Been struggling with my various ailments for a while now so am headed for my pit for a few hours. Probably catch the repeats.
Enjoy all.

Erasure performed Ship of Fools on #TOTP88 -the song was #6 in the charts which is where it peaked, quite often a performance saw the song go down the next week.
