Former Billericay owner Glenn Tamplin takes over Romford FC

Cake, rain etc.

Malcolm Hardee and The Greatest Show On Legs apparently stole a 5 foot pink Rolls Royce cake from Freddie Mercury's birthday party (where they were performing) and due to it's size left it in Malcolms front garden where it lay for a good 3 months.

This is of far more interest than Glenn Tamplin. Any info about the meteorological conditions that faced the cake during its three month tenure?

Freddie's Birthday is September according to Google, so def autumnal.
 
He lived in Lewisham (and never moved out of SE London, he owned the pub boat 'The Wibbley Wobbly' and died after falling into the Thames ones night. True Story.
Hold on. The Guardian and the Telegraph dispute your account of the cake being left out in the rain:
Hardee had a knack for PR stunts. He once stole Freddie Mercury's 40th birthday cake and donated it to the local old people's home.
Mr Hardee alleged that he had taken the huge cake after being refused permission to perform at the ceremony and then donated it to a nearby residential home

More to the point, did the cake contain a little person carrying a platter of coke? Surely the least you'd expect at Freddie Mercury's birthday party.
 
Hardee's book - I Stole Freddie Mercury's Birthday Cake - is worth a read if you get a chance. He used to take part in a mate's quiz night in Greenwich.

Don't bother voting...it's not official or anything. This is the Twitter feed, I believe, that said we only got a big crowd at home to Billericay because it was Billericay!
