David Hepworth in The Guardian has reviewed Daniel Rachel's new book on The Beatles, which sounds interesting, but straight away annoyed me with inaccuracies about John Lennon's ability to throw a rock through Paul McCartney's window.
He quotes from the book...
In one passage the author wonders whether John really could have thrown a brick the 75 metres (246ft) it would have taken to break the front window of Paul’s home in St John’s Wood.
Now I admit l haven't measured the distance, but even my puny arms could manage that.
These kind of mistakes annoy me so much, so I'll probably give the book a miss.
Toodle pip
