Other times Wolverhampton came up
According to my source John Lepton missed his man and his epic ride took him to Scotland before he realised that the trail had gone cold so in that instance he sort of overshot his mark a little bit. Because he was so fast so he was probably going by the average time he was told. He probably thought he was in Wolverhampton and then went around and he was in Scotland. I've got to think about a great horse racing bet.

I could have told him where to get tomatoes in the West Midlands. Where? There's a nice big morrisons in Wolverhampton. Yeah. He could have saved $20 and a £400 fine from Walsall Magistrates Court. Ah, Walsall. I don't know that as well.
