Fat

And: (b) he's from posh Reigate, not (as he professes) scuzzy Redhill and (b) he used to play trombone in a band called The Stomping Pondfrogs, whose main venue was a crap pub called The Panther. I know this because I lived in 'Redhill' at the same time he did. I told all this to Geordie who didn't give much of a fuck to be honest with you as we drove around, bored, trying to find Fatboy Slim's house. We started in Brighton, asked the locals some questions like 'do you know where Fatboy Slim's house is?', got steered on towards Hove, asked some more questions (i.e. the same one), triangulated all our new information, and then headed to a stretch of the Brighton Road by Shoreham Power Station. And we found it. And we photographed it. Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you Quentin Cook's house...
