The Likely Cads

FRAIL BROKEN hearts - oh how I can sympathise. That divine Olivia Newton-John, what a damnable time the girl must be having these days.

The strip of a wench is drying her tears on some tropical island after finding she had misplaced her trust in an affair of the heart.

What of the fiendish blaggard that betrayed her you may ask? What indeed!

The young man, trading under the unlikely name of Lee Kramer, and who was the young songbird’s manager, is blaming those oh so convenient “pressures of work” for the break up of their little love nest. But it’s not him that’ll be doing the pining.

You must realise, Livvy, that some men are just born cads.

And some women are almost as fickle! Take that Lynsey de Paul for instance, I doubt if she even knows what a tropical island looks like. Ringo Starr, it would appear, has vanished from her daydreams in just a flash of those flapper eyes, and the pouted lips are now for Bernie Taupin. He’s been showering the little lady with bunches of red roses but which one of them will have to watch out for the thorns? Yes, life’s not just honeysuckle, you have to take the lemons as well.
