Line du Jour

Like every other human I love love loved when James Corden took Paul McCartney to visit his childhood home. For whatever reason I'm not sure I took it seriously when Paul said this was his first time being back inside the house since he was a kid, but in reading Phillip Norman's book it's clear that as of 2015 he really hadn't, which was responsible for this gem about the house:

Paul has never seen its restored interior, though he’s paid several incognito visits to look at it from outside. Once, when he brought his son James, he was accosted by a small boy from a neighboring house. Not realizing who it was, the boy tried a hustle with all the Liverpudlian cheek of The Beatles in their prime: 

“Hey mister, gimme a quid and I’ll show you Paul McCartney’s house.”

Cheeky little git! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
