Did you know Elvis had an identical twin?

[idiom]

Well, did you? I certainly didn’t until I started having to do a little Elvis research on the weekend. It’s funny the little things you remember isn’t it.


All i want for my birthday is a grey staffy. Well now you've got one!


Oh me oh my it's only the Elvis wardrobe!


Elvis has now left the building!

There I was on the weekend enjoying a beverage in the local hostelry when we had a call out of the blue asking if we could pull out our best ‘Changing Rooms‘ impression to help prepare for a new teenage bedroom which, after being constructed in secrecy whilst he was at school yesterday, would be ready for his birthday celebrations when he got back. After a little deliberation we agreed and this much we knew – it had to feature Elvis, a grey staffy dog and there was a little water damage to the wallpaper (from a shower upstairs) which had to have a little makeover. We only had a couple of days to prepare and then had to get it all done in the time it would take him to go to school and back…

Cheers

It's common knowledge he had a twin (died very young)

That Elvis dresser is really nice--I'd like one for myself. I bet he was pleased as punch. Well done.

If that's spray paint though you should go in there with some organic varnish to seal in the paint's VOCs. It's just not too healthy to sleep in a room with spray paint.

3 layers and you're sealed.

Cheers folks - @ tussyville - I will pass that onto the lady who commissioned it as she was asking as the best way to varnish it.

I really REALLY like that How Can I Tell Her stencil of yours. If I lived in the UK, I'd ask you to come over and put it all over my walls!

Wasn't his twin called Jessie Garon. And Elvis's name was Elvis Aaron.
I remember there used to be a band years ago called Jesie Garon or that had that name in the band name. Indie band.
That's all I know - or think I know. It might all be mis-remembered bollix.

Well done Coach! Jesse Garon was indeed his twin. Your mind isn't failing just yet...

Idiom, I think you've been hanging out in The White Horse too much.

Surely you can't hang out at a local boozer too much? Is that not what they are there for?

It was a good guess that's where you'd be then.

Did you decorate said boozer also?
