Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.

My pal has inherited a Hammond organ and he cannot identify the exact type. Hammonds online are a bugger as they either go for tens of thousands or next to £0. It has a drum/ percussion bit like "Media Dreams" by Sun Ra (the black part on the left.) Anyone know owt??
