Adele has bought Rambo’s old house in Malibu.

“Never thought I’d buy Stallone’s nice view!” she said.

That was its sole purpose, surely?

I have! Boats, maccaritas and lamb!

I am! Boats, maccaritas and little lambs... What's not to like? (Well, Paul wouldn't like the lamb bit, but it isn't Monday, so...)

Thank you!!! Diolch .

I can now reveal that as soon as Paul started strumming those beautiful introductory chords, she went, 'Oh my God, yes! I do know this! Wow!'

She is 32.

Paul McCartney sitting on a fence on his farm in Scotland, singing Mull of Kintyre with his guitar, wife Linda in the background walking from their white farmhouse, which has green wooden doors.

So I played her Mull of Kintyre.

The question for you is, had she heard it? Or was my brazen confidence unfounded after all?

YouTube video by PaulMcCartneyVEVO Wings - Mull Of Kintyre

I was telling a former student of mine (we are now friends) all about Paul McCartney on Friday, and I mentioned Mull of Kintyre.

Never heard it, she said. Never heard of it.

You'll know it, I said, all smug, and with brazen confidence founded on absolute certainty that she would.
