"This is bollocks!"
Celeste and hauled herself onto the bonet of Rogers Van as she heard the guys groaning.
"I'll think you'll find it's counter clockwise John," commented Brian "Oh is it? Thank you Brian! Would you like to do it? Please feel free" Growled John
"No no no! Your skin a good job,"
"We've sold out every pub south of Glasgow and I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere eating a ham sandwich!"
"Maybe if your van wasn't so shit we would be," Celeste muttered
"Trouble is we're just not thinking big enough," spoke Freddie
"What do you have in mind Fred?"
"An album!"
"We can't afford an album,"
"Oh, we'll find a way. How much do you think we could get more this van?"
"I hope your joking," Roger said with a mouth full of bread.

That following day, Queen found themselves inside a studio that was paid for by most of their wages and quoting Roger 'a perfectly good van'.
Freddie couldn't quite get his notes how he wanted them so the process was taking longer.
Celeste and Mary sat on the sofa, fanning themselves from the heat.
"Don't you think I sound like shit?" Freddie Asked the room.
"No, it's good," replied Deacy
"Do you wanna try it again?" Celeste Asked RT
"Sure, yeah. Sure, it's your money. Literally."

"Sounds a lot better," complimented John with Celeste nodding in agreement.
"We need to get experimental," Brian Suggests
"Trying bouncing the ya left from right from the ah-ahs," she comments
As the recording played Celeste along with the boys grinned.
"Now dead centre for the last," said Brian
"And the blast it!" Roger shouted
"Yes!"
In celebration, Roger grabs ahold of Celeste spinning her around.
"That's good right? Dow we have time to stack a few more?" Celeste asks
The studio opens at 8 so we've got 30 more minutes,"
"Les Go then!" She laughs bounding into the recording area.
