Private Notes
Mike attends a party and ends up spending the night with a magazine's features editor. And then her boyfriend. And husband. Or was it the milkman...?
Mike's attempts at keeping up appearances catch up with him when he runs out of excuses for stopping an old teacher dropping in to visit at his mansion block address. Luckily, a chance street encounter proves to be of use.
After a potentially sticky situation at a private members' club, Mike ends up doing the rounds at a nearby hospital. Will he pull a nurse, or just confuse her terribly?
Mike's shocked to hear that a doorman is about to retire, 35 years under his belt, with not so much as a handshake from his employer, and resolves to do something about it.
Charged with attempting to rob Peel Street Magistrates Court, Mike finds himself in front of a female who is not wholly disposed to his charms: the judge. He recounts a tale of window cleaners, sheep and orchestral picnics.
After befriending a girl in a library, Mike finds himself invited to meet her parents at the weekend - in disguise as the boyfriend she's just broken up with. Is he up to the challenge? And more to the point, is her ex-boyfriend?
After following an attractive young woman into an empty house, Mike Upchat finds himself playing the part of interior designer.
When Mike Upchat moves to California, he raffles his names and identities, effects, personality, and to some extent his reputation, to ... well, Mike Upchat. With a little help from a casual acquaintance, Mike polishes off his act - if not a plate of spaghetti bolognese.
After being moved on by the railway police and thrown out of Polly's Soho club, Mike delivers a 'Chinese' banquet to a flat on Park Lane. He's soon caught up in a male modelling fiasco.
When Maggie forgets Polly's keys, Mike enlists a tour bus full of Japanese tourists to help them get into the club in a timely fashion.
Maggie's homesick; she misses Birmingham, and her mum. Naturally, Mike offers to arrange transport, and is soon chasing single women around the streets in his borrowed bubble car!
After meeting a particularly well-spoken young lady who is far more comfortable with the more earthy side of life, Mike Upchat - aka the Pearly Prince of Poplar - finds himself playing a sort of reverse Professor Higgins...
As ever, a girl has caught Mike's attention. With a bit of 'help' from Polly and Maggie, he's almost engaged, married, divorced, and father to an expanding group of children. What kind of peculiar family has he become entagled with this time?
As a flock of Mike Upchats arrive at Polly's, it seems that the previous Michael had quite the enterprise going on with his raffles. Maggie has the perfect solution: the first of the bunch to arrive back with a woman on his arm will have exclusive right to the name.
