Eat biscuits, of course! 

Why did The Beatles really want to film a ski scene in Help ?

  

So they could smuggle back to England the crisp, pure Austrian snow, which they were frequently sniffing.

 

What was John’s opinion of the “17/beauty queen” rhyme?

In the early weeks of August 1969, George Harrison brought his newly acquired MacBook pro with latest ProTools and a bunch of cool plugins loaded into it. What tracks of their last album ever recorded together, “A bee growl”, were recorded using this new stuff?

‘A Big Row’ (the title track), ‘You Know My Fame (Look Up My Twitter)’, and ‘The Long And Whingeing Song’.

Depending on how much kaleidoscope your eyes are.

What was Pete Fonda’s reaction when he first knew John was using his phrase “i grow what is going to be a beard” in The Beatles’s worldwide hit “She sells seashells”?

Her name was Dear (obviously) and she belonged to George Martin, who (also obviously) wrote the song. Paul just liked it so much that he credited it to Lennon-McCartney, which is why John never liked the song. 

What original owner of Friar Park inspired George to write Here Comes The Sun ?

(Sorry, @50yearslate, my computer hates me and deleted the question for some reason).

Sir Frankie Thesun. The day he handed over the keys of Friar Park to George, he became inspired to write a song about the excitement of acquiring his new property! 

Give an example of one of Ringo’s tweets from the 60s, complete with emojis.
