Juicy Lucy

A band I haven't heard for more than forty years, and whose name I had forgotten:

.

I've just remembered that a Miss Lucy was a teacher at the primary school I attended between 1963 and 1967. She was known as 'Juicy Lucy'. She married Mr Mullins, a jowly, red faced man who favoured a hairstyle that would have caused concern before the war. We feared him not because we were insufficiently developed to counter a wit that could only cut a child of eleven or younger but because he found pleasure in picking his nose, rolling the product of same into a ball and flicking it, without warning, at whomever he had singled out.
