Actually, there is one thing I never understood about Mick's book (which is great fun to read, by the way). If he was so determined to bring out all the drama and write a true kiss-and-tell story, willing to tell the world about his affair with Stevie and Lindsey's alleged outbreak against her in 1987, then why did he not say a word about Christine's affair with Martin Birch in the early 1970s, that is, while she was still married to John. There is this one paragraph in the book, where Mick describes how a drunken John was chasing Chris who had to seek shelter in Mick's hotel room that night. But the lady herself is the only one who is being portrayed as a true "English Rose". I never knew about the affair with their engineer until I read Bob Brunning's book (which was very boring otherwise).
