I dunno - if it is 'entrance', then it might mean the explanation is something to do with the entrance of Victoria Station, but then where does the 'affair' come in?
I can't say I ever pay much attention to Victoria Station when I'm there - I'm absolutely terrified of the Underground, so I'm usually having an embarrassing panic attack!

You can only get 'affair' if you think about Victoria's station - footballer's wives and all that .........
Is there a fatal attraction at the entrance to Vic Station???
Perhaps you're right after all, Spasm - Victoria Station IS a fatal attraction. DON'T GO THERE!!!!

Here are the places called Malaga:
- Málaga, Andalucia, Spain
- Malaga, Eastern Visayas, Philippines
- Malaga, California, United States
- Malaga, Ohio, United States
- Málaga, Santander, Colombia
- Malaga, New Mexico, United States
- Málaga, Escuintla, Guatemala
But something tells me it isn't a place.

In charge of explaining/rectifying mistakes/errors/misprints/plagiarism in connection with Messiah - however elementary they may be - and ensuring the correct penalties or forfeits are paid!!!
Oh dear - is that a bit long?
In charge of TITLES!!! (just as well, because you can see what happens when I start thinking of job titles .....)
Or SUB-TITLES?

Mmmm - so Coops is in charge of finding Derren's Seat every time he forgets where he parked it?
Now why do I have a problem with that image?

I think we should ignor the clues and go for the complete opposite

Malaga is also a type of sweet wine.

Is Malaga Greek for something? I'm sure it's swearing?

"Malaka" means "wanker" in Greek. At least that's what I was told.

Because Derren doesn't drive - he can't park anything anywhere!  |

Was Coops asked to book the plane tickets to Malaga USA and booked them for Spain instead?
(straws being clutched here......) |

It does indeed!!
Maybe the explanation is simpler than that - maybe there's a place in the entrance to Victoria Station that sells baguettes (thinking loosely of French!) that Mr. Coops is rather partial to... called something 'Affair'? Or maybe he has a love affair for a particular kind of munchie you can buy there?

| Some Victoria information site wrote: | Victoria
WHSmith (3 units NS), Boots (2 units SS), Whistle Stop, Upper Crust, Burger King, Victoria Kiosk, Le Croissant, Coffee Shop, Quick Snack, Café Select, Cafepreeso, AMT, Coppers Bar & The Victoria Tavern. |
Ah. That's buggered my theory. Unless the munchie he likes is from 'Le Croissant'!

I think there is a Delice de France at Victoria station.
Maybe he once spent his fare on a hot baguette?
EDIT: Maybe it's the croissant place I'm thinking of.
Although...there is also a Victoria coach station, which is a fair way apart and that has shops and cafés nearby.
