In 1968 The Beatles lived a strange adventure aboard a weird vehicle. What was that adventure about, and why did they use that vehicle?

Offline The adventure was looking for Martha, because she had run off. The vehicle was John’s psychedelic Rolls Royce, which was used because John wanted to show it off to all the sheepdogs in town.
Where did they eventually find Martha?

The George penned “Yoko Claus” about George accidentally leaving his digestive out on Christmas eve…
However, what gifts did Yoko Claus leave George behind in the song that cheered him up (or should I say cheered him down 
)?

Why didn’t the Beatles record the last Christmas Record all together?

Original plan was that The Beatles, along with Yoko, Linda (with little Heather in tow,) Allen Klein, John Eastman, and their secretaries would just record a day-long business meeting and earmark the funnier bits to edit together, then add a generic greeting message on top. But the plan fell apart when George and Yoko separately vanished during a tea break; ultimately, the meeting broke up early. The morning did produce a nice impromptu version of the old Elvis standard “Blue Christmas” (with all present, including George Martin, contributing vocals, but sadly, copyright clearance wasn’t granted.
What was John’s kick against modern jazz?

Offline False. On every third Thursday of the month, John and Paul would become mortal enemies and have a grand, terrifying, death-defying song-write-off. Many were the hotel rooms, back gardens, booths at Abbey Road , etc. left forever changed by witnessing these events.
The rest of the time, though, they were the best of friends, they were the worst of friends…!

Offline There’s technically no wrong answer to that, but my honest opinion is below.
Oh… gosh. 1970 was a bad year for Beatle ‘dos. Ummm… I’d say Paul, though, he was transitioning into full-on woeful 70s mullet by that point.
Carry on…

One of Ringo’s hairs was a violent criminal who committed armed bank robbery in 1970, so Ringo. Metropolitan Office of the London Police, not willing to cause The Beatles and Apple any embarrassment, sat on their evidence until Ringo had the offending hair removed by Bioletti, the barber, after which it was quietly swept up and placed under arrest.
