Whats your claim to fame or little known fact about you. ?

Post by itsaintfunny »

Mine is as an extra in the remake of Brief Encounter with Sophia Laren and Richard Burton filmed in and around Winchester - as IO remember it Burton got in a huff because Sophia wanted me as her leading man but it was a very long time ago -mid 70's . :lol:

I reckon we have some better claims than that though.....

I cut the top off my thumb when I was three, my dad being home from work with his works vehicle drove me to hospital in his dustcart. Not sure many can claim that particular form of transport to A&E.

Claims to fame eh?.......so many..where to start?
Probably with the true ones!

Got on stage with Chuck Berry once
Bumped into, and shared coffee with Margaret Thatcher in a most obscure Cincinnati locale.....a cemetery.

Little known FACTS....well....I like to keep them little known.

When happily married with three kids being asked at a party what was the happiest moment of my life. No hesitation. “Being behind the goal at Wembley in 1966 when we won the World Cup.” Still happily married after 52 years.

I had a ****** next to Glenn Hoddle at Gatwick years ago, and then had a beer with him at the bar afterwards.
