Does the White House have a Drive-thru?

i was at JFK's funeral too, i will never ever forget the white house swathed in black crepe and the riderless horse, blackjack. it was a cold and windy day, i was freezing, but stood there with my coat wrapped tightly around me. i knew i was living history. it's a chilling thing. ......

Ok,

In my 'wilder' days (years ago),

I was once in a night club in London and for reasons best left unmentioned I got a little angry and and ended up in a bit of a fight with a bloke and as it turned out the entire stag do he was on (about 12 blokes from what i remember :rolleyes: ),

anyway,

I was in the middle of being pummeled when I was dragged out of the melee as I turned round to lamp the bloke (I was in a fight after all) I realised that it was Simon Weston.

The thing is,

because Mr Weston had rescued me, the bouncers chucked the other geezer (s) out because they thought I was with him, and i spent the rest of the night talking to him and the bloke is a absolute star, very nice, very funny.

so my claim to fame is meeting a famous person because of me acting like an idiot in a night club. :-5

I am not like that anymore.

I worked with Jamie Lee Curtis. She's an amazing woman. Sensitive, kind, fun and wonderful. That's all anyone needs to know about her.

Did she bowl you over with gin breathe ?

Not even close.

I'd never want to be famous. It's horrible what gets said about them all the time. Drinking? Whatever. If that's the worst people have heard then she got off easy. She's one of the few actors I've worked with that I truly liked.

Years ago, the band I was in was given a guided tour of the Marshall amplification factory and we were introduced to Jim Marshall. Here's a pic of my Mom endorsing one of his products
