Hi TSR,
Do you have a claim to fame?
HTML Code:1. This probably doesn't count but Oliver Cromwell was my ancestor. 2. Aaron Ramsey (Welsh Captain and Arsenal Midfield) went to my school.. I was in year 7 at the time.. if only I knew.. :-( 3. The Funeral Directors on Stella is outside my house, and Ruth Jones was on our portch talking to us.. will be seeing her when they film the next season :D
:P

Re: Your Claim to fame!
I don't really have anything to attribute my name to, but my Dad is very involved in the International music scene so I've met and dined with a lot of big people through that including Darrin Mooney from Primal Scream, Rick Drumm (ironically an excellent Jazz drummer) from D'Addario & Company, Frank Catalano (most feminine voice ever award goes to this guy) and the founder of Sax.co.uk (biggest UK sax retailer) used to be in my Dad's band.

Re: Your Claim to fame!My friend's husband used to live in the house where Fred and Rose West killed their daughter, is it the same one??(Original post by JBateman)
Well mine is pretty gloomy, but my Dad laid the floors in Fred and Rosemary Wests house. I heard they recently demolished the house because no one wanted to buy the house that was connected with serial murder, so all my dad's hard work was for nothing! -
