Good one Di! We all have a tentative connection to someone.......
I used to go to the same pub/ hang around in the same crowd as Bernie Taupin (Youngsters may not know that he was/is Elton John's lyricist)
OH went to school with the manager of Glasgow Rangers and the manager of the Dutch National team (ex-Celtic)
OH was also the road manager of 70's group Golden Earring - before they made any money (you know the original singers of Venus - 'you're my venus, you're my fire' etc)
OH and I sat and watched Bono walk right past us at JFK last week and we were both too knackered to say or do anything.......
and anyway he is related to No 1 son's girlfriend, so with luck and a fair wind and No1 son eventually making some sort of commitment to a woman...I might see him again at the wedding!
Just thought I'd share that with you!
Perhaps we need a 'My claim to fame' thread!
