I'd be ashamed of myself if I acted like an idiot around any well-known people when and if I ran into them. <br /><br />I'm sure most of them (excluding the Kardashian mob and that mad Kanye West) want to be treated like normal people. They are human beings just like you and me.<br /><br />I probably have told you before a record producer in Nashville...and a successful one...Mark Moffatt (he was a guitarist in band himself at one point)...is an Aussie...and a Queenslander to boot. He and his brother grew up near a good friend of mine in the town of Maryborough..a few miles north of the town of my hometown, Gympie. They are still good friends although now all live distances away from each other; one between Brisbane and the Gold Coast and the other, Rob, Mark's brother lives in Sydney.<br /><br />Thanks for coming by. :)Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-88880915792037741242016-09-29T10:18:34.534-07:002016-09-29T10:18:34.534-07:00Again you thrill us with your roaring past.

Chamberlain was a very handsome fellow in his day! <br /><br /><br />Did you ever see the 1983 TV mini-series made from Colleen McCullough's novel - "The Thorn Birds" starring Chamberlain as the priest "Fr. Ralph de Bricassart and Rachel Ward playing "Meggie"? It was great...as was the book.<br /><br />I love fritters, too...and I think I might just make some for my lunch today.<br /><br />Thanks for coming by. :)<br /><br />Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-8525069289445164722016-09-27T08:56:42.406-07:002016-09-27T08:56:42.406-07:00My brain cell just spit out the name RICHARD CHAM...My brain cell just spit out the name RICHARD CHAMBERLAIN.<br /><br />sheeshlotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-13592952612667980182016-09-27T08:46:04.309-07:002016-09-27T08:46:04.309-07:00Fritters.

The colors alone dress up a plate.<br /><br />It's unbelievable to read of all names you drop. My only hand written note came from......oops......there when my brain cell. Now I'll spend days trying to remember who it was. He played Doctor Kildare, so it was obviously his agent's secretary who sent the note.lotta joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742978845913126675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-82643780241154392312016-09-26T20:16:04.422-07:002016-09-26T20:16:04.422-07:00Thanks for coming by, Lux...although I am a little...Thanks for coming by, Lux...although I am a little confused by your comment.

The West Indies's team, captained by Frank Worrell came here to Aus to play cricket in 1960/61. And, strange though it might seem, they visited Gympie for an exhibition match. A special record hop was held in their honour. Wes Hall and his mates danced and danced...and I got to meet him, albeit briefly. Sobers was there, too...but Hall was the star attraction. He was a memorable character.<br /><br />As for Savile...best wipe him of your name-dropping list, I reckon!<br /><br />No...this post wasn't "a straight lift"...this post is a little lengthier than my article...you might note. And Lee George has allowed me poetic license to steal her work!! So there, Mr. Pud!!! Without me, she'd be nothing!!!!!<br /><br />It's a pity you didn't get to meet David Bowie. I loved Bowie...and still do. I'd hoped that he would've come into my shop when he stayed at Noosa during one of his tours. I sensed he was in Noosa but when I mentioned my "sensing" I was told I was being silly...and then in the local paper a few days later it was revealed that Bowie had, in fact, snuck away for a day and night. He stayed in a unit on the ocean-front at First Point, in Noosa. I would still be in shock if he'd visited my store...how I wished he had! :) <br /><br /><br />Thanks for coming by. :) (And I'm sure it would've been a thrill to have met the Queen Mum, too...she was a grand lady)!

Amongst others I have met The Queen Mother (deceased), Jimmy Savile (deceased), the singer Lulu (twice), cricketers Gary Sobers and Wes Hall, Mick Ronson (David Bowie's guitarist) and British Labour politicians John Reid and David Blunkett. But the most illustrious human being with whom I have ever communicated is a wonderfully talented wordsmith from Tamborine Mountain, Australia. Her name is Lee George or "Georgy Girl" to her friends. She writes for "The Tamborine Times" and it is obvious to me that this blogpost was just a straight lift of her recent article in the September 22nd edition! How could you Ms Connection?
