mickn Posted 22 September, 2010 Share Posted 22 September, 2010 My eldest son had the dubious pleasure of playing darts there last night and guess who came in after the game against Leicester? He described him simply as a tramp lol. There was also a poor impersonation of it there as well. Bell and bugle were also in attendance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big John Posted 23 September, 2010 Share Posted 23 September, 2010 (edited) /\ me too, sort of. Anyway, I walked past the house where someone very famous used to live today. They are dead, had he been alive and drinking in one of the many pubs around here from which he had been barred repeatedly for outrageously gayish behaviour, most people over 30 would recognise him, not just his appearance but his unique voice and and manner. Clue 1 - he was male Clue 2 - he was gay Clue 3 - he had a drink problem Edited 23 September, 2010 by Big John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His old house is on the seafront here. Next: She used to live here with her partner. Famous for her role in a soap in which she had an affair with a chap who could be described as an 'ugly duckling'.

Big John Posted 25 September, 2010 Share Posted 25 September, 2010 Peter Glaze? Nope, good answer though as PG is up there as one of the least funny people ever. more clues: other jobs he did were; cabinboy , a coal-miner, waiter, and pageboy, a drummer boy in the Army where he was the flyweight boxing champion. He is a cult hero in Albania. NB It was not woolies that he worked for, just a local greengrocer, and he was just 13 yo at the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
