My eldest son performed on stage with Ms Dynamite on Saturday night. I was supposed to go too but I was cold

That is interesting, is he a session musician?

No, she's a black rapper!

Gretchens' oldest son is a female black rapper?

It's very complicated.

It's even more complicated than that!

Last weekend he was on stage with KStewert - featuring in her next video too I think.

I'll try and find some photos/video. Although, it's not for the faint hearted.

I was in a Sky Sports advert with Sir Clive Woodward. Not sure if he counts as famous by today's standards? But it was good fun, although I did have to wear an Ireland rugby shirt

Still, post World Cup 03 with the Lions coming up (if I remember correctly), it was a cool moment at the time. He did some studying at our school when he was getting into football coaching.

Would you say that your son is still a Kid and believes in Karma?

I shared a lift with Sophie Raworth this week. She was telling a somewhat scurrilous story about a fellow BBC employee.

I knew actor Morgan Paull who played the Blade Runner killed in the opening few minutes of the film. Morgan had a sign outside his house with a picture of a handgun and 'Protected by Smith & Wesson' written on it it. Morgan was a top man





Morgan's wife was previously married to the wonky-eyed western actor Jack Elam, who I never met





Pistonhead claim - I once had a passenger ride in Lady Di's Mercedes Brabus or AMG 600SL when she returned it to MB. It was hideously fast

Is this a tenuous link to an '80s number one hit? In which case, possibly?

What I mean is, he's a boy who is a bit of a Chameleon...

This reminds me that Jon Moss out of Culture Club, went to my BiL's stag do.

If any PH'ers subscribe to Popbh, I am 'The Silver Fox' in this week's mailshot, told to F*** Off by Jeremy Clarkson at a Neil Young gig a few years ago.

Fair do's, I'd tell me to F** Off too, if asked for a selfie whilst en route to the bogs and busting for a slash!

Think I worked it out. I went with there buddy Kid Karma but it was actually my second guess.

That's if I'm right now!

It really wasn't! Recently went through the wringer with Ofsted, I'm led to believe half the staff were sacked, the name and uniform were all completely changed.

Still, I'll always know it as Wye Valley, why bother?

You realise you met him briefly at the Modified Nationals...?

[pingu393]

Just remembered from the Man From UNCLE thread that Charles Bronson and David McCallum were married to my Auntie's best friend at school.

How's that for tenuous?
