Do you have a claim to fame ?

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

I have done a lot of acting in the past and some years ago I was entered in the prestigious Cricklade Festival. I played the part of Herr Bauerman who had been commited to a mental hospital for assessment as he had attacked three people for no apparent reason. It turned out that he had been part of the Nazi war machine and worked in a factory near Auschwitz and, when he saw people behaving like Nazis he went bersek. Our play was the 14th of 15 and I won best individual performance. I have acted in "The Crucible" in Limassol but, apart from the distance from Larnaca, I found there was a lot of bickering within the group. I hope that a Drama Group will open in Larnaca soon.

ok bubbles just a little.

our friend was the security officer when the boyfriend died for about 3 years ,while the solicitors sorted out the estate.

he found a blow up doll in the house, so we named her dolly. what 2 gays were doing with her is anyones guess?
dolly was taken out to all the local places of interest, and photographed. like outside the local court house sitting on the bench. a few stately homes in suffolk. the village green. so on and so forth. it was always his way of making sure the trust and solicitors didn't rip him off, for his payout which he was promised by john the boyfriend.

they also used to have some big barns on the estate. our mate the security guard went on to grow a large amount of green stuff in it. the electric bill was huge! not that he cared the solicitors paid all the bills for the estate and he was so stoned he didn't give a shit.

A couple of years ago a friend of ours, who was Peter Stringfellow's bank manager and who had done quite a few favours for him, took us to the club in London as a VIP guest! I just wanted to see what it was like (not a regular or anything)!

Peter (I call him Pete or 'P' for short 8) ) was there and made a huge fuss of the 4 of us - champagne all night!

The only dodgy bit (besides the naked girls pole dancing while you were trying to eat dinner :shock: ) was when Pete sent over a personal male stripper dressed as a....fireman!!! (my friend had a sailor) and after quite a lot of champagne my friend and I were laughing so much I think we upset the poor guys who seemed to take it personally! :lol:

Really good fun! 8)
