Starstruck!

[Mrs Reject]

I was in me local corner shop this morning and who did I run into but.......Dennis Healey :eek: I was gobsmacked because it's a crap shop!!!
According to the shop assistant he lives in Alfriston a mile up the road and is often in the shop.
Even weirder and honest to God this is true, his daughter was my primary school teacher for a year when I lived in London just before we moved abroad. I remember her because it was around 1967 and she wore the shortest mini skirts I have ever seen! It must be karma or sommat!
He's looking well old these days and has lost loads of weight.
