Back in the old days (98 - 99 ) when the internet was untainted by breadheads and you realy could download free stuff like the pam anderson tommy lee video etc I became a cyber stalker. I got hold of Tony Curtis's email address and every day sent him an email saying " i'me Sparticus" I also left his address on as many forums as i could find asking people to do the same.
About 2 years later he was interviewed on Parkinson and he said about this nutter with a british IP who keeps sending him Sparticus emails. He has me on block now and my emails dont get through to him, the selfish bestard.
Was that my 15 minutes of fame as promised by Andy Wahole?
Whats your claim to fame?

doro says
no, wearsiders
tyne - newcastle
wear - sunderland & durham
tees - middlesborough
MD tudor crisps were local to north only, hey were the best crisps you could get in the 70s and early 80s
I believe walkers bought them and nicked their best ideas, I think tudor were the 1st to use those foil bags rather tham plain placcie ones
advert was of a paper boy who 'persuaded' a fellow kiddie to deliver some papers up a tower block (was actually the rocket towerblock in dunston) in excange for a bag of tudor crisps
but
the lift was out of order
what a meanie *smirk*

[doro]

Picked up two completely contrasting actresses last year in the cab, Kathy Staff??, who played Nora Batty, and Tamzin Outhwaite. Both very nice ladies and not stuck up at all, and a few years ago I used to do some casual work driving a brand new stretch Lincoln, for a company based not far from Pebble Mill studio's in Brum. Drove Cliff Richard, Ronan Keating, Chris Evans, S Club 7 etc.
ohhh god do i have to admit this
i was on stage with Showaddywaddy at the night out in birmingham
