Thread Name: Where is Kell Watkins now?
Subject: RE: Where is Kell Watkins now?
The last I heard, Kel was in WA (that's West Oz to you USA people) but I've not heard from or about him in some years. The ABC (Oz) TV program Australian Story did a piece on a distressing event that involved his family and he 'went to ground' for a while but, like you, I hope he struts his stuff again.

For a while he was collecting "paper folklore' items (before photocopiers) and intended publishing a book about them. From the bits I knew he'd collected it would have been as good as the Opies (British) or Ian Turner & June Factor (Oz) on playground folklore.

We live in hope.

Cheers, Rowan
