Thread Name: Happy Birthday Rolf Harris (31 March - Age 80)
Subject: RE: Happy Birthday Rolf Harris
Rolf seems to have been very active in the UK media recently. Last week I saw him hosting the news quiz Have I Got News for You, followed the next day by a radio interview which I think was on BBC4. If I heard him correctly, Rolf was brought up in Wales - is this true, or did he possibly say New South Wales? As he's now living in Wales, perhaps he is Welsh by birth. On a personal note, in the mid-80's I was admiring a cartoon he'd drawn on the reception office wall of the Maidenhead Advertiser newspaper. As I said to my wife 'that looks like a Rolf Harris drawing', the great man himself entered the door!! Happy Birthday Rolf - you look and act like someone so much younger - must be the elixir of music!! By the way - is he really Australian??
