"Wha...how glad I am that this was refreshed as I missed it first time around. Where to begin...

Well, I and my dog were on the Kuka, Fran and Ollie show doing clever pet tricks with I was a kid and I met Bing Crosby on the steps coming out of the studio....what a thrill, my mother especially was never the same.

I was next up on open mic night at the Gate of Horn after Jose Feliciano (much older now, mind)...a very hard act to follow. I don't remember the first song I sang but came on strong with I Know You Rider after that...

And my pottery is sprinkled all over the globe, which still surprises me.

And I have a friend I visit often who lives in Putney, not very far from Ralph McTell. I probably came THIS CLOSE to seeing him on the High Street....
