Back in the 80s I worked at a factory in Aston where Derek Kevan used to deliver metal or chemicals or something (I forget what) and had many a chat with him at the drinks machine. Top chap.
A few years later, I worked with Nicky Cross' dad, who was a lovely fella.
A few years even laterer still I worked with Stacy Coldicott's dad.
I tell you people, I have lived a life.

I’m one off knowing famous people a lot - My FIL used to run a club in Perry Barr that Cyrille used to regularly attend. My Daughter is good pals with Paul Peschisolido’s daughter. My lad used to be mates with Dan Evans the tennis player. Ever the bridesmaid me.

The story in the family is my great aunt sold her house on Pennyhill Lane to Jeff Astle.
Never met either of them.

Ray Treacey bought me me a bottle of pop.
I once lent Asa Hartford 2 bob ( from my paper round money) and he still hasn't give it me back,
I fitted a new knob to Brendon Batsons gas cooker in 1980.
