Just for fun as we've been serious with forum finance and obituaries of late.

Have you ever been told you resemble someone in the publc eye?

How I would love to make the Old Hertford Girls swoon by telling them I look like Tom Cruise or George Clooney! Sadly the best I can do is Roy Cropper from Coronation Street.

Any others?

Well, someone recently told me that I look like Alan Titchmarsh.

I don't . At all. The person in question had probably had a few......

I hope that those forum members who have met me will back me up!

That bloke off the old grey whistle test, I couldn't walk past the telly at uni in the 70s when he was on.
Apparently I sound like him too.
Senior moment: I can't remember his name.

Barabra Dickson. When I take my specs off.

First noticed in 1975 when I had my hair permed for my 21st birthday and she was duetting with Elton John.

Has happened again from time to time.

I wish I could sing like she does.

Mick Jagger, when younger.

Even persuaded a rather attractive young lady at a party many moons ago that I was his brother !

I'll try to find a photo from the time, I hope the resemblance isn't too strong.

I'm begining tor regret ever mentioning this.

This was taken in 1977, 5 years after leaving school, the hair was longer at Uni.

Is there any chance of magnifying this AKAP ??

"why does everybody call me big 'ead"

I'd make it smaller if I knew how.

(no comments about actresses and bishops please).

With Simon's expert coaching I have managed to reduce the size of the photo.

Only took half an hour and one divorce
