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.

"why does everybody call me big 'ead"
I'd make it smaller if I knew how.

With Simon's expert coaching I have managed to reduce the size of the photo.
Only took half an hour and one divorce
