Dippy wins! Henry Winkler was only a few yards away from me last year and I didn't even know, and great-grand uncle Albert illegally married great-aunt Bessie - and he was a bigamist!
Over to you, Dippy!

Oh no, I was hoping it wouldn't be me.
Erm.....
1) My Godfather was Shakin Stevens manager sometime in the eighties.
2) My Grandad was in the film, the longest day.
3) My Mum worked in the school where The Fiennes Brothers were taught.

I don't believe your godfather managed Shakin' Stevens.

And I don't believe your Mum taught in the school the Fiennes brothers attended.

I'll take the last. It wasn't your grandfather in "The Longest Day".

Sigh. I bet he batted his long eyelashes over his gorgeous brown eyes when he asked her that. Okay. Here goes: My uncle was a high government official during the Nixon administration. I won the Best Actress award at the Texas State One Act Play competition in 1976. I carry an Irish coin in my wallet given to me by a sexy Irish musician I met in a bar in New Orleans.

I'll go with....you DON'T carry an Irish coin that was given to you by a sexy Irish musician you met in a New Orleans bar. (If you DO, I'll bet there's an interesting story there!!! )

Oh, Pixie, if I'd got here in time I'd have gone for that choice - and I agree, if it's true there MUST be a story there. 'Fess up, Judy!!

Frannie is correct ... I didn't win the Best Actress award in the State competition. I did win it at the District level, though! As to the sexy Irish musician who gave me the coin ... all I'll say is that I was 25, it was Mardi Gras and despite the fact that Irish Whiskey was involved, I remained fully clothed.
