many many many years ago I was mistaken for Julian Cope. I was at a party and "chatting" to a young lady upstairs and a ladder appeared at the window. It was her friend who genuinely thought I was him. |

I have been told I look like Petula Clarke, am not too sure about that, but I hope I look as good as she does when I am 81. |

When I was a teenager and then young woman I was likened to Glynis Johns, it felt uncanny when I watched her in Miranda and a Danny Kaye film, then Mary Poppins as we both aged. She was a lot older than me "of course". Is she still alive? I haven't heard of her in years. |
