Are you related to anyone famous?
« on: July 14, 2018, 04:49:58 PM »
This forum has been a bit overly primed for drama lately and I thought that this place would do well with a bit of a distraction.

Are any of you people related to anyone famous?

The only person I know that I am related to that has any claim to fame is this fella.

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

My grandfather was a well known musician, widely known as the best string bass player in Australia for many years. Of course he wasn't all that well known outside of the music industry, but as a kid I did see him on TV sometimes.

I'm not actually related to Tom Jones. He's just a guy who, I have it on good authority, was almost as good at shagging as I am.

My grandfather-in-law was an actual king, but not a blood relative of mine so it doesn't really count.

You don't count? Don't be that hard on yourself. Others will do it for you, no doubt.

I am indifferent to Jo. There were better and worse Aussie Pollies. But my Great Grandfather was a Senator and at one stage an Acting Prime Minister. That will do me.
