    I appeared on the Wide Awake Club in 1987 with my impressive collection of Corgi/Matchbox cars.  Yes, I have a WAC Pack.  And yes, a VHS tape does exist...

    Missing a trick here - find her - remind her you saved her life, get her to pay all your buy ins from now on!

    Seriously - wonderful story - helping a human being like this is unbeatable imo.

    I was runner-up in the 1980 UK pool championships. I've also played John Parrot, Alex Higgins and the late John Spencer at snooker.

    Surely appearing on the Wide Awake Club comes a pretty close second?  Even if I didn't get to play Mallett's Mallet :-(

    AS A YOUNGSTER I PLAYED FOOTBALL , BADLY . MY VERY FIRST GAME WE LOST 16 - 0 . I SCORED 2 OWN GOALS . IN THE SECOND HALF , I HAD TO REPLACE OUR INJURED GOALIE , I NEVER TOUCHED THE BALL ONCE IN 20 MINUTES , EXCEPT TO PICK IT OUT OF THE BACK OF THE NET . THIS WAS PLAYING FOR OUR 2ND TEAM .

    THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND , OUR 1ST TEAM PLAYED AGAINST THE SAME TEAM WE HAD LOST TO AND BEAT THEM 16 - 0 AWAY FROM HOME !!!!

     I have spent over 10 years doing am-dram with starring roles in many shows. But my biggest highlight was appearing in Hornblower. Where in a 2 minute scene i die 7 times.

    Filmed in Menorca? I was probably there if so - I used to do some work for the diving company used for all the underwater scenes. Small world!
