I've had my share of 15 minutes-es of "local" fame when I lived in Whitby, N Yorks, because I used to do a lot of acting and singing at the Spa Theatre and got me picture in t'local paper a lot. National fame has, so far, eluded me but when I write that Best Seller, well one never knows, do one?

My late husband, who came from Bradford, used to swear he was in the old film "Room at the Top". He said there was a shot of Laurence Harvey on a Bradford bus and that he (my husband) was filmed while getting off the said bus. I saw it 3 times but I never saw HIM. He said he was only 18 at the time and I wouldn't have recognised him. Hmmmm!
