Do I Have a Double?
 

Sainsbury's in Warrington yesterday.

Checkout lady: Hello, how's Steve?
Me: Sorry? Steve who?
Checkout lady: Aren't you Steve's sister?
Me: No.
Checkout lady, looking a bit suspicious: Have you got a brother?
Me: I've got 2 but you don't know them.
Checkout lady, a bit sniffy: Are you sure?
Me: They both live in Blackburn. You wouldn't know them.
Checkout lady: You look like Steve and you have the same mannerisms. He's small, like you, and he's not very well.
Me: I'm sorry about that but both my brothers are tall and very healthy.
Checkout lady, obviously a bit "put out": You look just like him and I know he has a sister. I only wondered how he was.
Me: Well I'm not her, sorry, I can't help you.

I'm still not sure she was convinced. Have you ever been mistaken for someone else?

Dont know if I have a double, but I have an appalling memory, so when people 'recognise' me, I generally just end up nodding and agreeing and bluffing my way thru a conversation, then walking away very confused wondering if a i do actually have a sister called sue who walked the high wire at a local chimpanzee show ( bloody sure i dont tho!)pmsl

yes was once dragged out of Raistricks foundry one morning cos some swine had robbed the mill on "Moscow Mill St." the night before, when they asked me where i was- i said Pickups Arms, which totally convinced the plod it was cashy.:mad: held me about 4 hrs then released me without charge, but saying they would get me in the end. about 3 months later was home reading the observer, an there was a guy charged with the said offence n found guilty, was not a happy bunny,as they never told me/apologised or owt, apparently he was my double, anyway as he lived in the same area as me, i had to find out for meself, took a couple of weeks,but honestly could not see any resemblance:confused: and there was even less later.:D

People often look at me and say "You look just like George Carlin." (Remember "Seven Dirty Words You Can't Say on TV?" (And I sometimes get Willie Nelson and Tommy Chong.) Was once told this by a guy who was the spittin' image of Steven Seagal, except he was a few inches shorter.

Re: Do I Have a Double?
 

I have never heard of George Carlin.
Googling found this chap - right one ?

I know. And if it wasn't for the fact that there are women out there who have lots of compassion, a strong stomach, and a low tolerance for alcohol, I would still be a virgin:D:D
