Paul Opiac from Emmerdale and Bad Girls lives pretty close to me and his dog Khan and my dog Amber play fight and chase each other in our local park, I had my photo taken with Sid Little in Southport when I was 18, so embarrassed, my mom made me do it, we sat next to Virginia Wade the tennis player in a restaurant in London in the 70's and I got her autograph and when my little brother was 5 (hes now 37) we had our picture taken with Orinoco from the Wombles, totally embarrassing, a guy I fancied at the time was just walking past too.

My Mum had a character in Rupert the Bear based on her - Pauline the Girl Guide, for those of you old enough to remember, in the origonal Daily Express stories. She stopped appearing in the late-70s, but had been in for around 30 years.
