Sir William Slim?
over to you Santa.
Thanks Graham.
Julie Cole? If that is correct then credit to my Daughter.
Sorry Sandman, not Julie Cole.
Clue time.
She was born in the UK and became an Australian citizen.
Santa I think Roadie has given her initials.
Roadie?????????????
After your reply to Sandman.
Thanks, missed that, her full name is?
Which is, Olivia Newton John, which means Roadie is right.
Fair enough! take it away Roadie.
I've just sent my second Message to Roadie re. his Pic. Does any-one know how else to get in touch with him ?
Cheers,
Sheba.
Don't know if I've used him before, but try this one. Doesn't look as though Roadie is with us yet.
