It's not bad, just odd, cos he's quite an international kinda movie star. He was in 'The Lost Boys' (80s vampires). Thanks for the pledge to watch my TV show, which now feels like a real thing.<br /><br />L - thank you :)Teresa Stensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17027879292470220383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5968546507603375440.post-16201598262779272442013-08-09T17:31:12.543+01:002013-08-09T17:31:12.543+01:00Well done on your success.

Numbers send my brain into dyscalculia shut down and I'm back being a stickleback in porridge...<br /><br />(PLease, please, please, powers that be, let Teresa win!
