Most famous of person in my family was my Grand-dad who was the golf pro at Wentworth Golf Course

But I once played with Pink Floyd when they were baby-sitting me and I used to have several footballers live on my street

It was a posh area

That reminds me - my uncle has known all the Newcastle team for a few years through work.

I my God-father also works in the pit crew of a F1 team, although I haven't found out which one yet.

So no-one famous in my family... but seem to know a fair few!

I'm unfortunately related to Cilla Black

However, I take great pride in the story my mum told me of her slapping Cilla in a club (before she was famous), as Cilla tried to claim my mum's new coat as her own. My mum rocked
