Fame

Thinking about how many posts and views about THE FAMOUS KLY. PICKLES has made me think of the following quote:"Everyone has 15 minutes of fame ", or something like that!
Calendar--a Northern News progamme on I.T.V.showed me receiving my O.U. Degree But was passing the 11+ to K.B.G.S. the most important Passport to fame?Was it?

It can't be, because the (in)famous E.Pickles never did it.

Thankyou webmaster for removing the offensive em. Commonsense costs nothing but can be valuable.

Another unsolved posting mystery beyond the scope of a Poirot? Must have something to do with the 59 minute rule for correction - or retraction.
Little sir "echo" has now gone like some Brontean would-be under a previous posting.
Why is it always where Pickles figures that we get these mystery postings,partial lapses and eventual scrubbings?
If so look out Dave and Nick!!!!
