Whom do you resemble?

Post by Cyril Haearn »

Someone mentioned the possibility of boycotting Mr Branstons empire, might be vergin on the impossible if one likes train travel
Mr Branston has a distinctive appearance with a queer small goatee beard, I do not look like him

My passport photo used to strongly resemble Barry Gibb, I could have made a fortune as a double. Now my hair and beard are grey I could grow them and almost pass for Reinhold Messner
