There are many great people I have already met, yet I want to meet even more. I’d even like to meet Lady Thatcher. I want to know how they think, how they live, etc. And whilst I’m waiting for opportunities to come along, I’m studying their lives and their work. All this is the part of “thinking big”.
And now I can testify that thinking big can work wonders… like, walking into Billy Connolly in the shop.
When this lovely man passed me by, I couldn’t help but exclaiming: “You look like Billy Connolly!” To which he turned around and said to me that he was, indeed. A Billy Connolly look alike.
Over at Barely Connolly you can find many photos of Bob Lucas, along with the story of his celebrated career. We had a lovely chat about Billy, Bob, and their beards (for the record, Bob had also once dyed his beard), at the end of which I simply had to ask a store worker to take a picture of us. So, here goes… Billy, you’re next!
