....and what's new this thursday morning, dazzlenation?...well, i finally have an answer to rimington's query over kate golby's 'best friend' at tudor grange/solihull sixth form....lol....a dead-ringer for a girl called 'ellen beer' at all saints' primary.....hmmm...i knew that i'd seen her, somewhere before - never forget a face etc etc....additionally, i have more information upon what whalley's sister had got up to, which had led her to becoming that powerful upon the networks....in short, toddy had slipped up, whilst using his equipment, let us say, in order to watch-through-her-eyes....during ellen's so-called birthday party....he had allowed a 'time-stream' frequency, to continue to run in the background....which whalley's sister had immediately picked up on....which he hadn't thought would create too much of a problem later on but on the other hand etc etc....anyway, ellen beer's birthday party....most of all saints' school had been invited....i hadn't been....toddy was to tell me "we had to pay so much money to make sure that you weren't part of it" but wouldn't tell me anymore, at the time....naturally i was curious to know what had happened....little colin could always remember everything...and so he had been one of my first ports of call....he frowned...it was really boring....and no, there hadn't been any food....whereas, ruthie stredwick had been exuberant...almost screeching in ecstasy about all of the "chocolate and icecream"....hmmm....a few years later - st bernards road....remember caroline stoller and kathryn stocks doing pretty much the same thing - after a rather nasty episode with stoller aka 'dearlove'....whose wife then burst into tears....talking about he had had treatment/therapy for it but obviously that hadn't worked etc etc.....anyway, according to little colin...lots of children had been gathered, seated...mainly on the floor, in a large hall....there had been a wire-haired terrier on the loose....children had tried to pat it....and it had bitten a few of them....anyway, christine aka 'rodway' had then been asked on stage, by mills....yes, it had been an ian mills event....oh and another thing...having remembered that the young 'matthew beer' - brother of ellen...also at all saints....had been a dead-ringer for mills - genetically speaking....obviously his son....which is what little colin was then to relate....mills had got 'christine' to do her party piece....little colin was to call her "talkie tina"...i kid you not...his nickname for her....and so yes, he must have seen that 1963 episode....she had been in a private girls' school uniform, at the time....a tartan dress with a white collar and red bow....next up - mills was to ask his son 'matthew beer' up onto the stage...it had been a sort of prize-giving event....and his son had won the top prize.....and this is where it gets really strange....because little colin had said it was for 'engineering'....now, it was well known that matthew wasn't the brightest spark on the bonfire, let us say...in the fourth year of that school....not compared to those like little colin....lol....anyway, apparently then mills began to climb up a stepladder, on stage, in order to put his son's star, at the top of a backdrop of decorations...nobody was holding the ladder and it then fell over...he hurt himself quite badly...the children laughed....and then 'mrs beer' rushed on stage to help him....oh and gill had been in the audience, along with his friends...they were playing with those party streamers/blowers....blowing them out to full capacity in order to disrupt proceedings....oh and after the above had been reviewed by sue whalley....toddy et al, were to wonder if she would jump the wrong way - in relation to joining her sister's side etc etc...oh and oscar had been asked about it all, too....to then state that he figured that he had been the terrier that had been very unfriendly - nipping them if they tried to pat him etc etc....a mind control trick?...hmmm....as a child - he had had a toy-dog-on-wheels to sit on (a bit like a rocking horse but not) - of the same breed...not forgetting his favourite toy which had been a wind-up-furry-monkey, with a red fez and castanets....i can remember uncle arnold pointing them out, in their play room at 19 the mall....the monkey couldn't play its castanets anymore...the mechanism had been broken....oh and sylvia was to say that he used to sleep with it, on his pillow etc etc....and what else?...well, back to that rather grand house with a large hall, upon the other side of the heath, to talbot place....because mike williams' gang had all been there....quite a few of them had been on stage, too - upon the righthand side...much older children than those from all saints...."senior school" replies BI online....additionally, you might need a reminder of that boxing day treasure hunt, in the west midlands/warwickshire....which had ended up at 'the case is altered' pub...mike had found the last clue in a grandfather clock...for sir mills to then make a grand entrance...applaud stott and his carload for winning the race...he then sat at the bar, with them....one after another...sorting out all of their problems....he appeared to be very helpful....concerned about their welfare....whilst the young men were all treating him like....well, not a grandfather 'clock' exactly...more of a 'godfather' clock....who handed out money and advice...they loved him....all of them apart from rodway...he was to view her sullen face...she was sitting close to me, at the time....mills was to ask mike why i had been brought there....because it might spell trouble in the long run...he then approached rodway and asked her why she was sulking etc etc...as it goes, eh?....additionally, gill and his mates had followed the cars...to also end up at the same pub, some time later on....mills was to greet gill...along the lines of haven't you turned into a handsome young fella etc etc....gill played along...to later on, take me aside and ask me who he was....and where had the last clue been?...i simply replied 'grandfather clock - ask mike'....no idea of what had been going on, at all....best not to ask too many questions etc etc...go figure:
