Hi

A great list Rhian.

I have been privileged to meet Nelson Mandela.

I was never a Principle, he however took the time and trouble to thank the Plebs like me.

He was absolutely genuine and had an aura about him.

Impossible not to be be influenced by him.

I'd love to ask Jesus if his last words on the cross were really, "don't eat all me Easter eggs, I'll be back on Sunday".

I'd also love to ask Hitler if he really did kill himself when he saw his gas bill.

The Brontë Sisters, I remember when I went to Howarth I went in the graveyard and the church and I really did feel very emotional to know they had stood right by where I was at one time .

No person in particular but the Vikings have always interested me. Fearsome fellows that they were. Names such as Leif Eriksson and Eric The Red from that era are fairly well known ..not to mention Hägar The Horrible.
