The only famous connection I have is that my Grandfather's Grandfather was a famous runner.
Robery McKinstray, I doubt anyone now apart from extreme running fans know who he is!

Found this on him, is quite interesting.

Know what you mean.
I used to work in a Rep Theatre. Met lots of famous people, but at the end of the day, they are only out working to make a living the same as everyone else.
Most of them very nice, then again ???????????
