Trunds - Yea he went off the radar, which was a bit of a shame as he would probably be a good pundit, but old age did start to kick in with him early though I think. He was living in Spain and was involved in a top end hotel, but think he's fully retired now back in the UK.

Dagenham most notable person is Nick Frost according to that website! haha
He's West Ham so that's alright with me.
Speaking of Venners, you rarely see him nowadays. Is he getting that bad with old age?

I was born in Woking, had to look up who else was and came across the likes of - Rick Parfitt, Harry Hill, Paul Weller, Derek Griffiths, Delia Smith, Susie Dent, Ian Ogilvy, Tessa Wyatt. Now in Mid Sussex and quite a few such as Dame Vera Lynn who was in Ditchling. Richard Osman from Pointless went to the same school as I. Thankfully not at the same time as I am sure that he would have been the tallest and I the shortest!

I live in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire. Richard Hammond lives in a sort of castle just outside the town.
Back in the day we had Marc Bolan, Roger Whitaker, Sir John Harvey-Jones and Dennis Potter.
