A mate of mine works for the Shaftesbury Society, in a project that
takes donations of furniture and gives them to "formerly homeless
people" when they get their first flats.

One of the people who donated a suite was a Chinese man called, and I
kid you not, Hung Tu Long - Chris reports that he had REAL trouble
keeping a straight face, and was only able to call the man "Mr.
Long"
to his face.

I have, in different jobs, worked with a James Dean and a Gary
Cooper. (This will mean nothing to the under-30s on the list - they
are what were known as "actors" from the days when movies had
people
in them rather than CGI images.)

Regards,

Mark
