Sinister: I met Roald Dahl!

[Kevan Cooke]

"...so shines a good deed in a weary world."
               -Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

I met the very man who bestowed such wise words upon Willy Wonka!

I must have been about nine years old, he was signing books in High Wycombe
and I queued for what seemed like hours.

Then there he was - this seedy looking old man who I'm sure FluffySarah
would have been crinkling her nose at in disgust.  She can smell things
beyond the sensory powers of ordinary mortals you know.

He signed my copy of "Danny, Champion of the World", spelt my name wrong
even though I had explained it was spelt with an A, and then I was shoved
on my way.

Next week: I met one of the girls out of Tight Fit!

Kevan (with an A you deaf git)
