Who was your first crush on?

Leah in Year 7

A neighbour's nephew who lived in New York, but came to study in Oxford, so stayed with his uncle & aunt sometimes in the holidays. He was 23, I was 14. We went on bike rides together with his uncle. I used to swoon when he pecked me on the cheek goodbye and fantasize about him every hour of the day . I last saw him when I did Camp America aged 20. He very kindly showed me & my then boyfriend round New York. Despite this generosity, XBF still looked daggers at him, I guess my crush was still evident, sigh.

The fox from the Disney Robin Hood film. Then Hartley Hare on Pipkins. Then Timothy Claypole in Rentaghost.
At school a boy called Stephen. Until I heard him singing rude words to a tune from "Jungle Book" and I went off him immediately.

Russ Abbot.

Les Dawson

My love of the funny man began early (I was 7)

I was an odd child.

Jeff Colby from Dynasty.

Or Roy the drummer from our school band, I can't remember which came first.

A red-headed girl at my summer camp when I was around age 10 or so. She and I discovered we had identical bathing suits and we spent the entire summer together designing elaborate revenges against the camp bullies. I wish I could remember her name. She was dynamite.

A nun who drove a tractor at my boarding school

The lead singer, Dave, from showaddywaddy

Around the same time it was also Derek the drummer from Bay City Rollers and Agnetha from Abba.
