Well, I haven’t… not anymore!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese recollections cover the time from the very early 1960s until after my last significant acting role. After that I pulled a disappearing act and became a regular bloke for the most part. The transition from child\/youth actor through to adult is notoriously difficult, some have succeeded, some spectacularly so. Some have stumbled along and sadly, some have fallen. I chose to take a break, which I’m still on. I’ve been the subject of many 'where are they now?' articles and musings. Well, I’m here now, writing this.

It certainly was a fun time… but, back then I had to go to school sometimes too, never mind these obstacles can occur.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOh, and If you’re wondering why I can remember all the music references and dates in such detail it’s because it has all stayed with me over the years. I can’t remember what I had for lunch yesterday but I can sing all eleven verses of Bob Dylan’s Desolation Row for you, if you’d like…\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e(For Info email: ifmymemoir@yahoo.com)\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":68000060277040,"sku":"BDk17u","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/k17u-Square-cover.webp?v=1792171907","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-k17u","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
