Ok....we all know someone from our past I'm sure who's made it onto bigger things. So who is it that you know from your past, who is now famous?

The bloke that lived down the street when i was a kid was the chief suspect in the Wanda Beach murders.

Several years ago he was chased across Canada and gunned down by the cops

Ooooh nice start to the thread Barry. Here's my 20c.....

Went to school in the same form as David Wenham. Paul Osborne from the Raiders was the year below me. Also played lots of lower grade cricket with Gavin Robertson and Jason Gallian [Eng] before they played for their countries.

Beat up Mark Geyer several times at school.

Took Max Sharam for a ride in Beetle (her short-lived fame was just begining).

Made Neddy Smith lose his temper [not funny] (he was already infamous).

My best friend was in high school with Mary Donaldson. I sat behind Gough Whitlam on a plane from Coffs Harbour to Sydney (not that it counts, but yes, those eyebrows 'are' as big in real life!)

I went to school with Mick Jones from The Clash and Big Audio Dynamite, also one of my mates played for Arsenal (English soccer team!) Dave Price. Don't think it counts but my younger sister was in Face Off with John Travolta and ....I can't remember his name but the character was "Caster Troy", my sister was also in Friends for one or two shows and Dharma and Greg and I never watched either of them.

She has since been seen in Fast Fours, Blokesworld and heaps more.

*hoddle street masacre (sp?) was 1 ro 2 blocks away and could hear gunshots in our house. Cousin was a copper and got shot, the bullet grazed his back from shoulder to shoulder and is scarred from it. All the cops took their reflective hats off coz it was note.

Dylan Lewis is way cool.


My claim to fame is that I went to school with Anthony Mundine(St George NRL & Boxing ... hahahaha) and Lance Thompson(St George NRL). Won't tell you what I really think of them. Also went to the same school as the Smith's Gobbledock (sp?), well the person that used to dance around in the suit. Peter Coyne (St George NRL) was a substitute teacher at my school and coached me in hockey for a while.
