Hi


I read or heard some time ago that particularly in the wet shirt scene from the Quiet Man Ford was getting Wayne to do all the things to Maureen that he wanted to do, a bit voyeuristic and sad really.

Hi Mike

Thanks for that and all of the others. In a manic moment when the world seems to have gone crazy its nice to just sit for a few moments with good music and good company and just reflect.

This is the first one i have managed to scan in and it looks awful but at least I have managed it. Now i have to learn how to get all the picture in. But its a start.

Hi

Looking through the book this is the photograph I took up to London with me hoping that she would sign it but at the last moment I bottled out of asking her.

Hi Kieth

it was a pity about the green bag, especially when all I had in it was a newspaper that I'd already read on the train going up, and of course her book.

Hi



This was taken at Harrods a couple of years ago when Maureen O'Hara came on her European tour to attend book signings for her autobiography.

I had recently joined the Maureen O'Hara fan club and heard about the forthcoming event and arranged to go up to London and meet some of the people who would also be attending.

Getting there early I met a lady from Dallas who was well up in the society a lad from Norway who gave me an Irish magazine about Maureen O'Hara, Also a man and his wife great fans who came from Havant which is the first stop on the line from Portsmouth and who I later found out some time earlier had worked in the same building as I did.

There was a large crowd gathered in the book shop and after about two hours it was announced that Miss O'hara would be along but as she was unwell she would restrict her signing to one book only. I had a slight scare as I had previously bought the book in America and there was doubt that she would sign it.

On her arrival in a wheel chair she signed and spoke to everyone it was brilliant to meet a legend even better to be photographed with her.

Hi

Thats a good idea I'll try and find the photo that was taken on that day and tie it all. As for the photographs yes they are a part of my collection. As time goes by I'll put more on each relevant place.
