An ancient family member in the 1600's was known in England as "The Hanging Judge" or Bloody Judge Jeffries. (Google it, it's a long story). My Dad saw Lawrence of Arabia in London in a hospital, and was at school in class with Reg Varney, the comedian from the series 'On The Buses'. I met Pat Phoenix and got an autograph (Elsie Tanner from Coronation Street) years ago. My brother has transported many well known sports identities in his coach, including the English Cricket Team! In fact, I once held the poms up outside the Adelaide Oval one day in their coach, I was parked where they wanted to go!!!! Met Cliff Richard in London, he was a friend of a cousin of mine.
In his coaching transfers from the airport, my brother has picked up Pink and her entourage.
Met Bob Hawke and Gough Whitlam in the past, and are friends with a few politicians (nothing to be proud of!! LOL) Two of my kids are godchildren to two of them.
Oh, and I nearly forgot, according to an over zealous uncle, we are SUPPOSED to be related to Gerri Halliwell. Her grandad was my grandads brother!

just found out that my family on my mums mothers side is somehow related to wilhelm kietel (hitlers right hand man) long story short my mums mum's last name was kittle and her dad was german. over in germany kittel is actually kietel (pronounced kytel) so when they came to australia (my nana joans dad's family) they changed it to kittel so it sounded more australian. they then moved to a small country town called iron knob on the eyre peninsula and it became known as kittel country by the locals. Welcome to Whyalla - Iron Knob
