Just a couple of things about our wonderful encounter with Johnny at Pinewood yesterday…
The book I gave him was an autobiography of Jack Kerouac, author of *On the Road”. I know this is one of Johnny’s favourite books, so I thought he’d like it.
When he signed my pic, and I asked him to put “To Karen”, he said “So you’re Karen?” I’d dropped off a bottle of wine last Thursday, together with a letter, so I guess this is where I got the name from. I have also, via a contact in the production office, passed on a letter concerning the Birthday Project. I have been assured by the same contactthat this has been passed to Johnny via his assistant.
All I can say is that it was a wonderful experience meeting Johnny. It still hasn’t sunk in. He is just so mellow, and genuine, and to see him actually in the flesh was unbelievable.
