Default Most fondled (somewhat on topic)

I read recently, in one of those most edifying wimmin's magazines one
finds in hairdressers and dentists' waiting rooms, that Alan
Titchmarshe's Madame Tussaud's wax figure was among the "most
fondled".


I read that too. But in my case it was in a book in Waterstones which
had a few pages on each of the '50 Britons who had done most to damage
British life' ;-)

I was a bit sceptical, but I have since discovered that Tussaud's
policy in recent years has been to remove the ropes from its display
and to encourage visitors to touch the figures.
Furthermore, Wikipedia (see below under miscellanea) confirms Alan
Titchmarshe's Tussaud's figure's status...
How could I *not* share this with this here august company?


Wishing you all (a bit early) a happy and peaceful Christmas.


I rather wish you hadn't. It's a bit creepy.


You grimly curmudgeon you.

I meant the sharing of the fondling, not the Christmas wishes
