When I was pregnant with Kyle in 1995, my friends small son thought I was ...........the vicar of Dibley. Ok I did wear a large dress the same as Dawn French had on one day in the programme (I was mortified) and we looked like we had the same hair do....and I was quite large at the time lol I saw the funny side tho, and it still brings a smile to my face when I think about it now. The little lad used to shout 'Elaine Elaine ' when he used to see 'Me' on telly rotflmao. My son has been told he looks like a young Home Alone Maculey Culken Elaine x

Inspired by the current debate... have you ever been compared to someone favourably or unfavourably ? In the past at various time I've been told that I look like... Timothy Spall (oh great, thanks) Jonathan Ross (flattering if absolutely hilarious !!! PMSL) and most recently Ian Hislop (I don't see that one at all ?) I still think the person that came closest was the one who called me a 'fat stupid chimp' lol Paul
