Default Looking for Ringo

Just a bit of fun...

Here are John, Paul and George, but I wonder if anyone could provide me with a Ringo, to complete this little Beatles set?:

John seems to have put on a few ounces since his last photo shoot .

Cheers,

Peter.

Peter,

Cant help with Ringo, but attached are some pictures of a group of medals and the recipient which I stupidly let go some time ago.

Can anyone else see a family resemblance to John ?

Peter,

Possibly a slight resemblance there to Freddie Lennon (John's ol' man).

Thanks for posting.

Peter.

Nice one Peter. This had me chuckling. I'll certainly keep a look out for Sgt (Pepper) Starr.

Tony.

John, Paul, George and Ringo are walking down a street in Liverpool one day, when John sees an insect scurrying across the pavement. He hunkers down and says "Hey, little fellah...we named our group after you..." "What, Fred?" replies the bemused beetle...

(I'll get me coat)

Apparently its Ringo’s birthday later this week, maybe he’s out celebrating.

I will dig out a photo of a man whose SWB I bought years back. The resemblance to the late (?) magician Paul Daniels is quite bizarre!

I think that he was attached to the Inland Waterways & Drainage (no, not Daniels but who knows?)
