A Fifth for Errol? Errol Not the Best?

03 Dec

LADIES AND

For those favorably impressed with Errol’s performance as Robin Hood, it may come as a surprise that he was actually only the fifth best Robin Hood. You might want to vote!

With a Little Help from His Friends

29 Nov

INSPIRED BY TWINARCHERS’ FAB POST, I HEREBY POST A TANDEM PHOTO TO HIS “RANDOM PHOTO” … WITH A TRIO OF INQUIRIES CONNECTING TO ERROL.

IT WAS FIFTY-NINE-YEARS AGO NEXT YEAR, SGT. PEPPER TOOK THE WORLD BY STORM – BOTH ITS MUSIC AND COVER ART. REGARDING ITS PHENOMENAL FRONT COVER – PERHAPS THE GREATEST AND MODT ICONIC EVER CREATED – I ASK THE FOLLOWING OF OUR ESTEEMED EFB AUTHORS:

1) HOW MANY OF THE FIGURES PICTURED BEHIND THE BEATLES DID ERROL PERSONALLY KNOW?

2) HOW MANY OF THE LOVELY LADIES DEPICTED DID HE DATE?

3) WHY ISN’T ERROL ON THE COVER? (OR, WHAT THE HELL WAS THE LONELY HEART CLUB BAND SMOKING TO MAKE THEM FORGET TO INCLUDE THE MIGHTY FLYNN?)

Thanksgiving Day at Baron Sepy’s Place

28 Nov

happy thanksgiving to all on the efb!

in tribute to sir baronheinz’s labeurs extraordinaire concerning the three barons – the russian baron of lichtenstein, the hungarian baron of coconut grove, and, of course, the tasmanian baron of mulholland – I found and explored the legendary baron sepy’s legendary mansion in coconut grove.

first let me say that this is an Extremely hard place to glimpse, never mind roam through! so, future visitors to miami intent in seeing it, be forewarned! it is very tough to get to – accessible only via a series of two sets of very heavy electric automotive gates, equally heavy private & public security, hidden away at the end of very private, dead-end street, in a very small and secuded neighborhood, thoroughly obscured by lush tropical surroundings.

even so, as i promised a good while back to baronheinz, and reminded by his incredible bus ride and interview in lichtenstein, i made it in! and guess what i found! it’s presently unoccupied and under total renovation – allowing me to visit every nook and cranny!!

first, please meet sepy and anita:

here’s the renowned charging bull portico!

thank you for the inspiration, sepyheinz!

Toofaiti – Femme Fatale from Huahini

23 Nov

It’s Exotic Enough That Errol is from Tasmania, but Making His History Even More Fascinating are His Unique Genealogical Connections and Family History.  Recently Explored was Errol’s Possible Relationship to One of History’s Most Famous Explorers, Roald Amundsen, a Supposed “Cousin” of Errol’s Step-Grandfather Andrew Hammer.   Further Research Indicates What is Perhaps an Even More Unusual Connection – to Toofaiti, of Huahini & Pitcairn Islands – Who May Have Been Errol’s Maternal 4th Great Grandmother.  Toofaiti, was Born on Huahine (“The Rebel Island”), one of the Leeward Society Islands, Midway Between Tahiti and Bora Bora.  She Ultimately Married Edward Young, Who Himself was Exotically Born in 1762 on St. Kitts Island in the West Indies.  “Ned” Young was One of the HMS Bounty Sailors Who Sided with Fletcher Christian Against Captain Bligh.  Ned & Toofaiti’s Son, George, was Born on Pitcairn in 1797, Making Him (If All This is True) Errol’s Maternal 3rd Great Grandfather – Lily Mary Flynn’s Great Grandfather.  

As They Say in Huahini, Mauru-Uru!

Here’s the Beautiful Birthplace of Toofaiti:
