It was the name of the girlfriend of Stu Sutcliffe, the original Beatles member who stayed in Germany with his girlfriend (Astrid) and later died of an aneuryism (or however you spell it). So being the student of The Beatles that I am, yes, gotta love the name. And this story. And I'm of the opinion that everyone deserves a little fling with someone out of their league once in their life -- but they also deserve the consequences said fling might bring ???? heh.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15357397551761295138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23068833.post-45158308827312425092010-05-19T05:49:28.949-07:002010-05-19T05:49:28.949-07:00ROLFL at Aunty getting struck before Uncle.

Otherwise, it rings like nothing less than an affectation.<br /><br />As for middle aged men who have no sense about women, can't help there. It seems to be a bizarre form of madness that I personally hope only to ever have to view from afar.<br /><br />That being said, Aunty, I think YOU need to put these stories down into a book.
