Now then, when I was a teen in the early 60's, like countless others
I enjoyed meeting all me friends to listen to the jukebox while sipping
coke in those long gone happy cafe days. There was a slight rumour
floating around in the background regarding this young lady.
(who was older than in the image at that point, of course.)

I refused to believe those rumours but then, in the
90's I discovered those rumours, were in fact true.

* Edit....sadly she's no longer with us.

Now Delaney had a donkey
and it was really wee,
so he put it in his garden
to let it have a pee,
but when it saw a dog out there
it gave it such a fright,
that it ran into the house again,
and did a great big, sneeze.


And there really are wee donkeys out there.
Am I correct, or am I correct, dear folks. :thumbup:

It has to be Val Doonican ... but he obviously hadn't started wearing his famous sweaters at the age he was in this picture.

Your are the best Squire,

2.39 !! In the morning !!

Now then, Clues.

Irish.
Possibly a dwarf.....
But of course the donkey clue points to Val Doonican which is the first person I thought of before I saw your answers.

So I am going to say Dave Allen.

Not that I recognise either of them from that photo.....
