You are correct Marian, she is known as just Joanne, but some websites do mention Joanne Kathleen Rowling, so I gave that answer as I thought you were after all the names :wink:

"As she had no middle name, she chose K as the second initial of her pen name, from her paternal grandmother Kathleen Ada Bulgen Rowling. She calls herself "Jo" and has said, "No one ever called me 'Joanne' when I was young" but her first book was published under the name Joanne Rowling. She decided to call herself J.K Rowling as she didn't think boys would read books written by a woman!

A BIG clue as no one seems to remember the venue :roll: .................it is a famous British venue, where I think Matt jointly holds the appearance record with Frankie Vaughan :)

Eh, who's Keith Robert? I was going to choose The Talk Of The Town then thought it would probably be The Palladium.

While we're speaking about the "Talk" has anyone ever been there when it was open? It was my goal to see someone there and I never did. We booked for Dusty one year but she took ill and cancelled after her opening night, we got to the Talk in time to see her name coming down. I was as sick as a parrot!!!!!! :cry:

When you see a statue of a horse and a famous rider, what do the position of the horse's feet mean about the rider's death?

A. I think the position of the horses feet on a statue show if the rider died naturally or in battle or later from battle wounds.

Q What year did the PAGE 3 GIRLS START.
