I just played it...takes me back to my childhood too...Rolf was one of my heroes as a kid...i used to sit mezmorised at his tv show and watch him scatter a few blobs of paint on a board and make into something spectacular... i dont suppose many of you are old enough to remember his tv show ...

Seen Rolf at a few festivals in my time - I think he is brilliant - dragged hubby and two other mates out of their alcohol and god knows what fuelled sleep at an unfeasibly early hour ( about 10am) to go down and watch him at Glastonbury - he was awesome!!


Rolf Rocks!!

I think this might be an age thing. I'm also not a fan of Rolf Harris. I actually don't even really know him, before my time I think?

Or am I wrong, how old are you WBB? (I always think around 22-27(because of the 'boybilly' but because you have to kids, you must be a bit older.....

And of course RolF Harris moved to the UK early on already.
I can't remember him being popular in Oz, but I'm not sure.

He is a legend in his own lifetime

I used to watch a programme he had I think it was on BBC1 use to show some cartoons in between the drawings/painting.

When I was in Oz god its 10 years!!! Anyway I remember having to organise a database for the wills at this firm in Sydney and came across Rolf's will - due to reasons of confidentiality I will have to be boring and say nothing as to the contents (dont think I can remember any anyway!!).

Oh well - Im not very good at this posting and having a chat type posts - hence why I browse and occassionally post/answer questions - being a forum virgin until I came across this sight. So hopefully havent bored you with my memory.

Atticus..you are not boring.... i accept you cant go into detials about Rolfs will...but please, please can you just tell me who he has left his didgeredoo to?

Atticus

Thanks for that PP

I dont wish to shatter any dreams etc but I think it went with a hold load of things to the wife and then to the daughter. It has been 10 years so...the old grey cells are having problems recollecting.

Mind you he has probably made a new one as since then he has done very well in the UK.

ok, its rolf then but has to be a midi file since when you have background music on a page the file is loaded along with the webpage so the file size has to be small. Midi files are small
