TCM Cruise 2014
Posted: June 28th, 2014, 7:31 pm
I recently received an email from TCM about their cruise. The special guests were named, and on seeing that Ann Blyth is included I wondered if I would be able to meet her. I have all but one of her feature movies, and she is one of only three movie stars to respond to me. (Three times).
I will never forget the first time. When I went to the letter box there was a letter which looked familiar. At first I could not figure out why, but then I realised that I had addressed it myself. The return address had been cut from my letter and pasted on to this letter. Inside was a picture of Ann. Written on it was “Merry Christmas Douglas, and It was signed Ann Blyth”.
Each Sunday I go visit my daughter and have dinner. I told her that about the cruise and that I had decided to go on it. She thought it was a great idea. Then I told her that all that had to happen now was for the right numbers to come up this week.
And the bottom line—The right numbers did not come up, but I have booked anyway. I just hope now that I will be permitted to meet her.
