Nick Thomas sends us this photo of Flynn and Beverly on The Red Skeleton Show 1959

29 Mar

Have you seen this one? Errol Flynn's last performance as a hobo on “The
Red Skelton Show” (along with Beverly) from September 29, 1959. Might
be nice for the blog if you think people haven't seen it.

I think we have this on the blog somewhere, in fact – but this
may also be a variation of the one we have? Or perhaps it is
only cropped differently! In any case, identical or not I like
this photo a lot and Flynn, I think, doesn't look as ill as he
really was….

Tubely site is SPAM site and the Chat has viruses and trojans!

26 Mar

If you get an invitation of join a site called Tubely AVOID IT! I got an invitation from an old friend and joined. After bypassing tons of spam offers I reached the main pages and was tired so didn't go into the chat area. Good thing! I have now read that this site captures your email contacts without telling you and begins inviting people to join. If you go into their chat area you will get viruses and trojans according to a review site I just visited. So if you get such an invitation and at least two people here have, delete it IMMEDIATELY! Why people set these harmful things up on the internet is beyond me! There should be jail time for doing it!

Book: Adventures of a “bon vivant”

25 Mar

When I registered myself on Facebook recently, immediately I got a message from a co-blogger, the very well known Ventura Sala, living in Mallorca. He mentioned the “must have” book, (which is only published in Spanish) called “Aventuras de un vividor”. It is only to mention the fact that this book actually exists. Although we haven't met yet (but we were d*mn close only a few weeks ago!), Ventura is probably the only  local authority on Errol on that beautiful island in the Med.

He sent me two CD's in Spanish with a wealth of information, which in their own way are an enormous contribution to the legion of EF fans / admirers. Once we do meet, I am certain that he will take me to Errol's old “water holes”. Can't wait!!

Errol thinks he is a pretender!!!!!!!!!

25 Mar

Hi all,

As promised I would send the documents regarding Errol Flynn's extract from the register on his arrival at the Rock Hotel in Gibraltar. I send the files to David in order for him to process this delightful task, probably you will find them in the “Document” category. Please read it, his “one word” comment is so typical for him. Errol had that special GSOH apart from being a practical joker. Reminds me, anyone ready for the subject “The big snook”?

Friends of Errol Flynn (Fanzine)

25 Mar

Have any other Flynn bloggers come across the 'Friends of Flynn' fanzine? I picked up a handful of issues a few years ago and they were very good, with some pretty rare and unique Flynn content.

best wishes,

Brian.

Errol and Me

21 Mar

Well, now we have read all the interesting comments on “The Life and Work of  Errol Flynn”, which unexpectedly for me sparked off great dialogue between our fellow bloggers and really got that great contrast emerging between people, could I perhaps ask you to take the bait and get the high standard articles going on this sublime website and  continue to comment honestly on “Errol and Me” by Nora. For myself, at the time when I bought this fabulous discovery, I found it of enormous value trying to find out more on the enigmatic Errol, I learned a lot from it. It was an “eye opener” for me years ago, so “open” and well put together. Occasionally, I read a bit from this excellent book which I think should be a “must” to have.
