Puzzle Description:

My fantasy is to be this close to Paul McCartney. I know, he's showing his age these days, and so am I. But in my fantasy, he is 25 and I am 21, and there are no other women in his life. :-)

McCartney was the only Beatle to remain a London resident during the years that The Beatles were together.

In 1965, Paul bought a home at 7 Cavendish Avenue, St Johns Wood, London. The music room/den was on the top floor and had a window overlooking the front courtyard. Songs such as Penny Lane, Getting Better and Hey Jude were written there.

A Knight piano stood in the music room. McCartney got design team Binder, Edwards and Vaughan to paint the piano in psychedelic colours.

The many visitors to Cavendish Avenue included Andy Warhol and Mick Jagger. McCartney reportedly offered Jagger his first joint in the music room at Cavendish Avenue. :-)

McCartney had a meditation chapel built in his garden around 1967 which contained a circular bed donated to him by Groucho Marx.

In 1968 fiance Jane Asher returned unexpectedly to Cavendish Avenue from Bristol to find McCartney in bed with another girl. They broke up shortly afterwards. According to Paul, he and Jane had already broken up.

Sing to me, Paul.

Wonderful puzzle and now that you tell me who it is I can sure see it!

Thanks Teresa! Paul Mc Cartney is coming to Buenos Aires, Argentina, next month and I'm trying to decide if I'll go to see him or not (tickets are very expensive and I have to travel 1800 km too!) I'll take your puzzle as a signal!

I like your fantasy, Teresa. Mine too!

I wouldn't mind being this close to him as well ... for different reasons.

Very obvious to me who it is. Well rendered!

nice job
just by chance did you base this style on jans recent cat picture
#7: Teresa K (fasstar) on Oct 11, 2010
Thanks, everyone.

Bugaboo, I did a wide-angle close up of a cat before Jan did his. So maybe I got the idea from myself? :-D

Claudia, if you go, please blow him a kiss for me. Sigh.

Teresa, after quitting from Heather Mills I think he is not engaged anymore. This might be your chance!
