The paper in question being The Cheltenham Echo.

Here's a link: http://www.thisisgloucestershire.co.uk/displayNode.jsp?nodeId=231771&command=displayContent&sourceNode=231774&contentPK=19142588&folderPk=108867&pNodeId=231888

The reader comments are fairly interesting too.

The press sometimes dont properly represent the content of an interview having experienced this first hand in my previous company. Overall the article is good for Dan but paints a depressing tone due to the amount of losing poker players referred to in the article, had to mention bankroll management to balance the flaming from some of the anti-gambling section of the community.

I would very much like to see Dan tell the time with his legs. What a party trick that is!

"When he started school he couldn't speak but he could tell the time using his legs," she said.


Did he stand in the sun and look at the shadows, or did he cut one off and count the rings?

LOL at the comments, thats Cheltenham for you, If he was a car thief dripping in burberry they wouldnt bat an eyelid, likewise if he was the national fox hunting champion ... but mention he has won a few bob playing cards and the locals throw their hands up faster than an Italian soldier !!

Dan has abnormally skinny legs and fat arms so wears his watch round his ankle.

Hans, Indy, is that for real?

Do you have a link to the stories? He was phoned today by two different TV companies, so I was wondering if the sudden interest had come about because of The Gloucestershire Echo, or another source? Either way it's all good stuff Smiley

The story was picked up by Ananova and the tabloids tend to copy stuff from there when they need to fill space.

That's perfect. Thanks.

Guess I'll have to pop down the shops to pick up a couple of copies for him - the shops in Cheltenham are all closed apparently!!

btw, has any spotted any obvious mistakes in any of the articles?
