My father is married to Valerie Youngman. His father, Thomas Potts, was married to Elizabeth Bleakley, and his father, Thomas Potts, was married to Ada Barnes, and his father, Thomas Potts, was married to Jemima Dexter (phew!). But the one who started the whole 'T Potts' joke (get it? teapots?!) was his father, Samuel Potts - mind you, I don't think 'S Potts' (spots) is much better and I should know!!
