What about Colin Jackson coming back from Seville on Iberia? Won a Gold Medal at the World Championships and I got the hostess to get him autograph my newspaper(for my son I might add) which had a picture of him on the front page.Later got a bollocking from him when I met him in the gents at the airport. She had woken him up to get him to do it. Ha! You can't refuse me points now can you?

Did you get a bollicking from Peter Stringfellow? What's he ever done? I got a bollocking from a World Champion! Stick that in yer pipe!


Now.....how many points?

I was on the same flight home this week as Thom Yorke. He is as miserable as sin (I already knew that) but he's also seriously small. Granted when I first bumped into him we were in the lounge and I was wearing big heels (I'd just come from a do) but I changed out of those clothes and later on he was sitting in front of me for the whole flight and the guy is only the same height as me (5ft 4). I really wanted to tell him that his band is shite and he needs to cheer up a bit but I didn't. He was very attentive with his kids though.

I saw the Modfather 'Paul Weller' in Bayswater. He was miserable and rude. I walked past George Harrison and his wife in Henley (back when he was alive, I'm no Doris Stokes). He looked like a tramp but there was something in the way he moved.


I saw Gwen Stefani in the Airport in LA. She has loads of makeup and is really short (so short she should have had a fishing rod and red hat). Having said that, she is still incredibly beautiful.


Oh, I saw Kate Moss in Primrose Hill. She looked rough, nothing special.


Blimey, I sound like a stalker!

What about the whole Queensland Rugby Union team on Quantas from Brisbane plus getting ME drinks throughout the flight? Included Micheal Lynagh and Tim Horan to name but a couple.

You're half right, Jez.


In fact, Mrs *Bob* and myself take a perverse (but genuine) delight in spotting D-listers under the most mundane or incongruous of circumstances.


So, for example, in out current 'international' spots: her spotting Andy Garcia filming an Ocean's scene whilst she sipped free bubbly in a rooftop suite in Bellagio might indeed be noteworthy, but I won hands down by bumping into Ricky out of Eastenders, coming out of a toilet in Space, chewing his face off.

Thanks Jeremy but for God's sake who here is interested in the Queensland Rugby Union team?


Did I mention that I had a conversation with Hugo MacNeill on a flight back from Edinburgh?


Oh I nearly forgot that I met my brother who was on tele last week in the French abode of Duncan B.... (Dragon's Den).Food programme in Mougins, but expect negative points knowing BoB!

Ricky Gervais was waiting in my tailors the last time I got a suit made. He was an utter prick.


I'd made an appointment and had been a customer for years - since I first started earning a wage where you can have the odd suit made, so I was well known and long standing client. I strolled in 5 minutes before my allotted time and had my fitting as you do...


Gervais was looking grumpy and pissed off when I rocked up and my arrival seemed to exacerbate his mood. He is extra fat and tiny with greasy hair and is so full of imagined self importance. As an aside I've met far bigger stars who have been usually very pleasant, but that little cnut seems to positively revel in his supposed stature.


He's not a star, he happens to be famous, but the talent to fame ratio is a bit lop-sided in my opinion.

    • If this is you or you know of them, please send me a private message. They're likely to live on Crystal Palace Road. Thanks.
    • In my experience there is no fool proof solution to this with any company. Delivery drivers are people and people will make mistakes, cut corners, mis-understand instructions or simply not read them.  I've left instructions for parcels with just about every single company out there and at some point they've all screwed up.  I think the security camera is the best deterrent for thieves. In this case, my ring door bell spooked them off. I've just installed warning signs at my safe space to make it even clearer that they're being recorded. In the case that mistakes do still happen by the couriers, at least I know about it on the camera and can try to alert a neighbour if I'm not home.  Its sad that we have to turn our homes into fort knox with cameras but that's the world we live in. 
    • Ultimately unacceptable behaviour at many schools of all types was exposed by Everyone Invited, not just at Dulwich College. 
    • Come now, you have seen the constant threads concerning poor post and deliveries since the Dulwich office closed and merged with Peckham  Surly that alone tells you how it would compare to now as the whole system was way more efficient.  But despite the complaints and warnings here we are!!
