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.

    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
    • An inquiry will put a huge amount of time and resource into looking at what happened in the past and why it happened and who was responsible and, in a year or two maybe more, a report will be produced and actions may or may not be taken, some of those responsible for bad decisions will already have resigned and moved on.   Given that we now already understand some of the issues that allowed this awful behaviour to continue unchallenged, my concern is less about whether there is an inquiry to examine what happened in the past but about what is being done right now to protect girls and young women from predatory and exploitative men in whatever race or identity they come in. Inquiries examine the past but don't necessarily solve problems and they certainly don't come up with conclusions quickly which is why they can often feel hollow.  I'd rather see perpetrators and those that let the perpetrators act with impunity, actually being prosecuted and an inquiry won't do that.  I suspect that's why some MPs voted against an inquiry. But do feel free to give me examples of inquiries that really made a difference and actually changed things in a timely and effective way.      
    • In recent consultation on further ED CPZ the majority of respondents were against. Fully appreciate you may not live on a road proposed for CPZ. If you are close to that area it is likely you will be affected by parking displacement if the CPZ goes in. I was just curious what James Barber's position on this is? Perhaps he'll come on here and let us know. He was always really good at visiting the forum.
