I've seen a few "famous" people in ED.. unfortunately "That guy from that program.. you know the funny one!" or "him that did that thing with wossername" don't really come across well on a forum !


(there was the old geezer from Who's line is it anyway ..wossisname? Stephen Frost! seen him a couple of times)


However, not ED but quite a few mornings when I walk from Kings Cross St Pancras to Camden road I'll get a nod from Simon Callow ;) He usually looks very gruff so I never make to stop him but give him the knowing "I know who you are but don't want to disturb you" smile ;)

Is there a statute of limitations on the spottage?


I bumped into Paul Slack the former bass player of the UK Subs in the Herne Tavern about 20 years ago.

Though as I used to work with him in the Boots in Clapham Junction when we were schoolkids it might not count.


So just ignore me if you want.

I think they DID get photo approval. I think they think they look just lovely. I'm an adoptive parent and I must say that the Elton John baby story proves that you CAN buy children.

The most famous person I have met is Paul Yarrow alias 'The News Raider'(Known by the press all over the World from the United States,Canada,Malaysia,Japan,China,Austrailia,New Zealand,South Africa,Germany,Italy,Spain,Greece,Turky,France,Sweeden,United Kingdom,Ireland etc),for his passive media protest against the discrimination of overweight people etc by appearing on live news broadcasts across the World like BBC1,BBC3,ITV,Channel 4,Alja zera T.V,Fr1,C.B.S,ABC etc,etc. Sadly Paul has had a recent bereavement loosing his mother to cancer.She was diagnosed early,but sadly no prevention,she was told by a consultant that she had several years to go.Three months later she was back at King's College Hospital were she was offered pallative Care and she died three weeks later.Paul is suspicious about his mother's sudden death and about private decisions made by consultants behind closed doors.He plans to go to the Independent Complaints Commission,Patients Complaints etc,etc and the anti-euthenasia charity 'Care Not Killing',Paul also plans to go Pensioners Campaigns and Age Concern and Local Involvement Networks to raise issues.This is not the first time he has raised issues with King's. It is good to find people like him raising these valid issues.

      Definitely a couple of swifts flying high above Fellbrigg Road occasionally this morning.

      ED Forum Drinks - anyone interested?

      By Sue · Posted

      I just remember sticky labels rather than badges, but I didn't go to all of the drinks.  Floppy disk labels?! How old are they?! Are they still sticky?!   I think they were just sticky labels which people wrote their own names on? Or at least whatever name they were willing to divulge (though it's a bit odd if they didn't want to say what their forum names were, as I thought the whole point was to meet forum members in the flesh and put faces to forum names!) I know what you mean re cringe, but I don't remember faces/names, which obviously can appear very rude (I have recently discovered it's an actual thing which other people have too) so for people like me labels save embarrassment.

      I don’t think i ever wore a badge / not because I didn’t want people to know who I was (I think most people knew) but I hate badges and wearing them  find badges a bit cringe tbh  just ask someone there name - you’re already out socialising and drinking      There wasn’t a lot to it.  Pick a pub that’s likely to have space on the evening - ask the pub can we reserve the tables. Post date and time in here  it did grow to some quite big evenings.  But those early meet-ups were only 5 or 6 people. It grew from there  if it’s a date I can be in London I might try and get along

      John Otway at the Ivy and a question about Carter USM

      He’s always playing a gig somewhere here and I thought I had read he lived here - I could be wrong on latter point tho
