Doesn't seem to be a problem in ED, if you're famous and someone takes a dislike to you - whether they know you or not - you've had it. So, which famous person gets your goat up? (Sounds positively rude).

Now that's recognition.

Fantastic. He can annoy the whole universe. Classic.

I went through a stage of thinking it was funny to ask famous people to give me a nosh. I met Shane Ritchie in a bar and drunkenly went over, face open and smiling and said hello. He said hello back. I asked him if he'd give me a nosh. There were quite a few encounters.


I've never asked Jimmy Nesbitt for a nosh even though he was stalking me and the wife for at least a week. He followed me round Sainsburys once picking up the same produce as me just after me. Freak! Then I caught him going through my bins. That's when I called the rozzers!

Danny Baker on the radio a few years ago, said "I met that Paul McKenna once and he couldn't hypnotise me. I remind him of that every time I go round on a Friday and wash his car." How we laughed.


James Nesbitt was on the front page of Radio Times as the Jekyll Hyde character and I remember thinking - as I stained his teeth with my coffee mug stain - that boy needs to go to my nice dentist on Forest Hill Road and get his teeth straightened.

You're right. However, one thing that was REALLY ANNOYING was the way everyone kept saying things like "End of." and other cliches with the last word taken off. It really would make you want to boke.

    • Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.    
    • Back to my earlier post about familiarity.  I was in Croydon this afternoon walking between the two main stations.  Didn't feel unsafe, but there were some 'interesting' characters on the street.  Not that any were bothered with me. Not a place I'd choose to go for a bit of a fun.  Although having said that West Croydon has some cracking restaurants and the wonderfully named Saints and Sinners bar, where I once went on a corporate do - not that I did many of these. Whoops just checked and it closed a few months ago. Back on track, I never went to the Castle as I felt it was a bit rough.  How wrong was I?  Only real pub left in the area.
    • Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.
