Today, in the big Boots by Bond St tube I was standing behind:


Jimmy Paige


Had to tell somebody.


I am cursing myself because there was a stray strand of hair stuck to the back of his coat, I could have plucked it off SO easily. How much would a hair of Jimmy Paige go for on Ebay I wonder?


Am now soaking in Led Zep memories; squeezing my lemon as I type.

Holy christ put this in the religion topic.

I would have died and gone to Led Heaven.

Is it just me but does he look more oriental as he gets older and greyer?


One of the actresses in the play with me works as a hostess in the VIP lounge at O2.

I mean, can you imagine?

No, seriously.

I once stood behind a long-haired flouncing git in the queue in camden virigin, harping on about how the music he was playing was a little bit Manic Nirvana a little bit Physical Graffiti. I coughed *tosser* under my breath and as he turned around it was Robert Plant!!

I immediately felt simultaneously starstruck and a bit of an idiot...but he is a bit of a flouncing git isn't he.

Actually Peckham Rose, a good friend of mine lives in a rural village near Wolverhampton (a bizzare juxstaposition I grant you). Near this village is the home of one Robert Plant.


I have seem him in and around the village a number of times and have twice been sat in a curry house with the great Percy.


Anybody know where John Bonham is buried?

May I sniff your coat please? I am in awe!!!!!


I saw him on the outrider tour in 1986 (IIRC) had front row, in the centre at Newcastle City Hall. He sat down tith his Dan Electric and I shouted "You really going to play Black mountainside - White Summer?" - "How did you know?" he replied. "You use that guitar for those songs because of the tuning....." He just laughed and shook my hand....never washed of for a week.


Miserable git never gave me his scarf at the end of the gig though...despite becoming bezzie mates in an instant...


Still always the next tour to look forward to.....

    • I would leave London, or at a push move back to north London. In SE London if you want to get away in a car you are trapped, always an hour to go the first 10 miles, chugging up to the M4 or round the south circular, which is really just a line someone drew connecting a load of roads. and I know there are trains but first you have to get to those mainline stations, unless you only want to leave London to go to Kent. which I don't. 
    • It was you who  made it personal in the first place,  Jazzer. You said you didn't feel safe in the streets,  and you said you didn't go to Central London because you didn't feel safe there. So are you now saying that wasn't "personal"? "Fire from the hip." Another interesting choice of words 🙄 I'm not "demanding" anything! I asked you some perfectly reasonable questions in  response to your own statements. None of which you have answered. Never mind. It seems to be pointless having a discussion with you. It's long past my bedtime. I'm going to turn on my sleep app  and go to sleep 😴💤
    • Hi Forumites, This afternoon someone in a dark blue/black saloon car collided with my parked car on Thompson Road, SE22 9JR. I have a neighbour’s doorbell cam footage of the collision at 14:30 19/09/2025 but am unable to identify the registration plate. If anyone has footage of a car travelling down Thompson Road towards Crystal Palace Road at that time please PM me. Of course if the Perp would like to confess they can also PM me. Thankyou.
