So better not ask India Knight why she changed her name in her late teens (her own wasn't posh enough).

Colin Jackson ex athlete once gave me a bollocking in the loos at Heathrow when I thanked him for signing his autograph of his picture in the paper on a flight from Seville. He had just become world champion and I asked the hostess mid flight to take my paper to him and ask him to sign it. I didn't know she was going to wake him up.


Does that qualify as chippy or not?

I'm Japanese. Hope that explains it.

Not chippy in the true sense (chip on the shoulder) but the people that I reckon come across worst in interviews are

Keith Allen

Kristin Scott Thomas

Ricky gervais (written)

Mick Hucknall (google his This Much I Know interview in the guardian from 2006, I still read it now to raise a smile if I'm a bit glum, works every time! )

Damien Hirst in the Groucho Club was a surly faced git although he did draw a shark sketch for my daughter's 16th birthday on the back of a Groucho envelope. I also told Dick or Dom (the blonde one) off for being a twat around the Groucho piano. Name dropping....me?

Wow! He really is a complete arse. I've had a horrendous day at work and reading that interview really made me chuckle! Big thanks!

I detest celebrity culture; it's like a disease. It serves no purpose but to make us feel unhappy with our lot.


I enjoyed reading the Mick Hucknall interview so thanks for posting Hellosailor. I admire his honesty. He had an interview where he refused to play by the rules and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I'm not saying I like him, or I agree with him, or I'd rush out and buy a CD; just saying that I admire the honesty.


This week Katie Holmes is divorcing Tom Cruise. Last week she was holding his hand in public and smiling. Everywhere you look there's a celebrity saying that their youthful good-looks are down to lots of yoga, water and good genes, when we can all see they've been under the knife and have a face-full of botox. It's all phoney. Utter bollox. So when someone (Mick Hucknall) suddenly interviews after taking a truth-serum it all seems rather shocking because it's not what we're used to.


Human behaviour is governed by a need to look good. Obviously not for Mick Hucknall. At least he's sincere.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
