Again in the bank today my ugly distinctly un-celeb chops were mistaken by a star struck fifty-something woman. Urg.


Weird how people draw totally random connections, some with no pattern. In a lifetime I've been asked if I'm:


- David Tenant after hitting the burgers (this happens mainly in Lloyd's bank branches)

- Dougie Freedman (Ex Crystal Palace boss)

- Pee Wee Herman

- Damian from Home and Away

- Ricky Martin (possibly a compliment but it was back in 1998 and I had a tan)



Yours?

Gaz Coombes from Supergrass, circa 95 when "Alright" came out.


Che Guevara, by a surprising number of people, I never would have said it myself.


And years ago, a character from Northern Exposure (which I never really watched) but think that was just due to long hair and leather jacket.

You can get up and sing (/mime) if you want, I'm sure no-one will know the difference.

Carl McCoy of Fields Of The Nephilim at a Screaming Blue Messiahs gig at the Marquee, in my full on goth days.


Will Self in a cigar shop although to be fair he was next to me and as I glanced in the mirror opposite it was me getting confused. Drink may have been taken.

    • We used Oriental Star regularly. We were also disappointed when they closed and we haven't yet found anywhere as good.. The  shop is too small to operate as an eat in cafe which is probably why sweet dreams didn't last long.
    • Borough market has good cheese
    • So you want non-supermarket, artisan cheese, for 20 adults. Decent cheese from a cheesemonger will cost at least £25 a kg (probably more), so allowing 100g each that's 2kg so expect to pay £50-£60. Good luck finding anything cheaper that isn't from a supermarket.
    • Mons, at the other end of LL, has excellent cheeses too, but is also not cheap. In their case, as for the Cheese Block, price is matched by quality. I have always found the cheese they sell to be in excellent condition. As well as good examples of their type.
