Stacey is Number 1 on my husband's Top 5. For the second time I came face to face with her as she scuttled by, and for the second time, I played it cool.


The first time, it was his birthday and it was a cruel twist of fate that I had just left him moments before the sighting.


My question is this: would I be seen to be odd/ loser-ish to ask for her autograph (he is desperate for some kind of connection - weirdo)? It seems a bit naff, especially since she is no random celeb, but a fellow ED-dweller.


Please comment.

I met Gavin at a Florence and the Machine gig a couple of months ago (yes and yes) and he had a go at me for taking his photo without asking first.


The rocky marriage might be putting a strain on their personal lives, so tread carefully.

Been in the big smoke 10 years and encountered many a celeb, but Stacey - she's Top of his Top 5. Surely I can drop my cool veneer, just this once. She's Welsh, after all....


Stacey (Jo Jo).. if you're out there.... be flattered, my husband has VERY high standards;-)

Page is married to the English actor James Thornton and lives in East Dulwich. ?I absolutely love it. I'm starting to know the people in the shops and discover the local parks. It's got a lovely community feel so I don't feel so anonymous.?


From ThisIsLondon - I think she wants to make friends! Go for it. But where exactly do you think it will end? You could get invited round for dinner then what will your husband do?


And there always has to be at least one celeb you drop your cool London persona for - I would lose it if I met either Mark E Smith or the Beeny in ED.

You could shout " I'm the only gay in the village" next time & when she looks round shrug you shoulders " It does sound Welsh though dunnit "


Then you're in, it's down to you if you blow it then.



Good luck boyo...

As I did when quite literally bumping into Nick Cave, carrying a Head holdall. "Wibble" I said.

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
