    Julie Covington - lives in a Mews flat in Kilburn next to where I once worked.

    Mad cat woman. I won't digress.

    (oh, for those of you under 40 - she sang the original version of Don't Cry for me Argentina. And she used to be in a programme called Rockfollies).

      I imagine she is still waiting for the Rohypnol to leave her system before contacting the police.

        Jimmy Corkhill from Brookie used to hang round Euston and do the train up to Liverpool. I've met lots more important people but seeing him so close did make me happy.

        lol

          Most recent, Ross Noble, lives near me. Much less recent, John Smith, former Labour leader, at Edinburgh airport, Alan Titchmarsh coming out of the bog at a motorway service station, Dennis Waterman at Heathrow, Lord Beeching just before he closed down our coal research place, Hattie Jacques at Selfridges.

                I once worked behind a bar and Johnny Ball was a customer (Think of a Number).

                He bought a big round, paid with a £50 note (in the 80s), that we shouldn't have accepted but it's Johnny Ball, and didn't leave a tip.

                What a c**t...

                    Elon Musk at our dinner table at a do in Washington. Didn't have a clue who he was at the time....
                    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
