    Looking out photos for the "me at 20" thread, I came across this.

    Me and the delectable Miss Fiona Bruce, circa 2003/4.


    Don't blame you mate, she's an absolute sort.
    She's got eyebrows like Doctor Spock.

    Mr Spock.
    Don't ruin my joke.

  • Jodie Kidd leant over me to get served at the crowded bar in my local's pub disco. She must have been six inches taller than me so I assumed it was a bloke. Turned round to give her stick and looked up at a beautiful face so apologised.  Didn't realise who she was until later.
  • Have I mentioned I met Bill Clinton when he was president outside a bar in Hong Kong? Not sure if I have?

    No, I don’t think you have, pray tell.

    She was outside a bar (in Hong Kong) and met the then president Bill Clinton.
    Whoosh 
  • I may have posted this before.

    Just before covid broke out, I was at Anfield with my boss and chatting to Dalglish, Hansen and Phil Thomson, I knew these three quite well through my job. Next thing my boss is introducing me to another ex player, John Barnes.

    I shook his hand and said what an honour it was to meet such a great Charlton legend.

    Barnes just looked gobsmacked while Dalglish, Hansen and Thommo fell about laughing!
    Would have got more of a laugh, if you had said Celtic legend.

    Friend of mine from work ended up exchanging some very-very mildly suggestive messages with Huw Edwards on Instagram a couple of Fridays ago. Having read the messages, I think he was just being friendly/older generation innocently not really getting social media... but it was funny.
    Hello…….
    What a find!! Hmmm . Please don’t let it be.

    I worked on a TV show a couple of years back and there was a young lad who I described as 'wanting to be the only gay in the village' on account of how loud and brash he was, as if he wanted people to notice him all the time. This is TV, where tons of people are openly gay, but I guess he was enjoying being in surroundings where he could be open about it. He was probably a nice chap, just very, very loud and sometimes obnoxious. 

    I was relieved when I found out he had taken a sideways step to another team. It meant he would come into the studio much later in the day. The main presenter who got him that job recently left I think! 

    Many of the people who appeared on that show would hang out in the production office and were often great to talk to - the TV doctor gave me advice on my bowel movements, that guy who knows a lot about money wouldn't stop talking about what we should do with our money. A chubby Irish chap would wander in on a Friday and be quite funny. A Spice Girl perched on my desk while chatting to someone else and frankly, I was fine with that. 

    But the two main hosts, they were not nice people. 
    WE NEED NAMES !!!!!

    ( Especially the guy with the bowel movements' advice ....)

    Are you saying HW is not a nice person? I always thought she came across as a good'un.

    Haha, its just like reading a story that you somehow already know as you've heard it before somewhere.  Can't quite put my finger on it.

    One question.  Did you sniff the desk after?  Yes or no lol.

    Yeah but she’s just been involved in a scandal so the “I never liked her anyway” brigade are in full force. Funny how nothing like that was said before the Schofield stuff came out.

    I'm pretty sure it was said plenty - by all accounts her nickname was "pound-shop paltrow" even before the scandal with PS
  • Unlikely to be recognised outside of football fans but anyway, I stood next to Adam Lallana on the transfer bus at Faro airport last month. He was with his lad. Was a really nice guy and had a little chat with a few around him. 

    Don't tell Klopp but he said that De Zerbi was the best manager he's played for.
