Happy and glorious friday dear bretheren and sisteren of the brebus! The weekend is nigh! Hunting season (deer) starts tomorrow so I'll be sitting in the cold and dark and probably won't see a living thing. luckily I've been playing in open on xbox so I'll be prepared for this.
Breakfast is up (please note the foiled serving dishes, took me all night to make them as I'm not very good at wrapping things):

Game up date: running on xpox as of this morning when the Midnight Express, newly fitted out for cargo transport (174T) took on a load of computer components and prepared to head to Alcor to build some bridges.

Erm, did we leave celebrities? Hope not.

I once very nearly bumped into Eddie Izzard walking around Soho, and would have done so but for his four absolutely enormous minders. He is tiny! Really, slip-in-your-pocket minute, so titchy he'd make Tom Cruise look like gigantor. Sadly he didn't look to be in the mood for a chat. Pity, as I'm a big fan.

did you live in the uk then ? cuz it's not surprising if you lived in france that it doesn't hold much meaning. V for Vendetta day is pretty uk specific.

Can't imagine how sparklers are a threat in the UK if so.... doesn't it rain like every 8 hours there? Should eliminate any chance of a fire.

The biggest....and I mean Biggest star I've ever come into contact with was Mr Tumble / Justin Fletcher MBE mlud when I was with the family in London- Hamleys was having its Xmas carnival procession down the street and he came by in a giant open topped bus. He glanced down at me....

It felt like this:

UK public information films were like nightmare fuel for small tender minds. Seeing a girl burn her hand off / someone being run over / drown was traumatic.

My wife also worked as a bouncer and denied a very (at the time?) famous England footballer entry into the nightclub- I'd have to ask who it was.

He apparently said "don't you know who I am?" and my wife was like "no" :D

Arriving back at Heathrow from a trip to Barcelona to watch the F1, waiting for our bags we got interview by a BA staffer asking about our flight experience and then asked why we'd been in Barcelona,

My mate Tim turned to me, laughed and said, 'she doesn't know who you are!' I shot him a 'please don't make a big deal out of it' look, smiled, looked a little awkward and went back to answering her questions. The poor girl didn't know what to do or how to act and we were both very very polite to her, 'not wanting to make a fuss, please'.

Hilarious.

I'm Batman!
