Bit aloof. Was a bit “funny” because we didn’t know exactly what was in the veggie canapés. Very tiny, muscular and petite, not as “butch” as she looks on tv. It was an overnight flight, and as everyone else slept she was writing and listening to music, as though thinking of a song.

This is The Jam The Bitterest Pill

Correct @shinynewapple2020 🙌🏼

I like Pink but I had a feeling you were going to say she was a bit of a diva

Andy Kershaw ordered a bacon baguette 'with extra jalapeños' from me once. Not the most of endearing of people though.

Oh and I held Billy Bragg's newborn baby in my arms. I don't like him either anymore, but I did back then.

NeedToKnow101 · 16/11/2020 20:08

@MrsBrunch - sometimes there's a theme, and we have to guess the theme too, but you can post anything.

No-one cares if it's been posted a zillion times before either 😘

Honeyroar · 16/11/2020 20:08

I wouldn’t say she was a diva at all, just wasn’t particularly friendly and came across like she wouldn’t tolerate fools. Her manager said she was the nicest, most grounded star she’d worked with, but I couldn’t see it.

NeedToKnow101 · 16/11/2020 20:11

Another on the theme.. 80s

Nurse me into sickness
Nurse me back to health
Endow me with the gifts of the man made world

Fleamaker123 · 16/11/2020 20:35

I went off Pink when someone told me she walked past fans who had been waiting for hours to see her, just ignored them 😳

NeedToKnow101 after lockdown we need to get you down the pub for a few drinks and a blab nice chat about your famous people stories. Honeyroar you need to come along too 😁

NeedToKnow101 · 16/11/2020 21:39

@Fleamaker123 - definitely! We'll all have to meet somewhere in the middle like York.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/11/2020 21:45

Can I come? I've got no stories, but I'll buy the drinks until I've got needtoknow smashed and made her spill all her adam ant secrets

😂😂 of course! The more the merrier! I wonder if we ever will? We might go all shy and sit on our phones all night posting lyrics on mumsnet 😂😂

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/11/2020 22:06

A meet up one day would be lovely. Although miles away, I've got friends near York 🥂😁

It might amaze you to learn this needtoknow, but I've got absolutely no inhibitions in RL either!

Coffee, you'll put us all up won't you? I picture you on a big estate. I'm sure there'll be room for all of us, and we ALL want to taste your baking!
FlouncingB has already made friends with all your goats. Or are they your neighbour's goats?

We’ve got a farm just north of Manchester so possibly a halfway point for everyone? You can all come in camper vans and we’ll get Mr New Model Army up the lane to do us a mini festival!

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/11/2020 22:18

Ok @FlouncerInDenial, when I win that huge Euromillions jackpot that I am definitely destined for, I will hire a whole hotel for a weekend and we can have a music weekend. Who's in? 😄😄😄

Honey if you let me in the kitchen I will bake. I do a pretty decent chicken pie, lasagne, pasta bake, as well as cakes, tarts, brownies, cookies etc 😁

Honeyroar · 16/11/2020 22:31

Ooh Coffee you’re on. Chief festival chef...xx

FlouncerInDenial · 16/11/2020 22:50

I'll be on the bar.

Doubles for everyone with a celebrity story to tell!

FlouncerInDenial · 16/11/2020 22:51

A LIVE AWARDS NIGHT!!!!!!

Honeyroar · 16/11/2020 22:56

Doubles you say.

FlouncerInDenial · 16/11/2020 23:09

Right, these are all on a theme. The theme is "The Party Night Weekend Meet-Up-Cum-Awards-Ceremony-Bake-Off At Honey's
[see what I did there, Midge????]

The heat was on, rising to the top
Everybody going strong, and that is when my spark got hot
70s

She is C such a cutie
70s

You're the spark that lit the fire inside of me
And you do know that I love it
70s

I'm tired of dancing here all by myself
Tonight, I wanna dance with someone else
80s

I wanna be the one to walk in the sun
80s

Not vicious or malicious
Just de-lovely and delicious
90s

Life is good, wild and sweet
Let the music play on...(Play on, play on, play on...)
80s

Tryin' to run from the destruction
You know I didn't even care
80s
