Bit late to the party. Pottered about today . Saving all my energy for a well earned drinking session and curry on Friday night.

OMG, Sass, I would've been in bits aswell. What are we like, eh?!! Emotional wrecks! ..
Spotted yet another thread over in Chat just now about famous people we have met. Quite by chance, I've met several. How about you or anyone else on here? So....

And bless the original OP's phone problems which caused this thread in the first place! Sooooo entertaining! Best ever! Grin

drinkswineoutofamug · 25/05/2017 09:50

Morning nout interesting today apart from some odd jobs . Going to be a lovely 26c anything and everything is going through the washer and I'm making egg mayo butties. Jesus what a thrilling life I lead 😂
Night shift tonight. Hopefully everything with be calmer

caz323 · 25/05/2017 11:01

Hi all! Smile

26c? That's warm, drinkswine! Looks like we'll be peaking at 19c today. I'm going to Morrison's later and also to a charity shop with some donations. Exciting, huh? Hope your shift tonight is a lot calmer. And, as Sassy said yesterday, you and your colleagues do an amazing job. So thank you. X

MyGastIsFlabbered · 25/05/2017 11:49

I'm ok, feeling a bit emotionally battered but don't want to hijack from the normal silliness of this thread.

Famous people I've met include Ant & Dec, Princess Anne and erm that's about it. My brother used to work for the BBC and has met loads of famous people, he once went for a drink with Des Lynam.

I also used to share a dentist with John Virgo....does that count?

caz323 · 25/05/2017 12:31

MyGastisFlabbered Grin

Yes, you can have John Virgo if I can have....

..met John Parrot's auntie in hospital last year! She was 91 and a very switched-on, amusing lady. She had the ward in hysterics with her charming stories of days gone by. Bless her!

MyGastIsFlabbered · 25/05/2017 14:01

My mum used to live next door to Sally from Corrie's parents.

MyGastIsFlabbered · 25/05/2017 14:02

Oh and I once walked past Betty Smith (Nana in The Royle Family) in a hospital.

MyGastIsFlabbered · 25/05/2017 18:15

've just cheered myself up by booking tickets to see Eddie Izzard

SassynSane · 25/05/2017 18:17

Hi all. Hope everyone has enjoyed the sunshine today 😎 I have mainly been office based sadly...

Def hope your shift later is indeed calmer drinkswine. On that note am posting link to Manchester City Council book of condolence here. I have signed it and just thought I would share in case anyone else wants to...

www.manchester.gov.uk/

Um more famous people....footballers aside, LOL Grin...ooh...

...was on the Sandbanks chain ferry with Tamsin Grieg last summer. She's lovely.

Um....ok so this next one is a bit tenuous and can't believe I am admitting to it but...

...had the most carnal dream about George Ezra of all people recently. I woke up and pulled this face Shock, then this Confused and finally this Blush!!! I have no idea why....anyway I might not have met but wow, I know that boy inside and out !!! GrinGrinGrin

SassynSane · 25/05/2017 18:18

Ooh went to see Eddie in December Gast...v good!

MyGastIsFlabbered · 25/05/2017 18:29

Bugger, my boyfriend has just reminded me we've been invited to a wedding the same day as Eddie

caz323 · 25/05/2017 20:29

Evening all! DSass....George Ezra?? Grin Grin. Mind you....

...can talk! Had one of those many years ago, only mine was....wait for it......Prince bloody Andrew of all people. I know - don't even ask - the reason why remains unfathomable to this day. But, it was graphic with a capital 'F'! Blush

Gast, oh no, what a predicament with your concert and wedding!! That really is a bugger.

On the famous/celebs theme....

...met Bryan Adams and his guitarist, Keith Scott many moons ago now. Was a massive fan & Bryan was lovely. Have a treasured photo to prove It too. What a gig! Sigh!

caz323 · 25/05/2017 20:35

And on that note, going back to the OP....

...got my first real six - string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played until my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69

Happy, happy memories. Smile

SassynSane · 25/05/2017 20:49

I know Dcaz, I know Confused....

My house in Budapest

My hidden treasure chest,

Golden grand piano

My beautiful Castillo

You

You

I’d leave it all

My acres of a land

I have achieved

It may be hard for you to,

Stop and believe

But for you

You

I’d Leave it all

When I now hear this my memories are HOT, HOT, HOT!!! GrinGrinGrinBlush

MyGastIsFlabbered · 25/05/2017 20:58

George Ezra is lovely but he makes me feel like a dirty old woman. And he doesn't look how he sounds.

SassynSane · 25/05/2017 21:27

Gast precisely....so no idea why I had the dream...I think it was his voice that awakened my internal cougar....and she's a complete beast! 😂😂😂
