<<puts down platter of watermelon to keep the Caribbean feeling going>>

<<starts blending pina coladas>>

Actually I live next door to another international mega music star AND DS2 is in a band with the son of the bass guitarist of one of the largest selling groups in the world (and jams with him regularly)

<<drops mic>>

Oooh piccolo that’s GOOD

<<hands piccolo the first pina colada>>

<<adds sparkly umbrella>>

I have to comment to find the thread.

Who turns Joseph Fiennes down!! Were they quite mad?

Can I add my dogs too?

I loved Joseph fiennes in Shakespeare in Love. Wouldn’t have turned him down for pretty much anything I don’t think…

Excellent celeb connections Also
and Delphi. A friend of mine once snogged Ioan Gruffudd and another one had a liaison with James Cordon. And my ex SIL snogged John Lyndon in his Sex Pistol days 😱
(I have no celeb liaisons of that nature to mention)

I did once have a sex dream about Jonathan Davies the rugby player though.

I was in the doctor's waiting room with Mr Rumbold from Are You being Served? many years ago.

I also met Danni Harmer (Tracey Beaker) in a backstage lift when I was chaperoning one of DDs dance shows. She was in the Rocky Horror Show in another part of the theatre - interesting costumes when you're trying to get loads of 7yo on to a different stage. They were more polite than she was though!

How about a pic of the two chickens which did NOT survive my 2 sons’ chicken-sitting duties while we were on holiday? RIP chickies

Can’t stop laughing at this

I had my arse pinched on numerous occasions by Mick Hucknall in the Hacienda in 1988/89

mind you, so did pretty much every woman there at the time. He was a menace.

He was notorious. A girl at uni was one of his conquests and liked to tell us so.

To be fair to my friend who turned Joseph Fiennes down, she is gorgeous, met her DH in college and has just finished touring with Michael Buble, so I don’t think she regrets saying no!

Poor crooks, Delphi - they were beautiful!
Thankfully, our 4 survived us being on holiday, despite a minor mix up over who was meant to let them out, and our 84 year old NDN having to save them from being roasted alive in the hen house…

Chooks

In chapter two of my Jonathan Davies story, I made the mistake of telling my sister - this was only because I posted about it on here, complaining about my dream choice of man, I mean of all the famous men in the world. And someone posted that they had once had a sex dream about Ronnie Barker, which I thought was hilarious. So told my sister about my JD dream, only to get to the Ronnie Barker punchline.

Then it was my birthday soon after and she got me one of those celeb video messages - from JD - and surprised me with it on a family zoom, I nearly died. He even mentioned something about a dream and I have blocked the rest from my memory 😳

Nice one Piccolo !

Ooh, found you all! No exciting celebrating gossip to share, sadly, but I'll gladly read all yours.

Celebrity not celebrating. I blame autocorrect (and I need to put my specs on!).

He was a bloody pest pinching arses all the time. A friend of mine slept with him a few times (and met his mum). He certainly had his pick of women. Ugh. Obnoxious little toad.

Piggy. Love Darius Colourblind.

No idea who Delphi's roommate is. Who has a child of 18? Not Madonna. Not Brooklyn Beckham. Oh bollocks, I am shit at these guessing games. I demand a separate mn thread, out of the education section! Even then mn might struggle.

Mick hucknell lives very near us so we see him in supermarkets etc sometimes. As someone who was imho decidedly unattractive in his heyday, he’s not aged well ;-)

Wayne Sleep walked past DH and I were messing about on a speak your weight machine (alcohol was involved and we were 20) and he was so lovely and had a giggle with us.

I've got a photo of me and Tom Burke - Musketeers and Strike, on the set of the Musketeers in Prague.

I once butt dialled Aled Jones
