Welcome back Gio - Sounds like you had a good time in M&S !!!
Andrew lives in Cornwall I believe!
The concert was great we had 2 vip tickets between 6 of us and we shared them for bits of it - My friends sister saw the Wham bit from there- I can't remember who I saw.
Am ordering things for dd party found a great web site and it posts to Italy - decided to use paypal and it all jammed up on me and now I can't get back in !!

I hate paypal at the moment! It keeps refusing to work for me and when I check the site it all looks fine and I know I have funds! What's the website Rosa?

Penthesileia · 23/02/2009 21:02

Hello gio!

Tut tut, Pippi - pirate DVDS!

Rosa - how funny that you saw the much-loved Kevin! Hope you get the site to work.

LOL @ franca deigning to see Brad Pitt in the flesh.

I've done that think-you-recognise-a-celebrity too - an Irish comic, called Dara O'Briain. He was walking through town, and I was with a friend, reading a menu (long story). Anyway, I looked up, saw him, said "Hi!" and waved - like I knew him. He looked very surprised and smiled, and sort of waved back - but at the same time, I realised that, yes, I did know him, but from the tv, not RL, and then looked all flustered and embarrassed. And he obviously saw me going through this in my head and chuckled. My friend still won't let me live it down. We saw his stand-up show that night - t'was brilliant.

SunflowerNeedsSunshine · 23/02/2009 21:08

glad I'm not the only one then (thinking I know celebs)!!

welcome back gio! well, wel-gone back...

might be back later, DP needs the laptop...

oh, no-one picked up the phone at the consulate... why am I not surprised ..

Penthesileia · 23/02/2009 21:13

I imagine they were having coffee, sunflower!

javierbardem · 23/02/2009 21:22

Gio and Rosa, you seem informed about andrew!!

Penthe, i love dara o'brien, my little baby girl looks like him!!!My current favourite comedian is the very rude one, scottish, franky boiler, or something similar, he is very very nasty!!

pippi, you will have to tell me about benjamin button, i love fincher's work but this seems un poco scontato, once you have seen the trailer, boh.

T Bickle is the character played by deniro in Taxidriver.

javierbardem · 23/02/2009 21:23

many years ago i called the consolato and when i evnetually got through, I was talking to this guy and I could hear salsa music playing in the background.

francagoestohollywood · 23/02/2009 21:40

I'm having a little break from romanzo criminale where - talking about 6 degrees of separation - I've just spotted a friend of my dad .

Tis very good (and kim rossi stuart is eminently shaggable as well)

later!

Penthesileia · 23/02/2009 21:41

Frankie Boyle is indeed hilarious - I love him on Mock The Week!

Bless your wee DD looking like Dara! I bet she doesn't!!! Actually, he has a sketch on one of his shows about looking like a big baby, I think!

francagoestohollywood · 23/02/2009 23:11

Exhausted by watching Romanzo Criminale. Makes you think about post war italy and it is NOT good.
Notte!

gio71 · 24/02/2009 07:18

mmm I love Kim Rossi Stuart as well Franca, he is particularly shaggable in Romanzo Criminale. I did that "I know you " thing as well, with Toyah out of Corrie in Manchester M&S-went up to her and said "hiya" like she was my best mate from school, she looked at me blankly and I had moment of realisation and scarpered!
Wish me luch girls, have my meeting for residenza this morning, am sure will be usual bureaucratic hell on earth

gio71 · 24/02/2009 07:19

that would be wish me luck not luch

Bucharest · 24/02/2009 08:11

Morning all....

I love all the people on Mock the week- exception possibly chiselled not so funny man in the middle who has been around for years......I think all babies probably look a bit like Dara? Or Jamie Oliver? Frankie Boyle makes me laugh out loud- am literally splutting coffee all over the floor at him...

Our Carlucci is the one with the melted face (I s'pose I should be nicer- I think she was in a car accident? But now, add to the melt all the liftings and she's just scary. I can't remember her name- she's not the margerine one anyway- Milly- not her.

And dp's family's Mp is my gynaecologist! (all gynae's seem to go into politics down here, comes from looking so long at ar$es, then they feel the need to start talking out of them I suppose. He is very orange and has bouffanty hair. He's a Berlusca man.

I didn't know Andrew R lived with keren! I'm absurdly surprised at that!

Dp's claim to fame (which he borrrrres me with incessantly) is that Anna Falchi tried to get off with him before she was all lippy and famous and he turned her down.....(he says, note....whether it's really true or not...)

DamonBradleylovesPippi · 24/02/2009 09:51

lol bucharest at gynae and dp!

DamonBradleylovesPippi · 24/02/2009 09:53

ah and yes def having coffe at consolato. who has been and remembers the blond old bimbo at the aire??? you must, she's been there eons and although she's probably in her 70s she dresses like a teen, actually must be one of the carlucci's sisters.

SunflowerNeedsSunshine · 24/02/2009 10:35

morning,

yeah, blond bimbo registered both me and DS! and then there's blond-lion-head at the passports, I always get her!

DD's been a bit of a lagna this morning, not sure why... she seems a bit better now, she's playing with DS's doll (he won't be happy about that!)

waiting for Mr Postman now to bring DP's birth cert and UK passport application form, then tomorrow will have to take DD to have her pics taken and send the lot off...

I had a thought - if I just post the legalised cert to the AIRE, then I won't need that apt, will I?

right, off to do some washing up while she's happy, then prepare some zucchine (at DS's request ) for tonight and pancakes for this afternoon....

DamonBradleylovesPippi · 24/02/2009 10:58

they've got such a cushy job don;t they.

I think not sunflower. ah go to a photographer to take dd's picture. costs the same and they do it properly.

francagoestohollywood · 24/02/2009 11:26

Good luck Gio (as I said, the more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that the 4 main actors in Romanzo Criminale are all rather shaggable for various reasons, esp kim rossi stuart. )

Lol at the blonde bimbo in aire
Bucharest, you mean
Gabriella?
Lol at your dp and the berlusconi gynae. I think bucharest you should write a book

Rosa · 24/02/2009 13:20

Oh Gio the nice Vigili visit- I remember when I did residenza at dh house ( he was dp then) - I took a toothbrush and makeup and stuck them in the bathroom incase he looked . He never did !
The site is partythings2go I gave up last night and I hope I saved the page with the order on or I will be mighty pissed off - I am going to give it a go now. Pancakes I nearly forgot... Its a nice pm here so dd1 ( the bee) going out for an hour with her friends in costume after nap then I might make some with her when I get back - minirosa permitting

OP posts:
Bucharest · 24/02/2009 14:12

I'm going to make Rosa's pancakes! (with a little help from Jamie Oliver for the measurements...American ones anyway)

Dp has just reminded me of another wowy sleb claim to fame......you may all need to sit....he went to scuola media with Giorgino from Rai 1 (except they weren't friends because- quote- Giorgino was a bumlicker then and he's a bumlicker now - Unquote.

DamonBradleylovesPippi · 24/02/2009 14:15

ROFL!! chi e' giorgino btw? aren't they all quite leccaculi these days?!

Bucharest · 24/02/2009 14:27

He's the youngish hamsterish one. TG at weekends I think (have to confess to watching TG5)

Penthesileia · 24/02/2009 14:33

Have no idea who this Giorgino is, but am ROFL @ bumlicker, past & present!

Rosa · 24/02/2009 14:36

Ok here is my claim to fame ( other than Kevin) . I sat next to Phil Collins an a flight to Antigua ( he got off at the island that burnt down where they used to do all the recording Monserrat ???? ) . ...
DH most recent cliam to fame is Caludia Schiffer in his boat but that was a few years ago. He took Nancy Brilli and some MTV people more recently- he is super cool about it all ( yawn emotion). When George Clooney was in the lagoon he was on pain of divorce ot to get a pic / autograph if by some chance he happened to see /him !!....he diddn't !
