OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could not get home from the gym fast enough to write this. I've had to come on lap top as I need to write loads of words quickly.

I had a meeting with the gym instructor this morning. He was telling me he does close protection/bodyguard work for various celebrities/businessmen too in London. He's built like a brick s**t house so I believe him plus he's a genuine guy. Anyway I randomly asked if he'd ever worked for BA although I said he's not made it big yet. He said his name's familiar. I told him all about OG and so he looked on google and said "yip" he has seen him in RL! Apparently LT did a little bit of theatre last June when they came back from SA and there was an event on and Paul (the instructor) was there on duty watching the room and he said BA was there. BA was standing with some lads, one of the blokes was someone who plays a tall doctor with dark hair who's on Casualty (I don't watch it). Anyway BA spent a lot of time looking for LT and then they were hanging out, chatting together and that. (cute). Paul said there was loads of actors/actresses there.

He said he didn't speak directly to BA but he was generally watching the whole room but remembered him. I asked if he thought he was gay and he said "no. he really didn't think so." Although he did say some actors stay in the closet as it can harm their career but he really didnt think BA was. I asked for some mad reason if he had a deep voice and he said "just a normal voice probably not a heavy blokes voice". At this point I was nearly in tears at the whole conversation. Couldn't believe it! And then he said "do you want his autograph?" and I after picked myself up off the floor "I said YES!!! so he goes down to London quite regularly with protection work so we'll see and he seemed like he could maybe get it somehow. He looked like he was thinking seriously about how he could get it. I'll have to see. I hope it happens. I see him every week so definate BA conversation every time.

OMG! I need to lie down. Imagine how I would be if Paul had actually spoken to him.

orphan · 08/07/2015 11:29

kelly wow, bet that's alleviated your sulk!! Scrap the autograph, couldn't you ask for an up close and personal private encounter??!

Interesting to hear your trainer doesn't think BA's gay. I'd pretty much convinced myself he probably was. Perhaps you need to test your instructor's gaydar though - for instance show him a pic of Graham Norton or Alan Carr and check whether he thinks they're gay!

KellyHb · 08/07/2015 11:31

Just looked on Google but can't see much about this theatre thing LT did. I thought it was the Frankenstein thing but that looks to be back in 2011?

I'll have to ask Paul about it when I see him next.

Dizzydots · 08/07/2015 11:34

Maybe Paul could give some gym instruction to BA Kel, in preparation for January, and we could all be in the class?

KellyHb · 08/07/2015 11:35

Haha orph. What sulk? I really don't think he's gay. I think he's just got dodgy dress sense and is a private person. You should've seen how buzzing I was after that convo-my legs were going like little limpets on that running machine!

KellyHb · 08/07/2015 11:36

I know Dizzy I should tell GI to invite BA over to my gym. I'll give him a thorough Geordie going over. Some pasties may be smashed.

Dizzydots · 08/07/2015 11:43

And if it makes him feel more comfortable we can all look out our dodgiest outfits and fluffiest slippers. Sure woof and orph could lend us all their stretchiest lycra

KellyHb · 08/07/2015 11:46

Honestly this morning's news really cheered me up (as do you all of course) as my Mam's not well this week.

I've got to go out now for a Carvery but while I'm eating my meat and two veg, I'll be thinking of someone else's.

Rhubarb01 · 08/07/2015 11:47

Ooh Kelly we really are in MI5 territory here as GI is now your 'source' and you will need to do whatever it takes to maintain your cover as a normal mum whilst you are really an MN agent reporting back to the rest of us. 'Above and Beyond' may be required - does he fancy you?

Seriously, I bet that cheered you up and will put a bounce in your step for a while?

Rhubarb01 · 08/07/2015 11:48

That wasn't a question it was of course an exclamation!!!!!!

Dizzydots · 08/07/2015 11:54

Enjoy your meat and two veg kel , will be looking forward to surveillance updates.

Tanqueen · 08/07/2015 11:57

To be fair,most gays I know have very good dress sense,it the ones who aren't that have not so good dress sense...so using that as a guide I veer towards him not been gay on the evidence of those pics last night...

cjwoofwoof · 08/07/2015 12:28

Ooh kel sounds like you might gonna need pixies duck when she's finished with it...

Big how exciting kelly

Good grief Kelly, you were really above and beyond there. No wonder you were excited. Hope that's given you the much needed boost! Thinking of you about your Mum, it's very hard I know.

Maybe you could get your gym instructor to arrange a get-together with us all and BA. I would happily skive off work for the day.

I'm about 75/25% re BA being gay. I'm with Tanqueen on their taste in clothes which would say BA isn't gay (could he dress much worse on occasion?) but on the other hand, I think it is prevalent in the acting profession and there is the very obvious lack of a girlfriend (come on ladies, we know we'd all jump at the chance if we could so why are women not throwing themselves at him) other than that one he was at drama school with and there are a few strange photos with other men.

Tanqueen · 08/07/2015 12:47

Strange shots with other men?! Why have I missed

Ilovelblue · 08/07/2015 12:51

I'm trying to remember what it was now - from a while back - bet ice can remember.Wasn't he giving some guy a piggy back?

Tanqueen · 08/07/2015 13:06

Well what way he is ,even with some very dodgy outfits I still find him attractive

Tanqueen · 08/07/2015 13:13

Oops meant whatever way he is....

pixieg1rl · 08/07/2015 13:39

After the disappointment of the fire engines this morning, my day is looking up. Drove past CUOTC barracks at lunchtime - 5 men in uniform (3 of which looked half decent), all with sleeves rolled up to the elbow showing tanned manly forearms, tanned napes of necks, low slung combats, THE WORKS. I nearly drove into a wall.

pixieg1rl · 08/07/2015 13:40

I may be sometime with the duck Kels, I suggest you find something of your own....

orphan · 08/07/2015 13:49

Once had a lovely visit to Minsmere RSPB reserve. Bet you'd have been in heaven pixie - lots of exotic ducks.

cjwoofwoof · 08/07/2015 13:51

3 outta 5 ain't bad pix considering your bad luck this morning. That ducks gonna be well fragged

cjwoofwoof · 08/07/2015 13:52

Any shags orph ?

orphan · 08/07/2015 13:58

But of course woof. Too many to count and I was lucky enough to have a close encounter with a bittern which has a mighty boom.
