I was with my lad in hospital the other day, waiting to be called in to see the specialist. Two people there before us, including a well-turned out lady in her seventies.

The nurse came out to call the next patient in......"SUSAN STRANKS PLEASE......".

I still would.

Very glamorous she was. She got a bit paranoid when I was taking pictures of the ground (as well as some board members), but she was very polite when I gave way to her on the stairs and held the door open for her. As was Brady for that matter.

They're a funny lot though. The don't stand when we score and only clap mildly. Kazza basically was taking pictures with her phone for Nobles penalty and entertaining the gentlemen next to her. She also left 20 minutes early at which point I made the comment that she probably want to miss the queue at Upton Park, which Uncle Terry found amusing.

Do we take it that Estuary is the person whose name you misspelt in your original post?

Frankie Boyle in Camden. I should stop posting these particular celeb spots because we have a tv production company near us at work and it's not uncommon to see Nick Hancock, Jon Richardson or someone from QI around the area.

No, I asked him if he was Romford from kumb and when he affirmed, introduced myself and told him not to do a runner from here.

I smiled and waved at my old mate Chris Young [ film producer of The Inbetweeners and other stuff ] who was taking his kids to Primary School while I was driving to our local garage to get a punctured tyre fixed last Thursday .
