Thankfully it was after that song came out - although that might have made the ‘small claim’ even more compelling!

I’m just glad that she was walking away before it got too serious …

I used to work with a guy called David Craib. The company email directory listed everyone Surname, First Name… So he was Craib, David…
We were merciless…

When I’m in town I leave my bike with a friend who works in a bicycle rental place and today he said Timmy Mallet was in with a crew as he’s cycling around Ireland at the moment…

My mate ran into him right outside his house the other week and he lives on an island. Quite a suprise I think

Just sat next to American firebrand politician - and scourge of the right - AOC on a flight. She wears Santal 33 and is lovely as expected.

Big claims court

I went to the same university as her and graduated in the same year. That’s a small claim. Yours is a big one!

Mariella Frostrup on the Victoria line yesterday, reading the Evening Standard. A bloke sitting a seat away was staring at the side of her head for about five minutes non-stop.

I’d probably be more surprised to see someone reading the evening standard than seeing Mariella Frosthrup

weird/tiny claims court - in the club scene at the start of Human Traffic, Koop is getting jealous of Nina because she is talking to another guy… i had that guy thrown out of a club in Cardiff i was playing as he was so annoying and he dared me to as i should know he’s a local boxer type… two occasions after he shouted across the street at me that he was going to kick the shit out of me. On the second time i just thought if he really was going to he could’ve the first time. Funny thing is he now DJs around Cardiff playing disco etc… Paul Lyons.
this took place about a year before the film was made

Very small (as in not really an actual) claim … I sat on the table next to Mariella Frostrup in Carluccio’s in Spinningfields in Manchester a good few years ago. She was reading a paperback.

Got to perform in a concert with Savion Glover on the weekend. Crazy genius dancer. I remember seeing him on “Sesame Street” growing up and of course “Bring in da Noise” was everywhere. In rehearsal he was extremely jumpy and reticent, pacing around and not really engaging in the rehearsal it seemed. Almost like he was high or something. Come time for performance on Sunday he absolutely killed it. Got to chat with him after, lovely guy.

I dated Laurence Llewelyn Bowen’s niece for a few months 25 years ago. She had very similar hair.

I bumped into Andy Votel after booking a haircut on Town Street in Marple Bridge. He said ‘you must be doing well’ and we both laughed.

Speaking to an old mate of mine recently, his daughter is now dating Ben Sheppard of this morning’s son.
