A work mate went for a lager-fuelled curry meal with Kenny Baker (R2-D2) and Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) after they got chatting at a convention, that just seems like one of the weirdest night out you could have >_<

I bumped into a girl I recognised (but couldn't remember where) in the market near London Bridge. We did the usual brief polite 'how are yous and what are you up to at the moments'. She was promoting 'Cheese' and had a T-shirt on that read 'Cheese is great'. I noticed her picture in the Metro the next day - it was Nell McAndrew God knows what she must have been thinking

I used to translate for Eurotrash but never met anyone famous while I working for them.

don't think so, though i can imagine he was bored and wanted to lighten up the (no doubt tedious) conversation.
