Sleb Spotting

[liadnan]

During the Super Furry Animals set yesterday I noticed a (very pretty) woman nearby who looked vaguely familiar, and spent the next five minutes desparately racking my brains wondering who it was: I was convinced it was someone I vaguely knew and was worried that my notoriously crap visual memory was going to let me down embarrassingly once more.

On the way out she called after me, and I turned, afraid this was the moment I was going to have to bluff. All she said, however, was "sorry, but you have a plastic bag stuck to your foot." Which I did. "Thanks," said I, finally realising that the reason I thought I recognised her was she looked startlingly like Neve Campbell, for whom I always did have a Thing, ever since the days of Party of Five. And wandered off. Realising as I did that the woman who had spoken to me sounded a lot like Neve Campbell too. Including the slight Canadian accent. That's the Neve Campbell who does actually now live in London and is currently appearing in the West End. At which point the woman passed me again and I realised that it was in fact Neve Campbell.

Ah well.

Heh heh. Oh dear. Never mind, it might have been loo paper instead.

Well, it was a bonus anyway. Thanks again for the tix.

The sidekick guy from the Orange cinema adverts was on my train this morning. I guess yours was better though.

[liadnan]

Do you have a Thing for him? No? I think not. I win. Possibly.

That explains why the Central line was so busy last night...

"sorry, but you have a plastic bag stuck to your foot."

From which one extrapolates a rather middle of the road romantic comedy starring Hugh Grant as a hard working lawyer type in London who has a thing for a dishy American actress played by Neve Campbell.

The film doesn't do terribly well at the box office as it is like all of Hugh Grant's other films, but certain parts of London hithertofore deemed somewhat scruffy and unwanted experience a rise in house prices as a result of featuring as filming locations.

Whitechapel could do with that.

thank you, but no m'dear, if I am _ever_ to get on the property market I'd like that little corner of east london to stay just as it is thanks...

[liadnan]

Atleast until you've bought, hmm?

Coincidentally, this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758766/ (Grant/Drew Barrymore) is currently being filmed outside my friend Dr_Lovely's flat in Manhattan. And Barrymore was in Scream with Campbell. Make of that what you will.

My deduction from that is that Courtney Cox Arquette is due to show up outside my house any moment now.

I think it means that hollywood actresses are all in a pact to stalk liadnan wherever he might be, so you could be right. I expect to see Jessica Alba wandering down my street any day.

So how does he get hollywood actresses to stalk him? I ask merely for information of course...
