88, looked every year. Not 100% sure he should be driving, either.

Thought I saw Lady Brady in a cafe around Primrose Hill today. Might have been mistaken as I was outside looking in. Does she live around there?

Im sure the Baroness would rather be dead than be seen in a cafe (even in primrose hill)...

She actually lives in Knightsbridge....... (Where else)....

Which allows me to bring up that I had my photo taken with Ian Rankin in a pub on Rose Street a while back, proving that he doesn’t just drink in the Oxford Bar. Very friendly chap, but that could have been because he was in the pub when I got there and was rolling out at closing time. Apparently you can leave a book for him to sign behind the bar in the Ox when he nexts comes in.

Nice one TC.

I might just have to pop in there when I'm up in Edinburgh next.

Wigan Ath. in the Matchbox, Shoreditch. Weirdly a couple of them supported WH when they were young through their dads even though they were brought up in the midlands.

Mark Lawerence last Friday night at the AFC Fylde and Wigan cup game as he was pitchside I was sorely tempted to speak to him about our chances for staying up as I know he does not like us , I was hoping To see Moyes at the game as he lives just down the road from AFC Fylde .
