Oh dear, now he must think I am stalking him. Is this where I sound like the cool kids and go hashtag 'Sorry Adam'?

Only business as no 1st on that particle flight
At USA immigration she went through the diplomatic (?) Queue

Have shared many a coffee in the lounge with the now retired footballers Roy Keane and Dennis Irwin formerly of Man Utd and Rep of Ireland fame many years ago when commuting to the UK. Went to school with Roy's older brother Dennis back in the day.

Met Eva Marie Saint some years ago on QF SYD-LAX after she completed filming for Superman Returns in Australia. That was also my last flight in the old F seats.

The gentleman was quite chuffed to spot Pearl Mackie (Bill Potts in Doctor Who) on our flight up to OOL last week.

Spotted Michael Portillo at Perth train station this morning. Apparently he's filming a series of Great Australian Rail Journeys.
Really should have got off and chatted to him, as when I got to work everyone was quite in a tizz to learn he was in town.

I am currently reading "Last Call for the Dining Car" - The Telegraph Book of Great Railway Journeys.

Not his work of course, but it would have provided a great "meet cute" opportunity.

Love Michael Portillo programs

Mick Molloy in the QF MEL J lounge last Friday, in a suit. Wasn’t sure it was him (a suit), until Jane Kennedy joined him later.

I know they’ve done lots since, but still think of them as The Late Show and my 4 cents a day worth of entertainment. (Or maybe it was 8).

One of my offices are near the courts in Melbourne so saw him frequently recently as he was determined worthy to stand trial for his alleged crimes. Let me tell you the people waiting in the steps there were certainly not there for kisses....

He is indeed doing and Australian railway show. I spotted him at Port Augusta and was spotted again on the bridge of a Sydney ferry.
