Sienna Miller and Jude Law on Regents Park Road, Primrose Hill. Was sitting at a cafe and she was tripping down the street with her two little dogs. She is tiny and very cute. Her dogs and mine touched noses so she came over and petted my dog. Jude Law hung back in a totally disinterested manner. This was before they split up after the nanny incident.

Brian Moore was Hooker for the England rugby team and later rugby commentator. No front teeth, ears like cabbages, face like a bull dog licking p*ss off a thistle. Nice bloke though. No idea if he cheated on anyone. But I can tell you he was arguing with the ticket seller at Chancery Lane underground.

Yes, that's him...Mr. Baxter. He looks much less scary in an anorak with grey hair I can tell you. I also saw Emily Watson walking along Southbank (Shad Thames)on Tuesday looking casual but very beautiful and Anna Friel ran passed me as I went into work in December (just before my Mat. leave) and nearly got run over by the car that was presumably trying to pick her up.


Do I get points for a jay-walking Anna Friel at least?

This reminds me of the time I was queuing for a press pass to get into Twickenham, when the ageing gent in front of me was being refused entry by an indignant young official. Exasperated, the man turned around, asking if anyone could confirm to the official who he was. It was Phil Bennett. Welsh rugby wizard of the 70's.

      Holland & Barrett is coming to Lordship Lane

      By Sue · Posted

      I agree re rents, but I don't think you can compare Croydon and Bromley with East Dulwich. Different kettles of fish. They both had, or possibly still have, big what used to be called "shopping centres" rather than just high streets. I think the one in Croydon is being "regenerated" or whatever the word is, isn't it? Also shopping habits are changing. Where once you would go to a physical  shop to buy things, now many things are bought online, where apart from the convenience there is more choice, and you can easily compare prices and see reviews. Re Lidl in Dulwich, I knew a very well off person with a house on the Thames in London plus various other places including a flat in Venice (!), who shopped in Lidl because she said their parmesan was excellent 😀 My grandmother used to be very sniffy about M&S (in the days before it became known by its initials) 😀 I think it would be great to have a Lidl nearer than Camberwell or Peckham, but I can't see it happening, sadly. I'd also like to see a Waitrose, preferably replacing Sainsbury's, but that isn't going to happen either, also sadly.

      An Aldi or Lidl at the Harvester site would be useful. But, there’s a Lidl close by in Peckham.
