Part 2 from a long time ago......29th October 2011

Back at the end of October last year, I wrote a short post about a random happening.  It involved the actor, Neil Morrissey and the Piccadilly line tube.  Well he had a friend with him, whom I knew was an actor too but for the life of me, I couldn't remember his name.
(Overcome with complete infatuation for Mr. Morrissey)
But sitting here tonight, watching Silent Witness (fantastic programme), I found myself face to face with the 'other' actor.  He turns out to be called Adrian Dunbar.
Well Mr. Dunbar has a wonderful CV and fabulous taste in shirts and watches!!!!

Spontaneous random happening

I was on a mission.  
As the train pulled into the station before we got on, I noticed one of my favourite local actors sitting in the carriage.  So I dragged my friend to that particular one.  We sat a seat away.  Then I noticed his friend's gorgeous watch strap and commented on it. His friend and I then had an interesting conversation about vintage mexican silver and a Parisian watchmaker.  His friend is also an actor but I can't remember his name, although he happened to be wearing a fabulous pink shirt that much I do remember.
At that point, we saw another friend but at the other end of the seats.  We had a quick chat and then it was our stop.
As we got off, making sure we went past Mr. Actor, I said to handsome actor (Neil Morrissey), "are you from Crouch End?"   To which he replied, "Crouuuuchon" (with a French accent).  We laughed and got off the tube.
Me blushing!!!!!!
My friend Nicola was suitably impressed with my chutzpah!!!!!

Seeing Red!

It was about 7.30pm on a Friday night, last night in fact and the platform at Leicester Square was very crowded. The next Piccadilly line tube to Heathrow was imminent, that meant no waiting - phew! As a Londoner growing up on the tube and a regular user, I knew the drill.....cram as many people in as possible.

Thankfully, I found myself with some breathing space and a chance to look around.

It was at that point that I had to double check what I was seeing.

Red was the colour of the day.

There was a red pea coat, a man's v-neck jumper, a pashmina, coordinating bag and shoes, another coat, little fitted jacket, two little girls wearing matching cardigans and a pair of incredibly high stripper stilettos!

Red was everywhere. It was as if all the red items of clothing had migrated into the same tube carriage, all at the same time.

What was going on?

Had I missed out on getting the memo????
