Howdy,

A pal of mine fixed the boiler in Kirsty Wark's house. She was very nice apparently. But all my pal could talk about were the thongs drying in the laundry room. At her age too. ::):

I had to pick Kelly up at Glasgow Airport and drive her to the Awards Ceremony. She had done 'TOTP' and caught a flight straight back to Glasgow. I spoke to her quite a few times during the evening

I hoped you slipped him a tenner - the poor man's destitute as we shall find out tonight.

On the subject of Shieldinchers, I saw the actress who plays Shirley going into the Ladies at the Tron Theatre though that was quite a while ago now.

Met Brian Cox a few years ago at a media meeting while i was @ the beep.

Very nice guy, had a great chat with him about the poorly funded film production sector in Scotland.
