k... Once (many years ago) I travelled on the plane from Heathrow to Brussels with Barbara Castle and then shared baggage (sic) reclaim with her and Village People. :-( Blimey! I spent a few weeks shepherding Village People around Europe, so I may have been on that plane too - was it in the early 1980s? Ian |

so I may have been on that plane too - was it in the early 1980s? Yes, this was somewhere between mid-81 (I think) and mid-83. I think VP had flown in from the US (possibly elsewhere in Europe) -- not on plane I was on from Heathrow to Brussels. *Keith* |

I trust that, in the former case, you immediately sprayed the text 'Kilroy was here' on a nearby wall? :-) Niklas -- "I find that having a pint or two is a good problem-solving technique.

again Thank you! Sorry I didn't hang around but one of the VP crew got upset at Belgian Customes asking for some of their trunks to be opened and flung a couple of armfulls of mics etc. around the baggage hall. I beetled PDQ -- didn't like to lokk of the Belgian gendarmes with hands on their revolvers. :-( *Keith* |

"Oleg Kirov" wrote in message om... Just wondering how many famous people we see on our trains and stations... At various stations in the South East, I have seen the following people: Barry Cryer, Ray Dorset (from Mungo Jerry), Corbin Bernsen, Amanda Pays, Hugh Dennis, Zoë Wanamaker, Paul Ross, Michael Sheard (Mr Bronson in Grange Hill), and a few others I can't recall just now. Today I saw the actor Richard Dixon on Waterloo concourse at about 16.15 hrs. I imagine we all see a few from time to time. So far, I haven't seen any on trains. Alan Wicker, WB Picc. @ Knightsbridge. This was several years ago, when he was *very* much a celeb, these days, I probably wouldn't recognize him if he fell on me... -- Cheers, Steve.
