HH,

I think Alun Armstrong may have been in Glasgow to film an episode of Garrow's Law.

I was back home last weekend and I am sure it was Phil Oakey of the Human League in Sauchiehall Street, staring up Scott Street.

He was almost totally bald.

Mind you so am I, and he did not remark upon my baldness, so why should I remark about his.

I suddenly feel bad.
Whaddya mean, keep down? Why, they couldn't hit an elephant from this dist-

A very forlorn looking Nicola Sturgeon on Buchanan Street - almost as if she carried the woes of the world on her shoulder pads.

If only Megrahi had had the decency to die late last year.

Most worldly famous - Gerard Butler in Cineworld Glasgow.


Personal fave - Graham Linehan, 'Father Ted' creator in Mono, veggie pub/restaurant.

Stretching the definition of 'famous', I saw Colin and Justin in the big Salvation Army place on Dumbarton Road last week.

Doing something suitably florid in Canada according to their website .. been there for a while by the looks of things.

Cardboard cut outs perhaps as they are to be heard expounding the virtues of said store at various points on the site.

I once told Travis Heally at a gig at the Art School (before the fame and the fortune ) that his music was shite and he should take up plumbing or something to pay the bills. :oops:
