Yep. An ex page 3 model turned singer in the early 90's. I was in a club in London and there she was. Couldn't miss the opportunity. My brother thought I was crazy. I went over and said to her 'Let me buy you a drink and you can tell me all about yourself?' Trying to pretend I didn't know who she was.

Her reply 'You probably know enough already?'

Me 'Well you can buy me a drink and I can tell you all about myself' (quite wittyh I though)

She laughed mockingly and sent me on my way. I went back to my brother who couldn't stop peeing himself. But I called it there again, that she preferred the fairer sex.......

Many years ago one of the FHM “High Street Honeys” used to work for me … I failed miserably in my attempts to sway her away from her mid-50s (she was early 20s), loaded, boyfriend.

I waited for Jason Plato outside a laundrette once. He was well rude.

There’s a blast from the past. Was a great idea pre-social media!

It was indeed. I’d read an article in one of the ever so popular lads mags of the time. I think it was with Martine McCutcheon and she was saying that ordinary guys are too intimidated to approach her. That put the fire on my belly. It was soon distinguished!

It was the mumbling and lack of handshake that did it.

That, armbands and the dumbing-down of Ambwulence were classics.

I used to work at a pub that was mini le bonk's local. Often used to have a chat to her, lovely lady. I was 19, she was probably 30....I would. Her future husband, a guy called Sebastian was loaded and the son of her producer or something. Punching well above his weight. hehe

Have you listened to JP’s “Fuelling Around” podcast with Chris Harris which came out this week? They discuss that thread. Very entertaining.
