I've spotted Hoon on my doorstep and front room on more than a few occasions as he was our MP. Always felt good to waste his time when he was canvassing

Yes was booked on 09:55 LGW - BGI

Had executive meeting (football related I understand) before departure.

Reading FC had booked a side first class office (related?) but I think he is a manager for Brighton?

Office was booked via Genie system on Monday.

Not a football fan myself but was aware of Daily Mail story before I posted. Hence my (related?).

Mr Poyet was there particularly early and staff were briefed to look after his wife whilst Mr Poyet was in the meeting.

Arrived with a Mr Barber in a chauffeur limousine. Mr Barber accompanied Mr Poyet into the meeting.

Assuming Mr Barber is his PA?

As I have heard he was given permission to speak to reading while on transit to the airport today and a room had to be found so he could speak.

Wheatear he goes or not is another thing.

He is a nice guy.

He was on 11:00am flight to BGI sat in 4E / F with his wife. We were in 1E / F.

He was on the phone throughout his time in the lounge, and also straight on his phone for a while whilst waiting for baggage to arrive. Priority tags did not work for any of us....

Andy Murray's mum in EDI lounge last Friday, presumably off to California to see son playing ping pong.

And I was on telly during the France v Scotland 6N match last Saturday. At about 59 mins the camera panned across our row. I'm not letting it go to my head though.

Last Friday, Victoria Pendleton was at LHR Galleries North with her partner.

It does seem right that a multiple world and olympic champion should have to slum it with the likes of me.
