Can we try and keep on track, we seem to be heading back to pointless posts from people who don't know who other people are.

Either Google it, or remain in ignorant bliss.

Of what relevance is this detail to the story? Unless you're somehow suggesting that this fact contributed to the unkindness shown by BA?

Duly removed, and no I didn't mean to imply BA's unkindess was anything other than parking Mr Jenas next to happy Liverpool fan - CE was replete with disappointed Spurs fans (as was the cockpit).
Liverpool are renowned for have a significant Asian fanbase: the fellow in the Group 1 boarding queue on my flight to MAD was Singaporean and had flown over that night especially, despite not having a ticket for the game - impressive commitment to the cause.

Appreciated, thanks for editing and clarifying.

I was pouring a Gin and Tonic at the SFO BA Galleries lounge on my way to a work trip and he casually chatted with me as we were pouring our drinks. Of course I did not go gaga all over it and just had a casual conversation. We toasted and then parted ways! This was a few years back!

I was just about to post the same thing!

I’m sat (wearing a blue Gillette and glasses) on the bar chairs overlooking the atrium, right behind Clare.

Mick Hucknall was in the T3 Flounge on 24th May while I was on my way to CPT, no idea where he went.

He was sitting with his family right by the champagne bar/entrance, would have expected a celeb to avoid attention in a quiet corner.
