Theres a joke in there somewhere using the phrase "probably just a ball boy" but I can't quite work it out.

Your second comment happens to be acutely accurate in this case in terms of destination and company,, excepting that I don’t consider the CCR to be a sports bar.

Really? That would be surprising considering his security concerns/key person risk and availability of his jet(s).... in fact I think its Apple policy that he must fly private for those reasons.

That’s what I thought too. It certainly looks very very like him. I may be mistaken though.

Whilst his music isn't my scene, I lost a lot of time for him when he went ahead and played a concert a couple of days before we went into covid lockdown one.
The measures had already been announced and his concert wasn't offering refunds.

Not quite on BA but staying at the Thistle Hotel courtesy of BA after missing a flight yesterday.
Talking to Simon Calder this morning in The Breakfast Restaurant that overlooks the runway. He was very friendly and approachable.
I was moaning about the lack of Black Pudding and a proper Coffee Machine - he said the staff were very good !!!
Perhaps I should have asked him where you clear UK Customs arriving at LHR and connecting on to Edinburgh
Back in my room 20 Minutes later he was on BBC Breakfast Time broadcasting from the restaurant terrace !!!

What a fantastic talented actor, really truly “best of British”.
He’d be such a good choice for the next Bond.
Lucky for me I wasn’t there I would’ve made an idiot of myself…..
