I was surprised I thought her ole man Michael had his own jet
Must confess this was a couple of years ago when we were living in Bermuda

A couple of weeks ago -- Tim Burton on BA 283 - LHR to LAX. I was in Club. He was in First. He looked a little grumpy as he collected his luggage at LAX.

Sterling Moss OBE at LGW North, who proved negotiating the IRIS machine is infinitely more tricky than the Nrburgring. Who like many others before him (that much I am sure) actually managed to break the darned contraption

Oh, I thought you were going to say you met a different kind of celeb at LGW today.

BTW, I've now mastered the IRIS machine ^

I'm pretty certain that Ed Norton is sitting opposite me in T5B Galleries Lounge, however, I'm too shy to ask.

His hair is longer than I've seen in films, but the voice is unmistakable (he talks in the same tone as when he narrated 'Fight Club'.

I'm about to board BA279 to LA, and suspect he could be joining me. I'm guessing he'll be on the UD or in FIRST though...

Paul McKenna was in 3k behind me on the 269 LHR - LAX. A bit of a DYKWIA by all accounts.

Jenni Falconer on the BA1442 to Edinburgh this morning. Sat next to her and she appeared to be a very nice lady.

Michael Portillo was in T5 on the 24th July - forgot to post... As an aside, used to love his character in Spitting Image - he always used to drive into the Cabinet meeting in a tank, crashing through the walls...

Golly! She's slumming it! Though I guess she would at least fit in those seats

Not again! Are Posh's Premier privileges in peril!?

If she was arriving on NZ, she could have connected on to BD (depending on where she was going), though perhaps she has to draw the line somewhere.
