I often bump into Hugh Fraser (Captain Hastings in Poirot) in my local Post Office, looking much older (don't we all?).

Anyone else constantly bumping into an ageing star?

Hugh Fraser was also an excellent Duke Of Wellington, in the Sharpe series with Sean Bean. A fine actor. Perfect as Captain Hastings.

I used to bump into June from "Terry and June" a lot, but I think she has moved now.
Last summer Max Clifford overtook us

I live in Liverpool and though he may not be a major celebrity in the sense of the word, I do often find myself on the bus with Allan Williams as a fellow passenger since he lives a few streets away from me.

Williams of course is "the man who gave away The Beatles" in 1961 but a local legend in Liverpool nevertheless. I do often sit there and wonder how he must feel since he did play a major part in The Beatles earliest days and yet there he is sharing a bus with the public whilst Paul and Ringo happily cruise around in much more luxurious modes of transport.

I tell you what Elliot, I only recently quizzed our boardhost here, as to what Allan Williams` name was, please pass on my regards.
I met him on a day I worked with the Pete Best band in Liverpool.

I certainly will pass on your regards if and when I pluck up the nerve to talk to Allan! He is well known for being understandably abrasive and prickly so the last thing I wish to do is upset or annoy him in any way so I simply let him be.
