            Lemmy tryin to style u and ur buddy BH? Thats pretty awesome!!
            Trick, i don't understand dudes that are scared of naked chicks man. My buddies are pretty weak like that too. Mind u our stip club is a dive but its freakin hillarious sometimes

            I kind of hate "strip clubs" but I like "titty bars" if that makes any sense. To me, there's a huge difference between a spot where some broad is trying to hustle me into paying for a lapdance (or whatever else) every ten minutes and a place that's just a divey kind of bar with a naked chick on a pole. The former is pretty awful, but I tend to like the latter. If I'm drinking why not have naked chicks there too?

            AND THE CHICKS AT JUMBO'S AREN'T EVEN NAKED, DUDE, DAMN.

            I haven't been in Bushwick since Bushwick was part of Real Brooklyn not Joking Around Brooklyn.

                  Alison Goldfrapp from Goldfrapp came to view my house which was up for sale. Her agent had informed  me not to look at her and defo not to speak to her…I hate all that crap and when someone tells me something like that... Well needless to say I will go out of my way to do just about the opposite....
                  She arrived, rocked up in my kitchen, shades on, head down, I walked in gave her a beaming smile and said,  " Hi " we chatted for about half an hour, while her agent glowered in the corner! [emoji38]

                          I think this is the best example of "I touched a celebrity" in this entire thread.

                            Righto zwer! It'll give me something to investigate and lighten the working day with. Don't worry @zwer i wouldn't post any guesses.

                            Just finished reading (not riding!) a Booker nominee from 2014. Anyone who loves a fertile imagination and great storytelling should check out The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell.

                              Got another.

                              A few years back we got a call from Alex Thompsons office.  They wanted to know if we would let a room or rooms out in our house to an "A list celeb:", who was going to crew with Alex on the "Round the Island" race.  As we know Alex and Co, we said sure.

                              Couple of days later a car pulls up outside and Ewan McGregor comes to the door.  He does not drink "yeah, I'm a reformed functioning alcoholic", but he does smoke.  I smoked at the time, so for 2 evenings we'd sit around the pond shooting the breeze and smoking with him.  He'd be on tea and P and me would be on something a little stronger.  When Alex came to pick him up at the end of the stay, Ewan heard him coming through the garden gate and yelled out "Fuck off, I'm staying here"

                              Such a lovely guy, I have no photos because I did not want to invade his privacy by asking.

                              @Sarina always asks for the "Ewan McGregor room" when she comes to stay now.

                                Great story @Giles  I remember watching a documentry on Ewan McGreger and his mate riding motor bike's around somewhere and he came across as a pretty level and down to earth bloke then.

                                  Lovely. I'm a big fan of Ewan McGregor, and The Ghost Writer is one of my favourite movies.
