The Jonas Brothers doing a meet-and-greet type thing with about 50 high school girls at the delivery entrance to the Warner Theater in DC. Viewed from my office window at 8 am this morning. Girls were totally running through traffic to try to keep up with their Escalade when they left.

I'm quite fond of Haunch Of Venison Yard, near where about 3 weeks ago I saw a guy who looked a whole lot like R Crumb.

There are gazillions of telly trucks over at Great Ormond Street right now because that's where they took the fox-mauled twins. No kid getting treatment is more depressing than watching patients at the neurological hospital on Queen Square having a fag in their tracksuits, while rocking an IV stand.
I live a block away from all of this but on the plus side, the pharmacy at the homeopathic hospital is a cheaper Holland and Barrett and the tiny coffee shop across from GOSH is the best in London.

And here's another boring sighting! I saw Jarvis Cocker crossing the road in Aldeburgh, Suffolk. I followed him into a deli where he purchased some pies. Pretty exciting eh?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. What kind of pies? I need to know. JK. That is a good one. I would probably have died a swift fangirl death if I saw him out in public tbh.

Joek or no, I was interested too. I'm not sure what precise pies he had - he was having a discussion with this other person about how many they had to feed and I felt a little rude trying to eavesdrop, also I had my son standing next to me saying "tell him you prefer the Shatner version of Common People" so I was trying to sush him, but they were from this delicious range - http://www.pieminister.co.uk
― Ned Trifle (Notinmyname), Friday, 13 August 2010 11:55 (thirteen years ago) link
I was rather trying to think of something to say to him that didn't sound too much of a cliche and which he might have appreciated. And about ten minutes after he had gone I suddenly remembered this...

I bet no-one asks him about that. I would have looked super cool.

He is generally very kind to people who approach him - even if they're drunks in Soho at 2am.

I had to mediate an art talk between Jarv and one other at the Tate; afterwards the Talks woman took all of us to dinner. We decided to carry on afterward and made our way to Dean Street from the restaurant in Lexington Street and Jarvis was apprehended so often it was like watching a politician making his way down a rope line...entirely filled with drunks. We didn't want a posher version of same so we swerved the Groucho for Jerry's Theatre Bar and a Bontempi organ where Jarvis wound up leading the room's singalong to Andy Williams tracks.

Although I've lived in this neighbourhood for almost three years, the past two weeks have offered me my first hungover-and-going-for-coffee-in-sweatpants sightings of Rupert Everett, who lives around the corner. First time I was sitting with a bunch of gay friends on a corner table outside the pub, and he stared at us (one of them was a well-known gay journalist) while passing - three times - and the second was last Saturday when I was getting on the Tube at Holborn. It was 8am, so somebody getting out to go home had clearly ridden the Slut Express and picked up a newspaper on the way.
