Its not every day you bump into Chris de Burgh and Miss World in the same day! Just met them at lunchtime at the Curragh racecourse, outside while I was waiting for He Who Should Be Obeyed to hand over the shopping money outside his workplace! I frantically searched for a piece of paper, and after a little chat to each of them (Mrs de Burgh smiling in background) they signed autographs…middle pic.
There was a little old lady standing beside us singing “Lady in Red……..” How many times has he heard THAT , I thought. Oh God, I hope they didn’t think she was with me!

When I first saw the title of this post, I thought it said “Starbucks”. You think God is telling me it’s time to go downstairs and make a pot of coffee?

I AM SO JEALOUS!! I like Mr. De Burgh alot. I wore a red dress for my wedding 2 days before Christmas, and my husband sang “Lady in Red” to me at the reception. There are several people that I would love to meet, but am afraid I would lose all of my faculties and stand there with a stupid grin, babbling incoherently. I did behave fairly well when I met Peter Furler (other than telling him I loved him and would gladly leave my family and follow him around the world), but that’s only because my daughter -read: my anchor to sanity – was there with me, making sure I didn’t embarrass her.
