On the tube and saw a poster for a Bill Bailey show (British comedian).
That got me thinking about banal celebrity encounters, as I have had quite a few in my time.
Boxing day, about 10 years ago, I drove the kids to Westfield shopping centre, Shepherds Bush, to visit the Lego shop. As I tried to reverse park the car I saw Bill Bailey in my rear view mirror, waiting patiently in his car behind me. I found this incredibly distracting and took 3 attempts to park, an increasingly frustrated looking Bill Bailey in my rear view upon each attempt.
