FA is the Home Of Real Sexy Football
Every year on March 8 - International Women's Day - Eriksson wanders from desk to desk at the stylish seven-storey office block, handing each one of his female colleagues a fresh red rose.Well, gold star for knowing when International Women's Day is, but...purlease...I do hope Mr Blunkett doesn't get this idea into his head!
My newsagent was really quite surprised that Faria looks Asian. I pointed out that one of her emails included "Inshallah" (which I think is a wonderful word and concept, BTW). That shocked him even more!
I used to see quite a lot of David Davies. This was in his pre-FA days, when he used to work as a reporter on Look North West. Often, on Saturday mornings, when I went to the local library and to the Dee Discount supermarket, greengrocers and newsagent, he would be going to the Off Licence. We said hello once or twice. But he wasn't the most glamourous celebrity on that pathetic parade of shops. Various people saw Lou Macari from time to time. I occasionally saw James Anderton at Church. He let me out into the queue for Communion once. A long time ago, when I used to go to Communion! When I was a stude, I was riding my bike down a connecting footpath with a 'No Cycling Sign' and Chief Constable Anderton was coming in the opposite direction. He gave me a look but Wayne Fontana was rumoured to live next door to the hairdressers. But I wouldn't have recognised him if I saw him. My hairdressers was at the other parade of shops.
Oh we had glamour all right in our little pocket of Sale West back in those days...
