ah McCartney's Ex - yeah should have realised macca/mukka one legged hate figure woman. I'd googled mukka and just found some unknown myspace style band promotion, and I was really confused as they're obv not famous, and they're more than one person.
i don't like enigmatist, he scares me. i always imagine him like a dementor, a cloaked wolf man with no face. probably wouldn't stand out in the larrick.
David Bowie once came to John Jones - about 20 years ago...
Dr legg has been in, as has the actress who played Zoe (i think her character was Zoe) on Eastenders - short dark hair. Oh - and musicians from U2, ColdPlay, Radiohead and Travis. And Jason Donovan!
In an interview in this weeks Heat with Alan Carr he says he got on a bus last week on Stroud Green Road. I can't help but think he would stick out like a sore thumb on SGR.
Scarlett Jonson AKA Vicki Fowler (first appeared on 'Enders with a very bad American accent, which she lost approximately 3 weeks later and replaced with a very bad Cockerney accent). Anyway, she's a member of Paradise Walk women's gym behind the Old Dairy. I've Legs, Bums and Tummed with her a few times.
Maybe that's who you were thinking of Kate Jones? Zoe had very long dark hair and has turned into Wonder Woman stateside.
Well Nickie, whoever that is, can I'm sure make the place considerably less shitty by moving somewhere else. I've lived in a number of places that people have felt quite happy to describe to my face as "a shithole". Although of course local areas have characteristics that make them more or less pleasant to live in (it's what most of sg.org thrives on) I tend to find that when people say that about an area they invariably mean either there are too many poor people or black people living there.
Possibly true, possibly a bit harsh too. I come from Dagenham, now that place is definitely a shithole. A definitive shithole. But it's not because of the people, its just a miserable wasteland of prefab post war housing and crumbling closed down industrial crap for miles on end.
Not to defend Nickie, but being a TV runner, she probably prefers the media wankville of Notting Hill which has plenty of both poor & black people. Even if she doesn't, it's a bit of a leap to assume she's an upper class racist for thinking SG is shit.
Sorry if it sounded like I was suspecting racism behind NH's comment - I wasn't (mainly because that's fairly unlikely with SGR). It was mainly because I took such offence when people were so rudely judgemental about where I lived (and in that instance, I know racism was involved), that on principle I object to ever saying that any place is a shithole. Even, in my view, if you've lived there for ever or it's where you come from.
But perhaps I'm over sensitive.
Saw Bernard Butler (ex-suede guitarist and current producer of Duffy and Black Kids records) playing football with (presumably) his kid in the funny tennis courty-bit between the parkland walk and crouch end. I asked him how to get to crouch end (because I needed to know, rather than because I was awestruck)

That's what I call a celeb spot.
As far as Doug and I are concerned he is a celebrity.
Does that count?
There's a list of Guardian compilers on www.fifteensquared.net.

Anyway, celebs. I saw Arabella Weir (again) jogging on Parkland Walk. I am nearly always holding a bag of dog crap when I see her*
