Guest Jake Wifebeater Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Not so much met, but I'm related to Gillian McKeith. Her brother David is married to my half-sister, the poor bastard. Gillian was at the wedding with one of her annoying brats, who gave a master-class in attention-seeking and pissed everyone else off.This is nothing to be proud of. I am distantly related to someone who got famous from inspecting people's shite. She's not a doctor either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted December 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 I don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen B Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Shaking his hand and talking to him afterwards probably would. A brief meeting but a meeting nonetheless. I did openly say it was at a signing. He really liked the fact my boyfriend had the hardback editions of both books at the time and claimed he'd never seen them side by side before. I wouldn't class just asking a question in an open forum as a meeting.I was only asking with regard to myself. By your definition therefore I haven't met Mark Gatiss. Damn!

Lemonade Posted December 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 You are the turd most annoying person on here.I got the turd bit. I just didn't get why she would be his cousin, or why he would say third with an Irish accent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 I think Jake has got Welsh and Irish relatives...hence the accent (and one of them is a combination of Welsh AND Irish......Dai O'Rhea) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jake Wifebeater Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Apparently a thread on the theme "Rules For Being A True Grinder" is OK but a picture of a piano player with a naked lady at his birthday party is deemed to be unsuitable for musicians!!!!Well, I started that one. You've got me stumped bub, why would that thread not be OK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steven Dedalus Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 I suppose the best I've managed is:Richard AttenboroughDavid LynchDavid CronenbergWerner HerzogShirley McleanMike ScottPete SeegerBilly BraggAnd loads more.But I suppose none of these really count as I'm a journalist, and it's sort of my job to meet these people.
