I deliberately went to loo loads of times and didn't see a single famous person. What use is that for blog fodder? Coming to think of it, kinda reminds of the day I had lunch at The Ivy.

I was desperately checking to see when he went for a pee so I could casually join him at the urinal.<br/><br/>But then I realised I'd probably not be able to go when I got there so wimped out.

Extremely down to earth bloke, who was a big fan of one of the wee pubs in the village where I live. And I think he was pleased to talk to someone who maybe wasn't a typical Bath Lit Fest attendee. Then I handed him a book to sign for the missus and he went all showbizzy by writing "Much love to a special lady".<br/><br/>Funny old world.<br/><br/>So then - Mr Sulu... Haven’t been to too many book signings.
