Am at work today – Sunday – and have just realised that Top of the Pops is now on at the weekends … so is anyone dead famous in the building today? [Looks up dressing room schedules online...]
Oh yay! The Robster, the psycho-bitch with the large chest, and the rather cool Kanye West are all in the building, who shall I go and stalk first .. ?
I started my blog as a continuation of the daily write-up that I did when I got 500 people to give me 50p so that I could buy an iPod.
There's a lot of tube related stuff on this site due to me being a former World Record Holder for travelling around the entire network (275 stations) in the fastest time possible back in May 2004.
After living in London for the first 33 years of my life and working for the BBC News website I moved to Charleston, South Carolina in the USA in May 2006 for three and a half years before moving back to England and back to work for the BBC in November 2009.
So for ten weeks in June, July and August 2009, I drove 20,000 miles around the the lower 48 contiguous states of the USA visiting towns and places that shared the same name as places on The London Tube Map.

Don’t you have any WORK to do?
Fixed one print queue problem, a login issue and kicked off a rebuild already .. so yes, but weekends are notoriously quiet anyway – and besides, I meant after my shift has finished ..
print queue problem – restart spooler on said server (1min allowing for logging in) login issue 40 seconds to find the account and unlocked etc – or longer if machine has the patch cable not in and kicked off a rebuild about 3 minutes if ghosting. I know its only about 10 minutes real work, but there is all the waiting for the work to appear! That is the hard work!
And fetching the teas in, that’s quite time-consuming too.
Note I said ‘fetching’. Any similar sounding words should be used in the ‘porn’ thread below… ~cough~ And i’m not going to explain that if you don’t get it!
Right lets go through the pros & cons of stalking each of these stars:
Firstly, Kanye West:
Pros: Rather cool, has lots of “bling” and may let you join his “posse”
Cons: May be hidden behind a big bodyguard, who is carrying a gun and will shoot on sight! (Probably works for the Met Police
;D )
Mariah Carey:
Pros: Shes a member of the opposite sex, without a BF as far as I know & erm… anything else?
Finally, Robbie Williams:
Pros: English, good looking member of the same sex
, travelled on the tube at sometime, rich & a nice guy
Cons: English, good looking member of the same sex
, travelled on the tube at sometime, rich & a nice guy
Let us know who you decide to stalk. I’d say Robbie because at least you know your safe!
Oops, forgot Mariah Careys Cons:
TOO MANY TO LIST!
always Robbie!!
n take sneaky fotos!
IS there noone nice!? Tsk, see if you can shoot Robbie…
Well .. have just clocked the Robster coming in! There was a hideous amount of people trying too hard to look pretty as well that were obviously part of his entourage … and they all started cat fighting with Mariah’s entourage.
Ok, that’s a lie .. but there’s a lot of people just milling about down by the studios/dressing rooms trying to look important, and then I wander by whistling, jeans and scraggy t-shirt trying not to look out of place!
I’ll go back for another wander in a minute …
Woah- what happened to that blog entry that was there earlier?
I know you occasionally delete comments, but an entire blog entry?!
That’s just unheard of!
Something I was experimeting with – Mikey’s comment was unfortunately also deleted, but he was faaaar too keen in commenting so soon!
Bah.
I can’t actually remember what was in it, though..
Which is annoying..
Neither can i, and i commented!!
Wot, they film TOTP on Sundays now, as well?
just to let u know that a lot of “normal ” girls or “good” girls do get turned on by porn,talking from experience here!

“Fetching…?” Similar sounding words that are ‘nasty’and belong in the porn post…?? Fetching…Hmmm Ok then…more British slang I need ‘splained…
I say Robbie is the best stalking candidate listed. Take some photos and post them here! If you dare.
Could you get disciplined for taking photos of celebs Geoff?
Kris…
“Felching” is the word I’m referring to. It’s too rude to appear in dictionary.com or wikipedia, so I can only refer you to this article here! Don’t say i didn’t warn you in advamce though!! (Not suitable for minors!)
Why isn’t it suitable for minors?
Just because they work in dark caves? T’shh!
My goodness. Well OK then. I have heard of that kind of “activity” before but I never knew it had a name. Eeeek. I actually had a friend who was an OR doc. The stories he told about the er…problems… that people would come in with (in that same vein) boggled the mind.
Oh, is F5-Chris considered a minor in England? What is the age of consent there?
Legal age of consent is 16 here.
However most seem to think 12-13-14 is fine. When I say most I mean CHAVS!
No no, I’m legal.
Word play, see?
Minors/Miners.
Geddit?
Chris–You’re a miner??? I thought you did video work for a living?? At least Chris is not a chav.
No.
I’m a student.
A ‘professional tax dodger,’ if you will.
The film and video work’s what I want to get into..
Geoff… I think you should be *really* careful when making info from the BBC’s private intranet available publicly like this… or maybe you know that in this case it is OK?
