Times are hard for divorced man in this here fancy “The London”

They can’t even afford chauffer driven cars these days. Not even a cab!

Yes my dear 0.5 of a rather disinterested reader, whilst out front having a ciggie I beheld Sir Paul “Wacky Macca thumbs aloft” McCartney walking down the street. Even though he was wearing dark Aviator shades, every one he walked past stopped and did a double take and mouthed “That’s Paul McCartney” to themselves.

And Sir Paul was talking on his mobile as he strolled. I over heard a bit of the conversation.

“No, no. She wasn’t – no”

I wonder who he was talking about?

Really? But was it really, though? Was it, though? Was it REALLY Macca, though? Really? REALLY? etc. etc.

  Yes it was - I heard his voice, recognised the "turkey neck" and the patented "mop top" hair do.
  
  And a lot of other people recognised him as well.
  
  He is shorter than you think. But next to a one legged woman, who would notice.

He's right.

I //wasn't// able to convince him to marry me for five minutes and proceed to award me £5m for every minute we were married.

Darnit.

  He'd never marry you.
  
  "Too many legs, spoil the boff"
  
  Or something.

The judgment is on the Grauniad's website. Paragraph 16 is a classic.

58 pages - if you or your readers have the time.

  That is what he was dubbed in an english music mag in the 80's due to his habit of always being seen in public sticking his thumbs up in any picture every published of him. The mag decided it was his way of appearing young and zany and still relevant and such. Basically he is such a poser.
  
  Only English readers of a certain age would even remotley stand a chance of getting that one.
