I was watching the news last night and when the local news came on (Spotlight BBC) I only found myself watching with one eye. Until I heard...'roger taylor from Queen' . and I went : What?? Apparently he named a boat that is scheduled to sail round the world single handedly by a 67-yr old. That means he is/was in Portsmouth yseterday. Just checke their website and can't find any mention of him. Maybe over the weekend they'll update it. There is even a chance of some good pics coming out of it. <<< whispers>>> he did look .... roundish
No sign of any women in his life

I don't believe it - Trina rang me about 10.30ish last night after Wayne had woken her up and said Roger had been on the news - so I watched the other channel to see if he would be on that one but alas no he wasn't - so I scoured the BBC news website and found nothing - believeing all this time that Trina and Wayne had been lying - Damn me for watching channel 4 at the time

*Pfft* You wouldn't be saying that if you'd received the call and didn't get any information from her. Simple things such as what channel?? What was he doing? Blimin' waste of time - giving me important information after the event is not good

Blimin' waste of time - giving me important information after the event is not good LOL @ "what channel?? What was he doing?" You are probably if the only information would have been that he had been on the news and nothing else. What's the reason to call then I ask? ;D

*gg* me too Eliza, wish I had been a fly on the wall as it were.
@ Trina: I wasn't watching per se. Was busy doing sth else, can't remember what, but defenitely started paying attention when his name was mentioned. Was a quite a shock actually, didn't expect to see or hear about him on a local news station. More fool me, eh?

Thank god for madwoman being awake and half sensible! lol That sounds a bit different. I also wished I had listened to that telephone conversation! I found more pics of this event and will upload them with tonight's update I think and if anybody's interested. "Roundish" sounds more like a compliment. But who cares? OK, not me! ;D
