He's
A prick isn't he?

I've only met him a couple of times
and he seemed OK.

He always seems a bit pompous on TV though.

{edit}

OK, yeah, he's a prick. Just being polite here.

Don't
know why, it just stuck in my mind that you has said this in the last 'claim to fame' QOTW. He sounds like a bit of a prick tbh....

I probably did, and
I probably said he was a prick.

I was just having a rush of politeness there.

To tell the truth, I know him much better from the TV than I do in real life, so my opinion of him is based on the same as everybody else.

Prick . . .

Police camera action
Being on repeat most days presenting police camera action was probably the low point of his career.

Just googled him to make sure I was talking about the right person, and the first article that came up was from the torygraph about how he got a £2k fine and a 30-month ban for his 2nd offence of drink driving. This time just 3x over the limit & drove into a lamp-post whilst swerving his way home from a chinese takeaway.

I'm guessing he's not doing the new series....

Hah.
I knew he'd been caught before. Naughty boy.

Last time I saw him was my grandmothers funeral (she was his aunt). I gave him a lift to the church, and he dropped an empty fag packet in the car.

"Is that yours" I said, as we got out.

"Oh, yeah, sorry" he said, picking it up.

My life is just a rush of stars and glitter sometimes.

Xmas idea
You've got a good start to do his autobiography there?
