Also David Shayler
I'll post this because I can't be arsed pearoasting the creepy tale of my mum's prediction of Princess Di's death.

Out in Edinburgh once my we spotted a bloke in the Cameo bar in Tollcross who looked a lot like David Shayler. This was when he was apparently hiding out in France and couldn't enter the country without getting lifted.

Later, when my mate was stood next to the guy at the urinals, he drunkenly said: "You know you look a lot like David Shaylor."

To which the lookalike replied: "Sorry, never heard of him."

After turning away to walk out the bog, the man paused, turned back to my mate and said: "Would that happen to be the former MI5 agent who . . ." He then proceeded to quickly rattle off Shayler's entire life story in intricate detail, before walking out the pub and disappearing for good.

Left my mate a bit shocked and confused. We always thought it was odd that in the space of one second the guy decided first that he didn't know who David Shayler was, and to then display an encyclopedic knowledge of his life.

Was he really in France?
