Don't bring the grandparents again, they annoy celebrities
Years ago, when I was a mini-Jeccy (instead of the fat cunt that posts here before you every day) me mam and dad decided to go on a day trip to North Wales, where there was some fairly big events occuring (some cultural festival or something). Unfortunately they decided to bring my dad's parents along for the trip, who were ("They're dead Jim!") both daft as brushes. Me nan was a dopey sod, and my grandfather was, well, just violent.

While we're up there, we find out there's a big car show occuring quite close to where we were staying, so we all hop along. I'm only about 6 at the time, so I'm running about the cars hopping in (pretending to drive etc), which at the time also including some police cars, so I was happy. Me mam was happy too; there were a few celebs present and one of them was someone off Coronation Street called "Eddie Yeats the dustbinman" or "Geoffrey Hughes the actor" as he was known in real life. Dad was a car buff so he was at home.

So that just left the grandparents. Gran was a bit tired, so she sat in this small cafe area overlooking the cars. Me grandad discovered that the cafe served alcohol, and promtly got shitfaced, while eating a cream cake and spreading the cream all over his chin. After a good few jars, he looks over the balcony looking for us when he spots Geoffrey Hughes and all his bodyguards standing around him (it is Wales) in the middle of the display floor. He heads on down to the floor and makes a beeline for the old-time celeb, while gran is chasing after him. We spot him heading there too, so we all leggit over. Grandad gets there first though, and starts asking "Eddie" if he knows Dai from the ashcarts in Swansea, while we all try to drag him away and the security pull Geoffrey back from a drunk old angry looking man who was frothing at the mouth.

Oh happy days....
