I’m watching the One Show, Dion Dublin is on it. I wish he was my Uncle. He seems such a lovely bloke. He’s mine, who is yours?

Yeah and the fact that he’s now a tiler around here. He was instrumental in the efforts to save the club from liquidation though so mainly that.

only kidding. I’d like to have a pint with both, would be bantz for sure.

oh yeah, that’s why I said I don’t like him on that show rather than in general

saw some behind-the-scenes type thing about a player or a team, I forget, but he was in it and talking, and he seemed really lovely

He’s not my dad but I have eaten in his fancy restaurant in Colombo, House of Crab or something. I had a beer and some crab, it was very nice but dear god it was expensive! Not sure if he was in the kitchen cooking the crab or if he just put his name to the restaurant. I’m going to assume the former I think.
