So I took myself up to town, had a nice pub lunch and then toddled up to the record store. I was really early but was astonished to find other people in front me. Come on who was it? I was about fourth in line ( whilst queuing I did have my picture taken with Patti - she's gorgeous!)
When the time came for me to approach Meat's table my mind just exploded.
I was in a panic. He said "Hello". How the hell do you respond to such a kind word as hello? With a responding hello? No. I just blurted out "thanks for everything".
I meet my hero and my opening salvo is "thanks for everything". What a plonker.
Every time my brother sees me he mockingly says "thanks for everything".
After 20 years you'd think he'd drop it.
I hope, maybe, one day I will get the opportunity to do a M & G and redeem myself. On second thoughts, it could be too high risk.
Yeah I can't imagine meeting him, just have to try and remember he's a normal guy. I think I would probably just go blank trying to think what to say.
