I only get the camp tags? Though at least this one I can claim I picked up on the philosophy pun first, and the Madonna bit second. It'd be a lie, but I can still claim it.

smiley - biggrin Good, innit?

No - he wouldn't have remembered me. I don't think he ever taught me. Was he wearing his bicycle clips?

No - I knew he was missing something when I looked at him smiley - biggrin

He is one of those people who exudes tallness though. He used to tower over me, but since I last saw him I've caught up, but it still feels like I should be looking up to him.

I can honestly say I've never worn a dress, but then I am a terrible representative for "my people" - I can't dance, I have no fashion sense and amyl nitrate makes me very sick.

Didn't know ACC was into drag - how interesting.

Actually, I didn't. It must have passed me by. I wonder if he's on the Great Gay Game.

His knighthood was temporarily delayed by a tabloid paedophilia smear.

I heard about that, I just wasn't aware of the gender. Pretty scummy for it to have happened and for it to have been mentioned last night and this morning.

The person I really feel sorry for is Anthony Minghella - he's had his funereal thunder stolen.
