He walked past my stall in Graces Alley where I was selling my clay pipe jewellery (www.amelia-parker.com). We didn't even make eye contact. Steven Berkoff was there too sporting what must have been very hot black satin quilted trousers. He had a camera crew in tow. Being stuck in the alley meant I missed out on the march and all the entertainment going on inside Wilton's beautiful theatre, but you can't have it all.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09099069900570994344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6617787042475515385.post-24083991363967486792011-10-03T09:37:09.725+01:002011-10-03T09:37:09.725+01:00Poor little Dorset.

He may live in Dorset these days but he’s hardly “Dorset’s own…”ASLEF shruggedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15188861221455845621noreply@blogger.com
