oooooh... the glamour
May. 27th, 2003 05:52 amHad a brush with fame yesterday - I went to Hay-on-Wye for some bookish retail therapy, and accidentally ended up in the middle of a literary festival. Was mooching round the stalls and bookshops, and felt that someone was looming over me... looked up, and bloody hell! It was Stephen Fry! Closest I've ever got to anyone remotely famous!
Also bought some good books - an Anglo-Saxon primer and some books on linguistics, plus a John Fowles book that I hadn't read and a cheapo Jung paperback. OK weekend generally - pretty gloomy, but spent some time flying kites and eating Mexican, which lifted my spirits a bit.
