We're just back from a fine week spent with the wife's family in Northern Ireland. On Easter Monday we went down to the seaside town of Portstewart where the kids drove go-karts and sailed inflatable boats around the pond, before heading for Morelli's famous ice cream shop on the seafront.
There was a bit of a queue for tables, however we spotted a family about to leave and stood close by to bag the table as soon as they left. It was only once they had stood up that the wife realised that she was standing in front of actor James Nesbitt. Realising that her normal persona of a mid-thirties professional woman was entirely inappropriate for the moment, she cleverly adopted one from a 15-year old schoolgirl and blurted out, "ooo - you're Jimmy Nesbitt!" Indeed he was. Of course we thanked them for vacating their sets for us, you're very nice people, and all that.
"You're Jimmy Nesbitt!"
