He was in zee-cars and other things and supports the barcodes so I thought you might be friends.

I suppose I could claim to have known him before he became famous and to have rejected his friendship after that over the top performance in I Claudius.
But I'd be lying.
Have I ever mentioned that I knew Eric Burdon's mum?

Re: How hard is it to order some lunch?
It's no secret that I have a preference for McDonald's coffee. I have also become quite addicted to their grilled chicken wraps over the last few months.
A couple of months ago, when they were running their chicken wrap/Chipotle sauce promotion (big signs and adverts with the word "Chipotle" plastered all over), I visited one of their restaurants and had the following dialogue with one of their servers:-
Me: "Hello, I'd like a grilled chicken wrap with chipotle sauce and a coffee"
Server: "Would you like crispy chicken or grilled chicken?"
Me: "Grilled, please"
Server: "With barbecue sauce?"
Me, pointing to the Chicken wrap sign, which clearly stated "with either Chipotle sauce or <some other inferior, unwanted sauce>": "yes the Chip-Ol-tay."
Server :"The barbecue sauce?"
Me: "Yes."
...
So I got my order then, while walking out, overheard the server saying "why couldn't he just say 'barbecue", like everyone else?"
