Everytime I go to my favourite salad bar or towards the comic book shop I keep seeing Jon Snow the Channel Four news presenter.
I'm always on foot (its lunch) and he's always either on his hybrid waiting to rejoin the road (having just bought lunch) or getting off his hybrid to go and buy some lunch.
He wears a helmet.
Doesn't Channel 4 have runners to do this for him?
Not much more than really, just though I'd name drop.... Thank you for reading.

A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

Today I realised that the creator of LOLCODE lives a few miles from me, and works at the University.
He sent me a message on Twitter.
"@wwwicked O HAI"
I LOLd.
No idea if he has a bike though.0 -
I used to walk the same way to stockwell station as tony Slattery. we'd quite often cross the road together at the pelican crossing.
Also used to drink in the same pub as the Mod character out of Only fools and Horses - the actor though, not the actual character, though he looked and dressed exaclty the same.DonDaddyD wrote:He wears a helmet.
i have seen him on his bike and under his helmet in the LCC magazine.0 -
He's also the president of the CTC.
And he was kicked out of the University of Liverpool after a student protest "in which he threw paint over the statue of Queen Victoria in Scarborough" (unsourced on wikipedia!)0 -
I've been nearly run over by Paxman before (was on foot, not cycling).
But I do work next to BBC TV Centre (and at the time was working in it) so it's not surprising. See loads of the other newsreaders quite often. And The One Show studio's in my building so I see Chiles and Bleakley several times a week.0 -

Well I'm 41, which is bloody old according to my kids.

I went to Liverpool Uni too and had heard about him being kicked out, but never heard of the Scarborough incident and Google reveals nothing, so I think someone's telling porkies at wikipedia :?
EDIT - ...so I've edited the Wiki page and taken it off.

Ngale, I can't believe you're putting his business 'out there' like that 0

I recall reading somewhere that Jon Snow was sent down for protesting about companies trading with apartheid South Africa - I think it was Barclays.0

I saw him yesterday in Condor being very loud and calling everyone by their first names, sigh!

That was pretty good, although when he said 'I'd like to ban all parking on the left hand side of the road' I was a bit confused.
That'll be my left or your left?
Still, I see what he was trying to say.0 -
At 62, he still goes like a train apparently.
Lucky woman, that Mrs Snow!0
