I had the pleasure of meeting him when he was in Edinburgh on the 'Lets Dance' tour.� I was walking through the Dean Village here and saw this pallid chap with a couple of other guys.

It transpired he was looking for a place to buy because had fallen in love with the place some time ago.� I've no idea if he ever bought it or not, but as Fritz says he appeared to be completely unaffected.� He asked if I had made the show at Murrayfield Stadium and I said that I hadn't, forgetting to add of course that I thought 'Lets Dance' was his most dreadful musical period. :-)
