star spotting

just wondering, have you been out and about and spotted somebody famous. Today i saw Anh Do at Bankstown, i spotted Matt Newton in Newtown a couple of weeks ago and Ryan Johnson at starbucks in the city a couple of months ago, and living near the "shire" i see NRL footballers around all the time.

Ok, well not living in a ‘city’, we rarely see ’stars’ wandering the streets around here. I grew up in Sarina (and got out as quick as I could! lol)…I’m guessing nobody’s heard of it….EXACTLY..it’s a tiny town of nothing…so seeing two stars from water rats walking round the local supermarket took me by surprise.
We were standing beside Deni Hines at a Hooley Dooleys outdoor concert….Saw Braith Anasta (dont know how to spell it) at Airlie. I think that’s about it…pretty sad really :-(

Living in Townsville just doesn't bring that opportunity much. Seeing Rugby League players out and about is a natural part of life up here.

I've run into others when i've been in Sydney or Melbourne but that about it. Not counting all the drivers at different V8 events.

Well, I’ve met a couple of the maddest male country singers and a nice female country singer!

I’ve met Melinda Schneider, Adam Brand, Adam Harvey, Beccy Cole, Royden Donohue (a leeser known male singer who lives in a town 160km west of my home town) & Paul Costa and they have all either been performers at the local show or concerts I’ve been to!

Paul Costa actually performs at one of the big shopping centres in my home town at Christmas so I’m looking forward to catching up with him very soon!
