Who: Chris OâDowd, star of The Clinic and The IT Crowd
Where: Dublin Airport
When: Around 20 minutes ago
Chris was wearing a wind breaker of some form and a rather gammy looking baseball cap and looked like a bit of a pleb. He has his usual stubble and looked like he had the weight of the world on his shoulders as I passed him on the esculator on the way up to the Garden Terrace

[font=tahoma][size=3]When: Saturday, about 3.30pm[/size][/font]
[font=tahoma][size=3]Other notes: Frank looked extremely content as he soaked up the afternoon sun. His squinting made him look more like father jack than he would have wanted[/size][/font]
Live spot. Marty Whelan with a lady who I assume is the wife. Tall Ships Dublin. Marty is resplendent in a cream suit, Bertiesque in colour the kind of suit that Louis Copeland pawns off on mug punters at the end of the sale. Marty is old and grey these days.

Where: Irish Olympic House, Pentonville Road, London
When: circa 10:30pm, Thursday August 9th, 2012
Ken was having a pint and a cigarette on his own on the second floor outdoor terrace. I asked him for a light of a cigarette and he obliged. I discussed Cian OâConnorâs showjumping bronze medal with him for about seven or eight minutes, which he said meant âabsolutely nothingâ to him.
