Early 1996. India.
I was recently married to the fair Mrs Moans ("TFMM"), who hails originally from that alluring land. We'd taken a trip (on Uzbek Airlines, transferring via Tashkent, which is a whole other story) to meet the extended family. So they could check my teeth, as it were, as one might a horse for sale in the Classifieds.
Anyway. It just so happened that our trip coincided with the Cricket World Cup, many matches of which were taking place in India (I seem to recall some were in Pakistan as well, as a sort of Sports for Peace initiative). Quite livened the place up, in a cricket-mad nation.
We take off. The pilot announces words to the effect of 'ladies and gents., let's have a big hand for our honoured guests, the Zimbabwean International Cricket Team!' For, being a nation in Southern Africa, of course that is where those strapping caucasian lads hailed from.
As I accompanied TFMM down the steps to exit the plane, not immediately understanding what was happening, I was suddenly politely but firmly grabbed by a couple of attendants and ushered towards the brass band goings-on, paparazzi cameras a-clicking, and so forth, while the rest of the passengers were kept strictly apart, heading for baggage collection.
Meanwhile TFMM, being rather more swift on the uptake than I, had twigged what was happening and was enthusiastically trying to get to me through the throng, to pull me away and minimise further embarrassment all round. Equally enthusiastic were the attendant security chaps, who perceived some deranged cricket groupie trying to get her hands on some hunky Zimbabwean athletes, and were resolute in their scheme to repel her.
Next question please.

He'd been drinking in excess.
Should probably stop taking the wife with me.

He didn't know that coz everyone thought Keanu was the father as he was having an affair with Sharon. Keanu was killed in the Vic on Christmas day by Linda after the argument at the wedding when Sharon found out that Keanu was the kidnapper of Alby. Linda stabbed him because he was trying to strangle Sharon.
He was buried under the floor of the caff, but discovered months later during the renovation after the fire. Of course Phil eventually found out and so did Jack, who dug up the body to get Denise's necklace that was dropped in when they were burying Keanu. Of course Denise was with Jack before that and she is also the mother of Raymond who is also Phil's son. Of course Ben, Phil's other son is in jail in the US for fraud trying to get money for Lola's cancer treatment. Kathy, who was also married to Phil is Ben's mum. She went out to see him in prison. She was in the pub as well when Keanu was murdered and helped cover it up.
Grant has lived in Portugal for years now, but he was married to Sharon before Phil but that's another story....
There you go. Happy to help.

Another chap I met said he was a songwriter. He said he had a song that some band was going to Record. I can't now remember the details, but the song was called something like "three little words" and the band were the sons of someone famous. I had no reason to think it was lies, but I've never been able to link it to anything. My big worry is that the songwriter was someone really famous and I was oblivious. I'm not ruling out Ray Dorset. He had that sort of look, but I doubt I'll ever know...
It was quite odd. JRM, Mrs JRM and a couple of the kids. Jacob being filmed standing in a dog toilet looking out to sea whilst our dog barked at him. I don't think the French people recognised him (the chap looking at his phone was a French man seemingly wearing only his underwear, as if that wasn't odd enough) or were particularly phased by a film crew being there. Using bloody Eurotunel next time.
More interesting was some poor lass on her mobile desperately trying to be a "journalist" for a sleb mag, chasing some sleb gossip while trying to remain a reasonable and polite human being. I felt really sorry for her.
