Wot ho

I help out at a charity that my friend helps out to. He's a life peer, so not a real one!

I sold a classic car I owned during lockdown to a Lord, but not a real one, one of those titles that you can buy off the Internet.

My Dad wasn't a lord or anything, but he advised government a lot and was regional chairman of the CBI with Digby Jones, so spent quite a lot of time in the house of lords and commons, so I know quite a few lardy dars by proxy.

When I started dropping some Lords names, I became suspicious when he didn't know any of them, so I enquired further and he admitted it was a bought title 😂

No my friend is definitely one. I'm not naming him on purpose, he's a bit famous in certain circles. Not A list celeb but known. He went into politics but still occasionally treads the boards. He introduced me to Gandalf!

Apologies, I wasn’t implying anything. It was just a funny story.

No need to apologise, silly. I'm just an ageing firefighter that happens to have bumped into a few people through work. Common as muck me

Same, except I was never a firefighter 😂

Probably a good move.
