Wynne Evans aka Gio Compario from the Go Compare adverts was in the Seahorse Bistro last night with ex Wales rugby international Rupert Moon
He's performing in Venue Cymru, I think?

Rupert Moon is general manager for the North Wales development rugby region as well as being patron of BayLife+ so I'd assume he lives locally for at least part of the time.  I'd imagine lots of people have spotted him, they just might not have realised it  :roll:.

Yes, he definitely is along with up and coming Welsh tenor Elgan Thomas from C-y-D.

Our youngest and a friend will be going along to support Elgan.

To be fair about Rubert Moon, I think he is a tremendous asset for our locality from what I have already seen of the gentleman.

BTW, it is in the Arena because the Agatha Christie play is still on in the Theatre.

Mrs Tosh and I saw Johnny Vegas and his lady friend last summer strolling along the prom at Old Colwyn.

We used to see Sherri Hewson in Mostyn Street a few years ago too, I think she lived at Conwy Marina then.

Does her brother keep a pub locally?

Yup, I think you're right, I had a senior moment there Nem.
Their mother passed away last year and she lived in Rhos, quite a good age too I believe, must be all that fresh air.

Today, on the Pier in Llandudno, I encountered comedian Johnny Vegas outside my kiosk.  Pictured below.

He was spending a few bob in the Joke Shop.  Very appropriate don't you think?

Correct Nemesis, and I posted this at the time, and the attached picture.

Roger Moore used to have a house in the Conwy area somewhere, I believe.

Celebrity in my shop today, of a juvenile nature.

Little Simon Barlow from Coronation Street,  the child actor Alex Bain.

I have a great picture of him and his family, in my pier kiosk, but they requested that I kept it as a souvenir and did not publish it, (being a child and all that)

This is a picture from Google of what the lad looks like, for those not acquainted with Corrie.

A customer of mine today,  the very elegant Maureen Lipman,  (pictured below)

Although I got her name wrong as I usually do when confronted with a famous face, she was very kind to me.
