Good Morning Wales and Manchester, Who's Next Then?

Chris Evans | 12:28 UK time, Friday, 22 October 2010

Currently in the middle of a round of interviews to do with you know what - and if you don't - it doesn't matter.

Wales just pointed out how instrumental Wales has been in my life. Billie and Dr. Who; and Celtic Manor being the venue of The Ryder Cup where Tash and I met for the first time.

Indeed, if Sir Terry hadn't built his golf resort to realise one of his many dreams, then there wouldn't be a little Noah running around Berkshire today.

Crazy, life, isn't it ? Wonderful of course, but crazy.

Right - off to record my first ever hologram - and then One Show and Paul O'Grady to talk more about that thing that's in the shops now.

    CLP, I think i know what you mean about knowing what what is all about . You confuddled me last night by appearing on my tellybox, you naughty man ;-)))

    Debs, Cant beat a Friday pie ;-))

    I am entrusted with doing the weekly shop tonight . A huge honour , as Mr MC banned me from food shopping a long way back.
    So i've got me list, my quid for the trolley , and i'll be off to wander round the soopermarche . If you dont see me at FNWC, its because i'll still be whizzing round on my trolley .

    Hiya

    It is a strange and wonderful world - enjoy being a hologram Chris!!!

    Debs, might need to pop over and borrow your oven for while - mine blew up yesterday when the nice workmen turned on the electricity they had turned off earlier!

    I'm thinking we need to learn to love the stir-fry - Mr Seza is booking his table at the pub!

    I've just suggested to him that this year we all might be able to have Christmas Dinner or Christmas Presents but not both!!

    D'oh!!!

    ARFternoon troops!

    Firstly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY AS!!

    Secondly, THANK YOU RIPS for brightening up my day and treating me to lunch. You turned a dull day in the office into a lovely lunchtime interlude, even if you did take the mickey out of my registration number and spoiler! You can't beat an impromptu blog meet, and I hope the rest of your weekend is fine and dandy sir!

    Can't blog much today as MD is in (I also have some work to do, don'tchyaknow!). Will look forward to catching up on FNWC tomorrow morning with a strong cup of coffee.

    Love, peace and happiness.

    Chris,

    It is a funny old life indeed. For instance, Deevs and I have Russell Brand to thank for getting us together. Apparently, you have said that Sir Terry Wogan was all ready to retire in 2008 and you were all fired up to take over from Jan 2009 but that, as a result of the "scandal" surrounding Messrs Ross and Brand, he decided to stay on to aid the image of the 大象传媒. So, if you had been doing your breakfast show and not Drivetime when I started blogging in August 2009, I wouldn't have been blogging, if you see what I mean, and would never have gone to the O2, nor met the divine Deevs!!

    Not the being famous bit or the gettign alot of attention bit, (although am sure it's nice too) but the meeting lots of interesting people... and being in an authoratative position - know what am sayin' CLP!!!!!!!!!

    As for The Celtic gig all those years ago, a was so close to going!!!!!!
    Yer know when yer look how long it would take ter go, the dates, the ticket info!!!!!!
    A so muc wanted ter go, but the only thing that stopped me was 'cos a 'ad been working a 70 'our week as a trucker & a just couldn't face driving 3 'ours plus on me day off... and the drive back!!!!!!
    If it'd been closer, say at The Belfry in the midlands then a would ave been there & witnessed you meeting Tash!!!!!!!
    Aswell as all the top celebs!!!!!!!

    Boggles the mind CLP.... boggles the mind 'ow fate guides us ter things 'appening!!!!!!

    Talking of which.... A will bang me Part 5 of me story on asap!!!!!!!!

  • Comment number 11.

    Part 5:

    The last day of my stay in Kherson arrived, I was just killing time now & waiting to go home.
    Lena had said she could not see me as she needed to help her mother with things at home & visit the hospital where her gravely ill father was still in a coma.
    I understood her problems but at the same time I felt confused about our friendship.
    Will she want to keep in touch when I come home to England? 鈥 It's easier to drift apart once I come home but we did agree to keep in touch & get Skype to speak to each other.
    I thought if she thought a lot of me she would at least come to say goodbye at the railway station.
    But then if she has so many family problems maybe it's simply too difficult.
    The one thing she did tell me the day before was that I should not waste my time waiting for her as she's not sure if she can ever come to England. She told me I should meet other women through the agency before I go home.
    But I just didn't feel right to do this. It's crazy I thought to have a rushed last meeting with other ladies & I only wanted Lena. It felt wrong to meet anyone else.

    I packed my suitcase as I had to check out of my apartment by noon.
    After getting everything together I headed off to the agency to leave my bags there until it was time to leave on the night train to Kiev.
    Twenty past nine the train departed so still another 9 hours of time to kill.
    While in the agency I started to browse the profiles of the ladies at the agency.
    I started to think maybe I should meet someone. I've always been a fool when it comes to women.
    I've always been a one women man, loyal to them & then end up getting dumped or find they are seeing other men behind my back.
    I saw a lady that i'd often thought of writing to & a few days earlier when I was at the agency she popped in to say hello to the translators 鈥 she looked very nice.
    What harm can it do I thought to meet her & it will kill time.
    So I asked the translators could they arrange a meeting.
    They phoned her & luckily she could meet at six after work.

    I decided to go for a walk, before coming back later for my meeting.
    I sat in the garden by the statue where I had taken the interesting photograph the day before.
    Again it was a beautiful sunny day with glorious clear skies & warm sun beating down.
    I decided to sit in the sun & catch probably the last bit of sun of the year I thought.
    I knew when I got back to England it would be cooler being the end of September.

    I headed back to the agency at ten to six & waited for the lady to arrive.
    6pm in she walked.
    Irina is her name, again tall, slim, blue eyes & very long blonde hair- she was very pretty.
    I greeted her with a smile & off we with the translator for our meeting.
    The meeting went well 鈥 she seemed very nice & although we had a translator she did speak very good bits of English. She told me she is learning English- always a good sign.
    We chatted for an hour & a half- then suddenly my phone rang..... it was Lena!
    If felt embaressed, guilty... like I was cheating on Lena.
    I didn't know what to do! Do I answer or carry on chatting to Irina.. The translator told me 鈥渁nswer it.. go on!!!鈥
    I think she sensed it was Lena as she knew of the intense week we had been through.
    I apologised to Irina but felt so rude... I got up & walked away to answer my phone!
    It was almost like Lena sensed I was with someone else- having a good meeting!
    Lena sounded quiet, upset!
    Are you ok I asked.
    She said yes but was very quiet.
    During the short phone call- we again agreed to stay in touch as soon as I got home.
    I could feel myself welling up again & Lena sounded emotional.
    I said goodbye & went back to my meeting with Irina!

    I started talking to Irina but my mind was racing. I almost couldn't concentrate on what Irina was saying as I sensed Lena wanted to meet me before I go.
    I spent another 15 minutes chatting to Irina & then she said she has to go- not miss her bus home.
    I thanked her for meeting me & we agreed to write to each other through the agency.

    I headed for the pizza restaurant again to fill up with a large meal. I need it, I thought, ready for my long journey home.
    I sat down & began to eat my meal.
    After a few minutes I got the urge to check my phone- I had a missed call come up... I realised i'd put my phone onto silent mode after speaking to Lena during my meeting with Irina & had forgot to take it off silent again.
    Lena had phoned me only a minute before- I must have sensed she had phoned me.
    I didn't finish my meal & rushed out of the restaurant to phone her.
    I felt happy, excited she had called me again- I sensed in the earlier call that she wanted to say more to me.
    When I rang she sounded a bit shy, like she was trying to say something more.
    I took the lead & said it's a shame you can't come & say bye to me at the railway station.
    She replied that she will come then but she will have to put her make up on & do her hair.
    I said you don't need to, you always look very beautiful with or without make up.
    We agreed to meet at 8pm at the station.

    I rushed back to the agency to arrange for a taxi to the station & to collect my bags.

    When I arrived at the station it was it's usual hectic busy part of the city.
    There's a one way road around a square in which there's a garden & area where they have small market stalls in the daytime. And around the road are bus stops & lots of small buses.
    The railway station dominates & is a large white grand looking building. It reminds me of an Indian building i've seen in films.
    I waited for Lena under the main clock on the building.
    It was just dark now & the most beautiful large red full moon. In fact I later found out it was the very rare harvest moon.
    My phone rang- it was Lena.
    鈥淲here are you?鈥 she asked... 鈥淯nder the large clock!鈥... she spotted me... 鈥淚 see you she said.鈥
    She looked amazing, in a nice dress with tied scarf & long white coat. Her hair was in tied back & pleated, something I liked a lot about her & she was smiling.. her blue eyes lit up.
    We embraced & headed off to the platform.
    My train was waiting. I could tell which was mine as it was the longest train in the station- about 18 carriages long.
    We cross the track to & stood by the train waiting to board.
    I talked to Lena about how it had been great to meet her & how much i'd enjoyed my time with her.
    While we were chatting away, suddenly three black military trucks pulled up on the main platform.
    They looked old like the kind of thing you'd see in a museum but in Ukraine you get used to seeing old trucks everywhere. It's part of the charm of Ukraine.
    Out got around 20 solders all in black with berries & some armed with machine guns.
    Two soldiers had a dog each, one a rotweiller & one an labrador.
    They surrounded the three trucks & stood their guarding the vehicles while the labrador seemed to be being used as a sniffer dog.
    I asked Lena 鈥渨ho are they?鈥
    There's many different types of police, home guard and special army type police in Ukraine. You get used to seeing them walking around & they never bother you.
    It's not a communist type country at all with so many types of police.
    They simply seem to keep law & order very well from what i've seen. There's no targeting motorists or traffic wardens wheel clamping or towing away vehicles like in the UK.
    Lena said she'd never seen this type of police/ military before.
    Inside each truck was a solder 鈥 maybe they are prisoner vehicles.
    I presumed they are waiting for the arrival of a train & there must be a very dangerous criminal being handed to them, maybe a Mafia member or a lot of money.
    We carried on chatting but with 20 soldiers right next to us. The soldiers stood totally still at their set positions around the trucks.
    I wondered if it was a mistake me leaving, I knew it would be difficult to keep our friendship alive what with the problems of her family.
    I said to Lena, as I had a few days before, is she sure she doesn't want me to stay for another week or more.
    Lena said there's no point as she has got to devote all of her time to helping her mother.
    She added we should stay in touch.
    I said as soon as I get home I will get Skype set up on my computer.
    We hugged and kissed & I climbed aboard my train.

    As I settle down into my first class compartment I felt a sense of relief that she came to say bye to me.
    But at the same time I knew she has a very difficult time ahead & her father is still gravely ill.
    Would it be the last time I will ever see her I wondered.
    My heart felt torn but I tried my best to keep my emotions together!
    I had a 13 hour train journey ahead through the night to Kiev... The train slowly left the station and I thought about Lena... Will we see each other ever again? Will she one day be able to leave behind her difficult life & come to England? Something told me it's a mistake for me to leave?
    But then something told me any chance of us having a relationship is doomed as her life, and her mother's life, have been turned upside by the almost certain death of her father.

    As the train rolled out of the station.... This song came into my head....



    Bye!

    Hello Christophe Lambie Pie.

    You're not wrong there Chris, it's all a matter of being in the right place at the right time.

    I love Wales, had some lovely holidays there and my dad came from Aberystwyth before moving to Birkenhead where, incidentally Paul O'Grady is from who you are chatting to tonight.

    Now off to watch Sporting Challenges while awaiting home delivery.

    I'm glad that Wales has played a big part in your life too Chris!

    I was there at The Manor when you met Tash, by coincidence it was also my birth place, and when Billie was living in Cardiff I was working just around the corner and used to pass it every day !!!!!

    Bingo you should have gone to the 'gig' it were fab x

    Happy Friday everyone!

    Today is my last day at work for a whole week - yippee! But then I wake up this morning with a blocked nose, sore throat and yes, you've got it - a cold .........the first I've had for two years.

    But why now, the week I'm on hols ...........bah!!

    Bingo - been reading all of your story, what a tale!

    To all of you - have a wonderful weekend and catch up with you all soon.

  • Comment number 15.

    Chris, I think that most of the events that change our lives for the better occur entirely by chance, especially meeting the right person. I feel like Boleynman the Second was meant for me, but if we hadn't signed up for the same teacher-training course at the same time, and been in the same "group", then we'd never have met, and we wouldn't have known any different!

    Likewise, it's impossible for me to imagine having different children to the ones I have, and loving them the same, but if Boleynman the First and I hadn't "made" them when we did, then they wouldn't be them, they'd be somebody else and I'd never have met my actual daughters because they'd never have existed!

    Pure, random chance. Fluke coincidences which change whole futures.

    No idea what "recording a hologram" means though!

    Hiya:

    Chris: you must be all interviewed-out by now, but I am so looking forward to seeing you on Paul O'Grady tonight! As for how life works out ... it's the same for all of us, isn't it? If it's written in the stars, it's written in the stars!

    I have been having terrible trouble getting on the blog today - I hope this is not a sign that I won't be able to get on tonight!

    Brekkie Production Team: I cannot wait to see the video - will check it out when I get home! Bless you all - you are brilliant!

    MC: the FNWC should last quite a wee while - hope to see you there!

    Bingo: I'm still following your story xx

    CG: have a lovely holiday - I hope your cold doesn't take hold!

    Hope Friday afternoon is treating you all well. I am almost in the "starting blocks" - can't wait for 5.30!

    JG, I can't complain, it's my choice to have the horses, I have had them at home since the late 80's it is really is just a way of life now, they are out all the time in the summer, but in the winter they are in at night, that's when the work really starts, but it really is a labour of love.

    Oz Girl - defo sat down with said foot "elevated"! ta da!

    and yes CSN - get old man on the cooking

    BTW anyone else want one of the 拢10000s of cooking baths and vacuum things that James M had on the one show tonight - how easy would real life be with one of them hey?

    and yes Rips why does the CMM only eat the pastry??? not if you came to mine she wouldnt! (ha - MTF - got there first!)

    I'm going to avoid the obvious there dozy and act like a grown up.....

    The CMM and I are complete opposites regards sauces too.

    She won't have gravy or sauce on anything through choice and if the meal dictates it, it has to go only on the meat. If it crosses over to the veg or anything else - it's all over!!!

    JG -how did I know that you'd bite? ;-)

    Dozy, at home, we had Welsh Cobs, and when I was a girl, one was a x Clydesdale called Jason... They stayed out all year, thankfully!

    Although we did go through a stage of having a herd of Angora goats...which needed regular mucking out!

    And before that Anglo-Saanan's which we kept as a milking herd! That WAS hard work!!

    Oooh Debs, I couldn't wait 4 days for me dinner!
    And vacuuming the air out of your clothes to go on holiday is one thing, but getting the vacuum cleaner in your suitcase to do the same to come back is another thing entirely!!

    JG, I had no idea, that sounds like really hard work. The funniest thing for me is when we go on nights out, it doesn't matter how late we get in, how drunk I am, or what I am wearing, as soon as we get back, I put my electric blanket on (I know, remember it is Scotland), wellies on and go out to give them hay and muck them out, that can be quite interesting at times.

    Right, I've got an idea!

    How about a bit of light hearted sabotage?

    You know that game where everyone has to say a word - one after another - whilst always maintaining some kind of narrative.

    Why don't we have a go at that?

    Wait......

    Over on Mayo's blog..

    I propose that every five minutes. One of us goes over there and types a word that follows the last one left.

    We can co-ordinate it from this blog and pray that Deebee or one of the other bi-bloggers doesn't suss it.
    We have to be as outrageous as possible..

    Whaddya reckon?

    Rips, don't think I'll join in that one, much as I'd love to, the speed of this thing is excrutiating (sp), by the time I go over there and come back, it will be tomorrow!

    Debs, one of my horses, Ash can be a real bucking bronko if the mood takes him, maybe that's what's wrong, he is punishing me for all those drunken nights, oops, just need to hold on tight because I certainly will not be sobering up anytime soon!

    Debs, if you're on a Mac. Click file and then new window and it will open a seperate window for Mayo's blog.

    It'll save opening and closing one window. I think that once you are logged in to the beeb, your are logged in across the board

    I did it, just in case anyone is wondering, on our lane to the house at this time of year there are lots of toads, I really do swerve to try and avoid them but occasionally you go over one, and squelch is the noise I would imagine one would make as it is squashed by the car tyre. Sorry.

    Anyway, I really must love you and leave you, time to muck out, but here's looking forward to doing it next weekend in person with some of you, not running you over with the car, but drinking and eating!!

    Have a great night.
