 Wow there's some amazing stuff in your comment there. I would have turned to jelly if I saw her walking down the street! Thanks for posting the pic, Buddy...and the recollections. Cheers-

 yes an amazing talent, but a very regular person too, sadly a life cut short Frown

I used to see her walking about in my local area (Kentish Town / Camden, NW London); she pulled some pints for my buddy and I in 'The Hawley Arms pub' by Camden market, and my girlfriend stopped to have a chat with her and take the obligatory selfie. Very honest and refreshing "celebrity".

Convenience store owner across the street has some fond memories of her coming into the store barefoot at 1am for 'refreshments'. At her old place in Prowse Place (less than 1/2 mile from where I live) I vividly remember after walking past her place coming back from the local supermarket, and seeing about 20 paps outside - cars, motorbikes, cameras, laptops.

I looked up (it was a 2 storey flat) and saw her staring out of the window at the mob outside, she looked spooked and for good reason. As that flat opened onto the street, there was no privacy at that location, an eye-opener to the downside of celebrity,
