just so unfair - I work in Kings Cross in London and pass through St. Pancras International Station everyday (where the Eurostar is).
My mate who works for Eurostar promised to text me if ever Shirley travelled with them; he meets people all the time, Eddie Izzard, The Prodigy, Jarvis Cocker, The Rolling Stones to name a few.
I got a text last night saying: "Fuck I just saw Shirley. If u r near, get down here 2 check in now. She's on the 8PM train to Paris". Arses! I was halfway home! just so irrotating I missed her by a few minutes - I dunno what I would have done if I had seen her but I got so worked up and excited took me an hour to calm down afterwards.
Of course she mentioned her little trip on the Craig Ferguson show, I should have twigged she might pass through St. Pancras. My mate Matt text me back saying "the universe does like to tease" - its just stuck with me today.
I'm such a freak. She was travelling with two gentlemen, one being "Wiliam" - Billy I'm sure. Im not a stalker or anything it was just such a strange feeling knowing I'd missed her by a few minutes.

Damn! Sorry to hear. I had my eyes peeled two weeks ago when I was Edinburgh because she said on Craig she was going to be there.
Shame on our close encounters!

If it's a holiday... then it could be her dad, if its work then probably a press officer or agent.

I have been thinking about this and (paul will be able to correct me if im wrong) but G had a distribution deal with PIAS for paris and some of europe. I'm thinking since PIAS (literally) went up in smoke this year that Shirl is over there at the moment on "label business" which would make sense of Steve's tweet. I think she is travelling with Billy (obviously) who could provide the "tech information sound wankery" side of things and I think the third person is her new agent which she has breifley mentioned on craig fergusson. I think he is there to bust the balls and do the "business" side of things.
