About 15 years ago we took my Dad for a Chinese in his favourite restaurant at the Pierhead, on the next table was Gerry Marsden with a few friends, I clocked him but said nothing because he was having a meal, later on in the toilet we ended up talking, he said hello and asked was it a special meal and I said yes it was my Dads 80th later on as we brought the cake out and started singing Happy Birthday, gerry joined in and came over and spoke to my Dad and generally proved to be a really nice fella. Just an ordinary little interaction but it left a nice memory. RIP Gerry
