We didn't see James in Cardiff yesterday but we met Joe Calzaghe in HMV.
He was doing a signing in HMV,so i got to speak to him and shake his hand.He is gorgeous (not as gorgeous as James ;))

In 2002 me and my friend went to those 2 Manics shows in a row in Cardiff. A few hours before the show we were walking down the street to KFC, decked out in our Manics gear, tiaras, feather boas, etc. The Manics came driving along in a limo and spotted us, Nicky wound the window halfway down and waved and screamed at us as they drove past. We were flattered that they had noticed us.

Aw thats so cool! Nicky's fantastic

saw nicky and james today!

nicky about 12 noon and james just after 6.

said hello to both and got a wink off james!

no conversation this time but still exciting!

my colleague got her holy bible signed by james tho and she was lucky enough to get a hug and a 'happy christmas'!!.
inevitably she squeeeeeeeeddd alot!

nicky carrying m&s bags in a green jacket and james with his usual dark navy blue coat and rucksack-the 'just got off a train' look.
his hair's grown a bit, nice quiff going on.
nicky has re-bleached his hair also.
both looking quite thin
x

I really need to see them in cardiff.

Yeh I'd heard Nicky was looking quite thin after the America tour. Hope he's ok ..I actually like him thin. Wish I was in Cardiff so I could bump into him. I almost jumped on a train to Bridge End today but decided gettin paid was better than a Manics trip-at the moment anyway, when I finish work anythings possible!!!! No job yet so anything goes...

Agreed.

This has made me smile a lot for pretty much no reason other than he shopped at M&S.

Oh man if only it was as easy as that. i've been to cardiff HUNDREDS of times and never seen them out and about :(

Thank you for saying this as a calm, rational alternative to my mind immediately thinking about adding a Cardiff university to my grad school applications.

Jack: awesome!!! Glad to hear they were so nice!

Lucky thing Jack! :D

When was he ever not thin, apart from when he was a baby?

Jack - you should've told them to get the album out in 2010.

no, really, now I serioulsy want to move to Cardiff - 4REALLY. and I'm starting saving money from TODAY.

I'm in Cardiff often and I've only seen James once.I think that was pure luck.

Haha oh no Deets! Cardiff is a huge city and people like WelshManicFoo and I
who live near it or in it have almost NEVER seen a Manic there!
Jack only sees them because he works nearly every day in a Cardiff shop that the manics like. he is a very lucky guy.

Lucky Jack working in a music shop in Cardiff! :D
