"The nicest ‘celebrity’ I’ve ever served was a young footballer. Strange to associate footballers..."
“
-
The nicest ‘celebrity’ I’ve ever served was a young footballer. Strange to associate footballers with manners, I know.
He walked towards me, and as somebody who’s son is a fan of the team he plays for I knew who he was as soon as he spoke to me.
At a hundred miles an hour and clearly flustered he said “I was wondering please if you could help me Miss. Do you sell - I’m sorry, I cannot pronounce it in English. Tagleeeteeelea. I’m sorry. That doesn’t sound right. I can write it for you…..oh but my spelling not so good either. Is OK. Thank you anyway.”
I quickly reassured him I knew what he wanted and I’d show him where it was.
The whole walk around to the pasta aisle he apologised for not being able to find it himself, for ‘troubling’ me and even for his pronunciation.
When we got there it was like I’d taken him to a case of buried treasure. his face lit up and he said ‘Oh this is it. Yes! Thank you so very much Miss.’
Then he pulled out a 5 pound note and said ‘for you’
I laughed and asked him what it was for and he said ‘A tip. Because you help me so much.’ When i explained that we can’t accept tips and it’s not generally customary to even be offered them, he blushed and said he was confused with tipping because it’s very different where he’s from - but to know that he was very grateful.
I finally told him I knew who he was and that my son was a fan. He was very pleased, and we talked for a few moments about his team and then we said our goodbyes.
I told my son when I got home and his face lit up, although he was annoyed at me for not getting an autograph! I didn’t even think to ask!
The next day though, I was called by name to the customer service desk - and who stood there but my mystery footballer. He must have read the name on my badge. It turned out that he’d brought my son a signed shirt and even brought an unsigned photo with him so that he could dedicate it personally to my son once he’d asked me for his name.
Truly nice person.
His name? Most of you probably won’t have heard of him. Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez.

Irmãos diabólicos
‘Rivalidade caseira’ rende brincadeira entre gêmeos do Manchester United ‘Ele teve que ouvir muitas provocações minhas’, diz lateral Fábio após marcar pela primeira vez com a camisa do clube.
O gol de Fábio, o último da goleada do Manchester United sobre o Wigan, por 4 a 0, no último sábado, e o primeiro dele com a camisa dos Diabos Vermelhos, reascendeu uma “rivalidade caseira” com o irmão Rafael. Tudo não passa de uma brincadeira entre os gêmeos, é claro, mas contar vantagem é algo que ambos fazem questão.
– Meu irmão Rafael já fez dois gols pelo Manchester e em casa sempre brincava bastante comigo em relação a isso. Sábado foi a minha vez e ele teve que ouvir muitas provocações. Nós trazemos essa rivalidade familiar desde que começamos a jogar. Mas é uma coisa sadia e bem humorada, afinal somos irmãos e um está sempre torcendo pelo outro – disse Fábio.
– Ele ainda está um gol na minha frente, mas espero igualar o quanto antes para que ele não fique mais tirando vantagem. Brincadeiras à parte, eu sei que ele mais do que ninguém ficou muito feliz com o meu gol e quando estava comemorando consegui me aproximar do banco de reservas e pude ver a felicidade no rosto dele. Somos muito unidos e vamos levar isso para sempre em nossas vidas – completou.
Exemplo para os jovens, o técnico Sir Alex Ferguson também foi muito elogiado por Fábio.
– O Alex nos trata com muita atenção desde que chegamos ao clube. Depois do jogo ele veio conversar comigo e pude ver que ele estava realmente muito feliz por me ver marcar pela primeira vez. Ele sempre confiou bastante no meu potencial e é com muita felicidade que tento corresponder isso dentro de campo com boas atuações. Ele é uma pessoa fantástica e sempre nos ajudou muito. Infelizmente não posso dedicar o gol a apenas uma pessoa, mas ele com certeza está entre elas – afirmou.

Apperantly I have a "date" for my best friend's Sweet 16.
So, Brenda...are you taking anyone?
Anyone?
Yes.
Umm --
Are you gonna take Pea with you?

It'd be funny if you take an actual Pea and set it on the chair and someone comes and sits on it and you'll be all "OH MY GOD MY PEA!!!!"

You guys probably think this won’t make their blog look pretty anymore. You’re wrong. It shows you care. Just reblog. Think about how this would make you feel if you were that little girl.
