Nick Clegg and Colin Firth
I don’t have the Colin Firth picture so you’ll have to make do with Gregg instead, but we were all over the papers yesterday as Colin Firth has declared his support for the Lib Dems and came in to Wallace & Co for a coffee with Nick Clegg on Monday. This was the coverage in The Telegraph – http://tinyurl.com/3yooqao and Daily Mail – http://tiny.cc/kqudz (we love this picture). Nick lives locally and has been in a few times with his family. When Nick came in the last time (on Good Friday – pre the first election debate, when I took the picture above) he walked straight past me and Gregg without us recognising him, then came over and introduced himself charmingly and self-effacingly - ’Hello, I’m Nick Clegg (pause) – leader of the LibDems’. It’s amazing how much has changed in such a short time. Nick, we definitely know who you are now. So will we be voting for you? Actually I will, but that shouldn’t be taken as an official Wallace & Co endorsement. I’m not sure which way Gregg is leaning.
