i was supposed to be the very last person in the queue to see ASH (i didnt have a VQ ticket but i went to ask the lady at the end of his queue if any more would be issued and she said i could go in anyway ) so when i got up to the front of the queue (by this time the woman had let in a few people behind me too), i said hi, how are you etc. and then while he was signing my pic tony started talking to the crew member who was 'looking after' him and she said that was the last one cause he had to go, but he said 'what am i going to do for the next 15 minutes, sit on my spam, let them in'. what a sweetie. and the woman told him another member of the staff there had said it was time for him to go and he said 'bring them here, slap them around a bit' (but jokingly) so anyway there was much smiling and shaking of hands done (he has very short fingers ). he ended up staying for quite a while after that. very sweet guy, although the crew member next to him was kinda stressed and snapped at people when they asked for photos.
