Out and about in the Olympic Park. Said hello but didn't want to bother him as he was with his family. Also my Dad said he looked someone who would headbut you if you slagged him off.  |

I hope he had his cap on.
What's the Olympic Park like ? is it worth a visit ?
I went there for the Olympics, but wouldn't mind another look around.

Ha ha no he didn't have his cap on so it took me a while to recognise him. Its nice the Park - good for kids because there's a bunch of play areas. However it is all a bit paved over for a park without much green space but the river is very attractive and wild. Worth a visit but you can wait for when Orient go to play West Ham there |

Worth a visit but you can wait for when Orient go to play West Ham there That River had been well cleaned up before the Olympic Park came about I recommend a hearty walk around the Temple Mills area it's very nice indeed the original Big Brother house was in that immediate area but I think it may of been knocked down by now |

I used to work at The Big Breakfast which would now pretty much back onto the Olympic Stadium.
I also used to do some deliveries around Carpenters Road, it's hard now to remember what the old area looked like, apart from being very run down.

Big brother is filmed in Hertfordshire. And don't mention those utter pathetic morons who play in West London they have choked more than Orient.   |

The first Big Brother was filmed in Bow, Pudding Mill studios i think.
I might have the name wrong but definitely in Bow somewhere.

But yes the Big Breakfast house is still there, they are old lock keepers cottages.
Not sure if they are lived in.

Kind of right Harlow was called Pudding Mill Lane Kbola The first Big Brother House was indeed situated in this area on an Island with a makeshift footbridge Newham Council ordered the House to be destroyed after series 3 so the area could be returned to a natural habitat I believe the series has since continued at Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire Your correct about the Big Breakfast though it was indeed filmed where you said Don't have the blues for to long though hee hee |

To spend all day emptying or filling 40ft trailers I used to hate the dark nights as there wasn't a bus stop in sight those days it was dimly lit and quite a sketchy area But hey I survived hee hee |

I have done sh#t jobs like climbing under trucks in a ships hold and scrubbing out oil tanks. If I was hardcore I would have told Slade he is a lucky basta#d to manage a football team and be paid a lot of money to do it but as I said he was with his wife and kids.  |
