An encounter with 'The Waliking Dead' . . . 0

[The Voord]

I was out in Liverpool (UK) this afternoon doing what I do best (drinking beer . . . it's what Saturdays are for).

I was walking along North John Street when approaching me was David Morrisey, who played the part of The Governor in the TV series.  I smiled at him briefly, in passing, and he exchanged the acknowledgement by way of a grin . . . no words were exchanged (I don't try to impose upon anyone).

My wife was trailing a few yards behind me (I'm a fast walker) and when I stopped to wait for her to catch up she exclaimed, "That guy that just passed us looks familiar?"

I replied, "That's the Governor from 'Walking Dead."

"What's he doing in Liverpool if he's an American?" she asked.

"Actually," I corrected her, "he was born in Liverpool, so must be on a return visit to his place of birth."

"Why didn't you stop him and say hello?" she asked.

"Because I'm sure the guy could do without fan hassle," I replied.

"Pity," she said, "I could have introduced the Walking Dead to the Walking Drunk!".

Slightly off topic, I know, but what the heck . . .
