I am a researcher looking for information, anecdotes and photographs about singer Lily Allen and her brother Alfie.
Do you have photographs of them at school, have you met either of them on holiday in Ibiza, or are you best mates with one of their close pals?
Contact me in total confidence - I will pay cash for valuable information.
Thanks, Harry

I did go to school with Lily actually, or Lil as we called her. Once I bumped into her at the fishmarket, I was supposed to bring home some clams for dinner because we were having pasta with clam sauce, but Lil said "oh don't buy clams here, they're a bit long in the tooth" and then she did a sort of pantomime of a man walking with a cane. I bought the clams anyway but she was right, they were rather tough. Thank you Lily Allen!

Lily don't go to no Ibiza, dude, she hangs out with all the top people when she's in Europe. This is what I heard about her and Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, Picasso and Scott Fitzgerald:
"It's not the first time that I was in Europe, I was in Europe many years ago with Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway had just written his first novel, and Gertrude Stein and I read it, and we said that is was a good novel, but not a great one, and that it needed some work, but it could be a fine book. And we laughed over it. Hemingway punched me in the mouth.
"That winter Picasso lived on the Rue d'Barque, and he had just painted a picture of a naked dental hygenist in the middle of the Gobi Desert. Gertrude Stein said it was a good picture, but not a great one, and I said it could be a fine picture. We laughed over it and Hemingway punched me in the mouth.
"Francis Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald came home from their wild New Year's Eve party. It was April. Scott had just written Great Expectations, and Gertrude Stein and I read it, and we said it was a good book, but there was no need to have written it, 'cause Charles Dickens had already written it. We laughed over it, and Hemingway punched me in the mouth.
"That winter we went to Spain to see Manolete fight, and he was... looked to be eighteen, and Gertrude Stein said no, he was nineteen, but that he only looked eighteen, and I said sometimes a boy of eighteen will look nineteen, whereas other times a nineteen year old can easily look eighteen. That's the way it is with a true Spaniard. We laughed over that and Gertrude Stein punched me in the mouth."
Oh, wait a minute... that was Woody Allen. Sorry.
