Kate Moss meets possibly the future prime minister and mistakes him for a plumber
David Cameron,* the Conservative leader, has told how he was recently mistaken for a plumber by the model Kate Moss.
The pair were introduced by Sir Philip Green, the billionaire businessman who owns Topshop, at a charity dinner. A star-struck Mr Cameron had no idea what he should talk about, so instigated a conversation about flood damage.
The model was so impressed with his knowledge that she asked him for his phone number so that she could ask his advice on drainage.
. . .
"I went to a charitable dinner the other night and Philip Green came up to me and said, 'Would you like to meet Kate Moss?' So I said, 'Well, of course I'd like to meet Kate Moss.' I went over to her table and, on the way over, I thought, what on earth am I going to say?
"And I remembered she actually has a house in my constituency - and we'd had these terrible floods in west Oxfordshire.
"So I said: 'Very nice to meet you, very sorry about the flooding in your house. I know your local pub has been flooded, I've been to see the publican and I know you like to go to the pub and so I know it's going to re-open in six months.'
"So I went on like this and she turned around and said: 'God, you sound like a really useful guy, can I have your phone number?'
"I went back to my table and said: 'The good news is, I met Kate Moss and she wanted my telephone number. The bad news is, I think she thinks I'm something to do with drainage'."

What a nice story. I guess this is a blond bimbo tale. This just shows how self-centered you can be.
hahahaa, i could insert some snarky comment about models/blonds/etc... but i know i have a more embarassing foot-in-mouth story or two... not to mention the fact, i'm not a model (duh) nor am i blonde, nor have i taken any drugs/or alcohol recently. rendering me completely excuseless.
