No, not really private. He asked us what we had been doing since we last met (which we hadn't) and when I regained the power of speech, I managed to say that we had been to a lot of his concerts and enjoyed them all, which he said he was very pleased to hear. My husband was far more composed than I was and asked him about how he was feeling about the concert that evening. I can't remember another thing - not even saying goodbye, because we were both so astonished at what had just happened! I do remember that a traffic jam had built up behind his limo - it was rush hour - and there was a lot of hooting of car horns!
A year later, we went to Pagham to see The Bluesclub Band and suddenly, there was Danny shaking our hands! He had also been in the car with MK. He said it was nice to see us again - I couldn't believe he had remembered us after all that time! I asked him why Mark had stopped the car to speak to us in Newcastle and he said he had recognized us. I personally think, because it was Newcastle, we were people he thought he knew from his life there, but whatever, it was very special to us and we will never forget it!
