The Perfect Couple

Travelling back from my Uni in Preston last night i was graced with the precense of a celebrity couple on my train. As they were celebrities they of course travelled in 1st class and I spotted them on the Euston platform with their bullet proof suitcases in hand. The famous couple; Mario and Lisa. From where? Big Brother.


Perhaps the term 'celebrity couple' is not just when referring to Big Brother stars and it was certainly clear that they weren't as of high celebrity status. After I noticed them on the platform but it appeared to me i was the only one, oh except from the virgin train staff, an indication if ever there was one that they've hit the big time! All three of the train staff gathered on the platform waving franticaly at them requesting for 'one last photo' . This did turn heads amongst the travellers however even after the fans had drawn the attention of this years reality star couple the train users were still none the wiser to who the couple were.


PRADA


As they strolled through the station heading, like me, for the Victoria line it did seem some what weird that the Macho Mario was pushing his four wheeled suitcase while Lisa was carrying hers. Still going unnoticed they continued onto the Tube where I carried on my inspection. I felt ashamed that i was so intrigued into this couple however I could not take my eyes off them. Limited seats were on offer on the tube as they always are but gentlemanly Mario offered Lisa the seat and stood guard over her with the suitcases poised between his legs.


I turned my attention to Mario with his Prada sunglasses which had been left on from the train station into the Underground clearly the sun was still too bright for him at 9 o'clock on a September evening deep underground. But he wouldnt be a celebrity if he wasnt trying to hide his identity would he. Well i'd say he was doing a great job as he was still going unnoticed amongst 'the general public'. The clothes, the suitcases and the tan were a clear indication to me that they had been away for the weekend. The train destinations were glamorous Crewe, Manchester and Milton Keynes. Some celebrity lifestyle.
