"The minute Colin Farrell sat down, I knew I was going to like him. The best way I can put this is he looks like a star and he walks like a star, but when Colin opens his mouth to talk, the Hollywood falls off him. That suave celebrity you see in movies and on the red carpet? In reality, he is a darling."
"I'd spent weeks finding a dress - red, gorgeous. I'd spent ages getting ready, full make-up, hair. I hadn't choked much in years, but I wasn't taking the chance of spluttering all over Colin Farrell, so I rang the hotel in advance and ordered plain mashed potatoes for my meal. I wanted to play it really safe and just have things I knew would definitely not cause any problems. Everything was set."
A snowy day in Dublin in 2010 marked the first meeting with Colin Farrell and initiated a deep friendship. Colin's physical presence and walk convey star quality, but his speech removes the Hollywood veneer and reveals warmth and charm. The meeting attendee prepared meticulously, selecting a red dress and arranging hair and make-up. A prior choking issue prompted ordering plain mashed potatoes to avoid spluttering during the meal. Careful planning aimed to prevent any problems and ensured the meeting proceeded as intended.
