I've known Philip since about 1995 - or perhaps 1996. Not sure.
We met on Hampstead Heath - as all good homosexuals do - where he was doing weather-y things in his observatory and I was waiting for him in the pub. So not quite as sordid as it originally sounds. He did "take me out into the car park" though. Which is quite sordid.
Evil sense of humour and a wicked laugh.
Most likely to say: Something about fluffy clouds and annual average rainfall in the South of France.
