The other night I was lying in bed just about to drift off to sleep when I was alerted by a rustling sound under the covers. I glanced over at my husband Mark as the noise was coming from his direction, and although it was quite dark I could make out a tent shape in the duvet cover where he was lying. Obviously I assumed he must you know, have got his lunch box out for a midnight snack or something, maybe he had some leftovers under there, a sandwich or chicken-leg perhaps?
But it got me to thinking about all the other lunchboxes I've seen over the years. As I lay there, the sweat glistening on my skin, I recalled the olympics of 1988 when Linford Christie shone like a polished apple. Even now, I can still recall with incredible detail the entire contents of Linford's lunchbox and the shape of it down to the minutest detail including the length and girth too. It certainly was a most impressive lunch box as I think you'll agree when we take a look.
As I lay there thinking about lunchboxes I became kind of fidgety, so as I tossed and turned in my bed, I diverted myself by recalling many other fine examples of celebrity lunchboxes too. The time I was invited as a guest at Arsenal football club was very memorable. Vavavoom! The footballers wives and I all gazed jealously at Thiery Henry's lunchbox in the Arsenal changing room at half time. What happened next was amazing, he took it out in front of everyone and just started there and then. I felt really lucky when he offered me a bit too. His lunchbox turned out to be a fairly standard shape I would say, possibly a little bigger than average at a push.
One of the most surprising lunchboxes has to be Ewan McGregor's, the actor. It is actually bright pink! I mean can you imagine that? Once one gets past the colour though it turns out to be a rather impressive and sleekly designed lunchbox. It is certainly up there in the lunchbox elite and quite renowned in acting circles as he takes it out on most of his shoots. Ewan has a rather odd tendency to wrap all his bits in cling film which I find strangely charming albiet unecessary with a lunchbox like his one.
Well I hope you've enjoyed my lunch box review, next time I'll tell you all about my fascinating collection of toe nail clippings.
