My steamy afternoon with Hugh Jackman

Ok.. right from the top I have to post a disclaimer. All of the above is technically true... it's just that it was a typical Sydney summer day of unrelenting humidity and though Mr. Jackman was there, we weren't together in any real sense of the word. *Sigh*.
To be totally accurate, I admit reluctantly, that I had taken my 6yr old grandson out to the park for the afternoon and we were waiting in the bungy jumping queue. This was, I think I need to add, a very small and safe bungy jumping apparatus and entirely suitable for a 6yr old.
Anyway, I noticed this incredibly attractive man standing about 3 people ahead of us. One of those people that emanate style and grooming and drop-dead gorgeousness. Of course I stared, along with everyone else in the queue. Finally, I realised it was Hugh Jackman, waiting patiently along with everyone else, for his son to have a turn.
Despite a very strong urge to crash tackle him and assert my place as his "number one fan", I feebly tried not to gawk, but truly, he was so handsome and totally gorgeous... anyway.. he was cool too. He didn't pull rank but waited, in the sun, with the rest of us, though the people in charge of the ride cravenly attempted to give him priority, which he refused. *swoon*
Afterwards, I was putting my grandson's shoes back on when I realised the woman I was sitting next to, was Deborah-Lee Furness, MRS Hugh Jackman, so if I have to be completely truthful, I should change the title of this post to My steamy afternoon with Mr and Mrs Hugh Jackman. But I don't think I will.
