Described by the Evening Standard as “London’s best connected man”, this Chelsea based sage is the founder of Urbanologie, an online private members’ lifestyle club. Ampleforth educated and someone who “can always recall faces and names”, Hugo Campbell-Davys is the first in the know about global hotspots. If you are launching a bar, club or restaurant you’d better get on his radar.
Hugo probably has a vast network of contacts in Addis Ababa, it was always my dream destination. Sadly since the Italians were last there in 1936, it has rapidly gone to the dogs. It was my dream to ride a camel on rough and dangerous road, smoking a Lucky Srike fag, making me feel as cool as Humpfrey Bogard in Cassablanca Hugo is living the dream, I wish I could.
He must be Veblen savvy; therefore l want him on MY Radar………….
Does this man make any effort to support the Find Madeleine campaign? I do hope so given his connections. He could be a route to a solution for dear Kate and Gerry McCann in their search for their beloved daughter Madeleine. Celebrity backers include Sir Richard Branson, Lady Meyer, J. K. Rowling, Gordon and Sarah Brown, etc etc etc so it would be good for him too.
