I saw Tim Mickleburgh in the library once and also through the window of a bus which was on it's way to the pier

I once shook Tony Blair's forearm
Sir Garfield Sobers
Tracey Shaw accidentally rubbed her behind (and left it leaning) against my hand whilst I was working in a bar in Manchester. Needless to say, I remained where I was 'til she moved
Muttiah Muralitharan
Richard Smith - classy 90's centre back signed from Leicester
Willie Thorne
Chris Evans
David Mitchell
Some poker players whom I would consider famous, but lots probably wouldn't
Christopher Ecclestone
Damian Lewis
Julia Bradbury
Dawn French - two thirds as wide as she is t(sm)all

Basically said about 100words combined to all of the above so probably the only ones I should include are James Anderson, Rory Stewart and Howard Marks - all very genuine and decent guys - in exceptionally different ways...!

Friends with Jack Straw's daughter so I've met him. She is lovely and he's ok.

I work with & are a friend of Gordon Bank's Son - so I've met him. Such a lovely down to earth bloke. Went to GB's house one evening after work for a brew & ended up staying to watch a European match on tv with him.

Quoted from Polish Bloke
How could I forget? Michael Clegg of Cleggs people fame, saw him walking down Pasture Street in the early 80's, he was awesome, got talking about norris the rubberman and outdoor clothes, local issues, craske and smith, the number of train stations in Grimsby and other arcane stuff and he was a bloody natural, recognised him off the telly and he was even more avancular in real life, a lovely guy, wonder what he's doing now.


I'm afraid he'd dead mate. Passed away in 1995, I think it was the big C.

Mr McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

I once stood next to Christopher Ecclestone in the Sportspages book shop in Manchester. This was before Doctor Who and just after he'd been in Cracker. Sadly I never realised and only found out when my mate pointed it out to me as he walked away.

I was also stood behind Duncan Preston (Emmerdale, Acorn Antiques) in a queue at the booking hall at Kings Cross. I also shared lectures with Stacy Coldicott whilst we were doing our degrees.

Yeah, I just googled him and found out, shame as he was a really nice guy and a genuine character.

Met Liam Gallagher the other week. Top bloke and was genuinely interested in what i had to say.

Met a few footballers too. Met Clive mendonca who I regard as a hero and not important than just a footballer...
