Quoted from Les Brechin
I met George Burley and the actor Ian Reddington (who played Tricky Dicky in Eastenders and Vernon in Corrie) when I went to a Brain Tumour UK lobby at The Houses of Parliament last year.

Also Neil Ruddock at a Sportsmans Evening last year too.


How can you not forget the guy from Harry Potter that we met.

I met Fatima Whitbread when she opened a sports shop in Bury St Edmunds,

She was not as big as I thought she was, also had a beautiful smile.

Also served a famous film star when I worked in a pub near Elstree studios,

But

I can not remember his name now, he was a baddy in Dr  No.

I was sat a few seats behind David Icke on the train back from Grimsby a few years ago, he got on at Doncaster or Sheffield for Manchester.

When I saw the Flaming Lips recently my Mrs noticed some fella and went to me, "He looks a bit homeless doesn't he." At first glance it was a rather disheveled fella wearing quite a few layers despite it being the height of summer and holding a plastic bag full of stuff, it was Badly Drawn Boy. Also saw Bonehead ex of Oasis and Cane Dingle at the same show.
