Went on a cruise for our 10th anniversary. I ended up on stage playing Bullseye with Jim Bowen hosting. Unfortunately I was paired with a woman (not the wife) who could neither throw darts nor answer the most trivial of trivia questions.
Super, smashing, lovely, great.

I know Kinboshi. Rumour has it he won something once, but he doesn't like to mention it. Does that count?

Just remembered another one which happened to me. This is proper scraping the barrell. I was in the lounge at Heathrow waiting to fly to New York with my then girlfriend. I was sitting there sipping my cocktail whilst my missus was in the bathroom. Some geezer came and sat on one of the two seats at my table and ordered 3 slices of toast and a pint of stella, which was pretty weird. He then leans over and says " sorry if you feel uncomfortable because everyone is staring at me, its because I am a Celebrity" I actually laughed at him and said "oh, are you?  what do you do" drawing a gasped breath he said " don't you watch tv?" i said " yes, sometimes" he then asks me what i watch. i reel off soccer am, come dine with me, babestation.. the usuals. he asked me if i had ever seen big brother. i said " I watched the first season, but after that i thought it was shit" he then goes to confess he is the one and only sree from big brother 10... then continued to tell me how he had nailed loads of the chicks in the house etc etc how he is making a tonne.... Absolute prick. He even had his own name on the back of his top. Also told me he was sponsored by Corona, before asking me get my phone out and google images him. For those of you like me who had no idea:   |

I've got a photo of me & Sidney Poitier (he'd just finished filming, I was a little kid & complained that he smelled of sweat).  I sat chatting with James Garner in JFK airport. I've had a few drinks with Aztec Camera/ Big Country & Mike Peters/ Capercaillie (all at different times). I've shared a lift with Paul Robinson from Neighbours. I chatted up the short bird from Coupling, in front of her fiancée.  I've managed to insult De La Soul, (all 3 of them). |

I let Jason McAteer and John Aldridge tee off in front of us the other day so they didn't get stuck behind our society comp.

When working in the local paper shop I used to serve the lad that ran onto the pitch and was smacked by Brian Clough.

Proper B list effort - had a cup of tea made for me by this No.1 selling UK artist at the height of her "fame". In her own kitchen. For the young ones, this really was a No.1, but more of a number 2 in my book. |
