Plenty for me

Went to school with Sean Pertwee



which meant as I was his mate I went round the gaff of his dad



Went to school with the son of Norman Tebbit



and got lifts to cricket matches off his driver!

At University, we played Durham Univ. I knocked this guy down in a nightclub in an argument over a brunette. He became England Rugby Captain

Best guests

Dennis Taylor, who fretted about us paying for a taxi from his home in Blackburn to Manchester



Kitty Lea, who won a Tighty SNG. It was worth a shot

I used to deliver Ellery Hanley's newspaper.

[sweet potata!]

Somegood stories in there.

The best I have is letting Gary Kelly play through me and my mates on a golf course, he teed up with a driver and hit the ball about 20 yards it never left the ground, he didnt mind just reloaded and hit his next one a tiny bit better.

Also was having a few quiet ones in my local when in popped Terry Jenkins and Andy Hamilton, I could have swore Hamilton looked at me funny, he was really lucky I didnt go over and rough him up, But i did have a little chat with jenks as he was leaving. Nice blokes.

i was once one of 2 people in a late night bar, I look across and the other bloke is Lee Sharpe (my boyhood hero)

Had a nice pint & chat before it was rudely interrupted by my gf

A few years ago I was staying at the Marriott Hotel in Sheffield when Ray Wilkins offered to by me a drink at the bar. Don't know how but I ended up paying for his.
He was there with the Millwall team.
Later on he was drinking red wine by the bucket full roaming around from table to table, basically if there was a woman sat at the table he'd be there.
By about 11pm he was absolutely wasted and slumped over an easy chair asleep in a drunken stupor. Gary McAllister came over to me and asked me to help him to his room stating he always did this. lol

Working as a volunteer in the backstage area at Glasto in 2009 my daughter was chatted up by the lead singer of The Hoosiers - given that she was wearing an Orange hi-viz vest, wellies and rubber gloves it was a bit weird to say the least.

Oh and for those of you with young children, I worked the front of stage pit at a festival last year for Justin Fletcher...


and finally on the festival front - I've met the man behind the wig and glasses... Mundo Jazz, and if you only click one link today - click this one :-)

david3103 wins the prize for obscurity. I have no idea who any of those 3 people are

[millidonk]

Superb!! i was wandering how long it would be til we had the first 'my daughter was chatted up by' story. WP!

Did old Irwin Sparkes get anywhere?

[Swordpoker]

I was Lorraine Kelly's chauffeur once for a GMTV 'fun in the sun' report. We were in Inverness.
I was Nickelback's masseur when they did a gig in Glasgow Barrowlands.
I played snooker with Davie Cooper and Bobby Russell (Glasgow Rangers).

[sweet potata!]

Good thread Milligan, wp.

My fav story so far has to be Dave getting abused by Ronnie for no apparent reason!!

Obviously not after absolute crackers. Just shabby B/Z list stories for people to read.

However - to explain -
The Hoosiers are were a popular beat combo who enjoyed some small success in the hit parade in their day
Justin Fletcher is currently the UK's most popular Children's Entertainer
and Mundo Jazz is ...http://www.mundojazz.co.uk/Mundo_Jazz/Home.html

ooooooooooooh just remembered a good one!

I did some survey work for Koo Stark (photographer and ex prince andrew gf).

She had a lovely mews house in Chelsea. She offered, nay insisted, to drive me back to the station as I had stayed late to get my survey done. On the way back, she said I must come to her new display at a London Gallery, and I told her (sheepishly), that I didnt understand art very well and had never really appreciated it! he said no worries she would personally show me round and explain anything I wanted to know.

(rather sadly she was taken ill in the following weeks so I never did get to take up my appointment)
