"I once sat in a chair that Arnie looked at..." Tenuous Claims to Fame
-
I once saw Brett Anderson (of Suede Fame) leave a Radiohead concert.
Now you: -
I saw the Fonz outside Waitrose
-
I saw Phil Neville at Mothercare. -
Ian Botham once told me to fuck off and refused to sign my programme after a charity cricket match.
-
I saw Lisa Riley in Marks and Spencer. She looked like a balloon.
Also, I live a minute walk away from where John Spencer used to practice snooker before coming World Champ in the 70s.
And (AND) I've seen Danny Boyle in Radcliffe a number of times on his frequent visits back. Once in ASDA! haha. -
-
I was pissing about behind the camera whilst he was being interviewed. Needless to say Beefy went mental. I was about 10.
I got Brian Lara's autograph though. -
I fitted Jo Whiley's kid's shoes. Fucking low point right there
-
I'm right now about 10 metres from where that Canadian guy who chops people up got caught!
On Saturday i kissed a girl who slept with Sebastien Schweinwotever, the German footballer!
It's been an exciting week. -
Zak Dingle came to my cousin's wedding. He sulked because nobody bothered talking to him apart from two old biddy mums (to be fair he smelt, and looked like an absolute fucking tramp).
-
Served Colin Jackson and the cuddly old guy from Antiques Roadshow when I worked in a pub in Malvern. Different occasions mind....would have been strange pair to see together.
Jackson looked fit as fuck ('89-'90) and had an OJ
Jolly old Harry Sandon was jolly and had a whiskey
Been for a few pints in company with Dermot Murnaghan (he's a cousin of a chum of mine). Decent guy - pretty down to earth.
Went out with a cousin of Liam Neeson for while. Never met the big man though - he wasn't as famous then - early 90s,
My ex-boss is married to a cousin of Van Morrison - scraping the barrel here...Holding the wrong end of the stick since 2009. -
Wasn't this a thread like this already somewhere? I'm sure at some point recently i had an excuse to tell you about the time i injured Rik Mayall while playing football. Well now you got to hear the story twice.

Ooh, so many. I sold Graham Norton a pair of shorts, Simon Pegg a t-shirt, Mike Skinner an iPod, John Hurt an iMac, Huey Morgan a pair of headphones, Ed O'Brien an iPod case, Richard D. James a pair of jeans, saw Simon Amstell and Miquita Oliver walking down Neal Street, ditto Alan Davies, saw Goldie and Tim Westwood on Regent Street (not together), and Johnny Greenwood for that matter, met Shaun Hughes at a Godspeed! gig, have met Kate Bush a few times, lived up the road from Sophie Aldred in my youth, spotted the Queen and Prince Phillip being driven through New Cross, erm, there's probably more, but that's all I can recall right now.
What do I win? -

Ooh, I failed to fix Harry Enfield's computer.
-
Did fix DJ Talent's computer.

The Queen came to open our university library. I was in bed at the time. If she'd come some time after midday i might have stopped by to say hello

Good job she didn't. That has national scandal written all over it.
'Queen gets jiggy with white-shirted toyboy' -
My dad danced with Princess Anne.

Someone who appreciates best in class customer service you mean? -
Oh, Stephen Fry popped in to say hello to the staff on the iPad launch day.

I once saw a thread like this one.

Mentioning Goldie, I saw him at a Pizza Hut in Reading, and then a year later I saw Bjork outside a restaurant in Santa Monica. They were the only two music stars I'd seen at that point (not on a stage), both in restaurants, and...they used to go out with each other. Watarthechances.

Oh yeah, sold Adam Buxton a cable. Or something, I forget.
Howdy, Stranger!
