Whats your claim to fame?? ever brushed shoulders with the stars??? i had coffee with rio ferdernand (spelling???) once, also went clubbing with some of the Bradford Bulls and Leeds Rhinos (rugby) Whats your claim to fame????????

I had my NRA presented bt Rupert Moon, a welsh Rugby Player. I meet Diane Louise Jordan in Cardiff (from Blue Peter and Songs of Praise) Tanny Gray Tompson came to my school to speack in asembally. I once hand delivered a letter to the house of Hawk from Gladiators (ITV game show for anyone who's forgotten)

Served Manchester United FC when they booked into our hotel ... back in 1978 ?? Had to show some of them to their rooms, served them breakfast in the morning and then served dinner for them before they went on there way ! Didn't have the foggiest idea who they were then !!!!!!!! just another footy team to me ! Elaine ;-)

Used to go to the same parties as David Bowie when he was David Jones. Thanks for PM - get back to you later, my Good Fairy :-)

I was very young .................... Vaulted onto the stage at the Cov theatre and grabbed John and Ringo before the bouncers threw me off. Similarly with Scott Walker a couple of years later.................. OH is always a little worred when we get seats near the front at concerts. Gwynne

I sat next to Glen Hoddle and his children in the cinema, we were watching Pocahontas. Tammy :~)

Sat in a bar with Robbie Williams close by in 2001 and he smiled at me on way out!! Same year different bar.... Vinnie Jones was 2 tables away! And 3 years previous was clubbing with him in Watford, as he was an after dinner speaker at a football presentation I went to!! Chelsea FC used to drink in the same members bar as me!! Strange how all bar related!! :O)

Haven't got any really. Still remember walking past an actor from Brookside when I was about 6 (that Louis Emmerick) and later at about 15 he asked us where the queue started for Monsters Inc. Wonder if he recognised me :-)

Met the guy who played Fisher in Home and Away when I was in London a few years ago. He was somewhat pickled! Anne.

I kneed Simon Butt (Nicky Butt, ex MUFC player's brother) in the chin. He stuck his head up my skirt!

I worked with the lady that had the dubious honour of ejecting Vinnie Jones from the youth club! LOL Chatted to Long John Baldry in the days when they could watch from the sidelines when the supporting acts were on without getting accosted. I too have grabbed Scott Walker! I think he set himself up for it myself. He must have done if both me and Gwynne did it LOL He had hairy legs and didn't polish his shoes but he had the loveliest mouth! Spoken to Geoff Capes at an athletic meet. My daughter was running, his daughter was putting the shot. Not very friendly at all. Stood there all 'look at me' but if you acknowleged him he got grumpy! Met Paddy Hopkirk many many moons ago when I was secretary of a motoring club (I can't drive! lol) and he came to a do. Lovely man. In the same vein, I have counted Prince Michael of Kent out from a checkpoint for a timed stage of a rally and bashed 5-4-3-2-1 on the top of the Army Team Mini he was in - and stepped back very quick! Spoke to Phil from Time Team when they were in York. We were waiting to cross the road and he was hanging out of the window of his van. I didn't really expect more than a nod when I said that they had had good weather for the dig but he chatted ages! Ooohhh quite a few! My life's not been as boring as I thought it had LOL Mags xxx

Was on the Time Team in 1998 and got chatted up by Tony Robinson. Lovely man. Was in the van that rescued Showaddywaddy from the M1 in 1972 when their van broke down. Was at university with Phil May (Llanelli and Wales) Other than that - nothing cos I never recognise anyone! Was talking to a dog in the pub a few months ago (as you do). Noce dog - never noticed his 'Mum' was Pauline Black from Selector.

Oh - and Russell Grant waved to me in the car park of the Pont Abraham service station LOL AND I did arts and crafts as a 'mummy helper' with Faye Tozer from Steps when she was at the same lower school as my children. Gosh - I'm impressed with myself LOL

Sat on the next table to Patsy Palmer (Bianca) and her family in an Indian Resturant on the MIle End Road a while back.

I have had my photograph taken by David Bailey (for those of you old enough to remember him)! And I live three doors along from the notorious (now late) Melita Norwood - AKA The Granny Spy. Dee x

know a few famous people. A dear friend is the niece of Martin Short. He was the MC at her wedding a few years ago, which turned to be a hodge podge of celebs even though it was here in lowly Hamilton Ontario. Guests were : Martin Short, Eugene Levy, Dan Ackroyde, Tom Hanks, several hockey stars and several others I forget now. It was great pulling into the parking lot of the country club and parking between limos, mercedes, caddies, lincolns, chauffer driven cars. Parked my little beater cavalier between a couple of rolls and walked with pride to the reception. pmsl

Just remembered a boxing dinner that i went to.... Alan Minter was there and he is/was oh so arrogant!! xx

My sister works in the hotel that steve Mcfadden(phil mitchell) stayed in last night.she said hes a really nice bloke. BB xx

ooooooooh Mags, I've met Phil as well. He's lovely, isn't he? Ever so friendly and chatty. And I've met David Owen - but only the politician not the Divine GR one Gwynne

My OH cut up Eric Clapton once driving (or dodging) round Hammersmith Broadway. He also brought sarnies withe Jimmy Sommerville and rubbed shoulders with Mark Lamarr in Soho (hmmmm). I waved at Betty and she waved back when I was in Paris once (Betty - QE II) Kaz :o)))
