  1. you're just being modest aren't you.. where was George at the time?
     
  2. was doing MOT at same time as Bruce Foxton in Guildford. His was a "sweeney" Jaguar, mine was a Lancia, really friendly bloke, talked to me before i talked to him. I knew he went to school with a couple of cousins so no big deal but made a big impression on me just because of above. Said he was touring with Stiff Little Fingers at the time.
     
  3. I'm the guy who, finding a roll of super8 film with footage of Lucy Lawless parents wedding on, copied it on to DVD for them and had it sent to them.
    Yes, it was me.
     
  4. This is bizarre.. I was just thinking of Lucy lawless as I can't remember if I shared my story re her. ..
    And not sure if I should if I haven't already ..

  5. Met sir Edmond Hillary twice .. once at school where he gave a talk to the class about how to achieve in life and being healthy.. he used me as an example of a kid that should drink more milk..
    Didn't listen to any of it which is why I'm a srawny loser...
    The other time, my dad was fixing his TV at his house while I played chess with him .
     
  6. Met Vince Cable a while back and discussed Plexiglass and Spitfires with him - he's seriously deluded regarding democracy though :bucktooth:
     
  7. that last sentence* scores maximum kudos like, forever :neutral: have you ever used it as a, you know, conversation opener? :bucktooth:


    *did I get that right, or was your Dad incredible at multitasking?

  8. I would have quite a lot to say to Vince Cable and plexiglass and I don’t think he would like it
     
  9. Paul Weller wasn’t so chatty

    He spent a lot of time snogging his bird.

    People on the row behind asked for an autograph which he refused. So I left him to it. Eventually, he spilled one of his many, many vodkas and he asked me for my napkins. I told him he had a hole in his bucket (glass) and had a laugh and went back to leaving him alone
     
  10. best not comment in full, but I came to a conclusion that fits in with your experience Derek.
     
  11. Unfortunately Catherine wasn’t in the bed at the time, fortunately Nor was George.
    It was Skibo Castle and they were the prior guests in the room.
    Well, it did say tenuous.

  18. He used to live opposite me. I never spoke to him. His ex wife was and still is nice though. Don’t get the wrong idea!
