My mate was on Good Morning with Anne and Nick as a toddler because his family had bought and old double decker bus and driven on a tour around the country!
[cite]Posted By: 1905[/cite]I work on Kingsway, quite near Covent Garden, so I seem to see quite a lot of celebrity's knocking around. If it's on my lunchbreak I usually follow them round for a bit, not sure why, possibly in the hope that they'll do something scandalous which I can photograph and flog to the News of the World. I once followed Rowan Atkinson for about 15 minutes, during which time he gave serious consideration to buying a shirt in TM Lewin but ultimately decided against it.
I was employed as an extra for Casino Royal. During the whole days filming I never got within 200 yards of a camera and then the scene was cut from the final film anyway.
Nearly ran Steve Backley over in Bexley once when he stepped out from between two parked cars. I'd liked to have seen him try and throw the Javelin afterwards if I'd not swerved out of the way.
My Doctor in Barth Road Plumstead when I was growing up was Dr. Bush - Kate Bush's dad.
I used to play in the same snooker team as a bloke who was world arm-wrestling champion and appeared for about two seconds in the great Sly Stallone film 'Over the Top'.
The lead guitarist in my brother's punk band in the 70s lived opposite Siouxsie Sioux.
I manage a sheltered housing scheme for the elderly. One of my residents is a gentleman named Sandy Anderson who played for Southend in the fifties and to this day, still holds their most league appearances record, 450'ish games.
I worked in an Office Licence by the Welcome Inn on Well Hall Rd whilst at University, a regular customer was Victor White - Alan White's (ex Oasis drummer) dad.
I once sold Curbs a crate of Peroni whilst working in the very same off licence.
My old Venture Scouts leader was tour manager for Dr & The Medics and we often stayed on the lead singers (Clive) farm in the Brecon Beacons.
I went to Woolwich Poly. Whilst taking a dump one cold winters day, Paul Walsh came into the trap next door and proceeded to bogwash a fellow first year student
Young Mr Walsh, who was in my year, was rather good at that! he also held the record for holding your breath in the team bath. I spent a day looking after John Boy from the Waltons, man has the patience of a saint, every other twat thought it would be funny to shout goodnight John Boy at him, and every time he would wave and smile, never once complained, unilke a certain Miss McCutcheon...
I went to school with a guy whose needed extra help wfor his maths O-level and his tutor lived 3 doors down from the flat in Deptford where Dire Straits rehearsed before hitting the big time.
My Auntie used to date Boy George's Brother.
Played against Scott Wagstaff twice for my school team (remember him being a bit gobby). Absolutely clattered him in one of the games.
Whilst having a kick about in Greenwich Park with a few of my mates I rifled off a peach of a shot that smacked a by-passing John Fashanu square in the face, knocking him to the floor - much to the ammusement of my best mate, who idolised him whilst in primary school. Mr. Fashanu was not impressed.
When I was on holiday, around 12 years ago, possibly Portugal, we saw Gazza on a night out getting drunk with some of his mates.
Gwyneth Strong (Cassandra on Only Fools & Horses) came into my parents members club a while ago. Was going come back to get a membership, but never did.
Louise Redknapp sat on my dads knee when she was a baby, of course because of that she'd wouldn't remember or know who he is.
I found out via Facebook that my cousins daughter knows Harry Pell.

Mate of mine went out with Louise when she was still called Nurding. They were at Christchurch School on Shooters Hill.
I'm sure Charlton Charlie had some "involvement" with Gail Porter.
Years ago when i was at school, i 'got off' with a girl that was in a year above me... now that was cool back in the day, but my claim to fame is a few years later, i was watching Bruce Forsyth's play your cards right and she was one of his 'DOLLYS' i was well proud of that!
"hello girls your so appealing, come on dollys do your dealing" or something like that!?
I went to the same school as Jagger and Richards (wentworth,Dartford) I went to the same school as Alan Knott (erith) I headbutted Lemmy from Motorhead I pushed open a door at the Thomas a Beckett and smashed it in the face of Nigel Benn. Doh!! My old band played every Friday or Sat at the Albert in Deptford and Glenn Tilbrook coudnt get in cos it was full, found him pissed as in the street after. My dad was a music critic and took me along when he interviewed Clapton, I was introduced to him and just said 'Alright mate', I was 15. My dad booked a transatlantic interview call with Kenny Rogers, the phone rang, I answered, 'Hi can I speak to **** *****'? 'Whos's calling' I said, 'Kenny Rogers' says Kenny, 'Is it F*ck'! says I and hung up. My mate Ted shagged Siouxsie Sioux (alledgedly) I held Jim Davidsons mates drinks when he popped a Stoke fans face inside out at the Stones club. ER...thats about it for now, do I win ?
Oh Yer one more,Played against Paul Walsh in the LYFA cup many years ago, marked him out the game (kicked him a lot), got man of the match, two seasons later he presented our end of season trophies, he didnt remember me, must be the Alzheimers!!
My mum worked with Shane Richie as a bluecoat on the Isle of Wight One of my best mates bumped into Martin Ofio (Rugby player, not sure of spelling) and reckons it was this that caused his knees to begin to crumble I went to the same school as Kieran Richardson and Jem Karacan (Reading CM)

He was part of the crowd that chased the bus...

Kemal Izzet (I think he was at Colchester, Muzzy's brother) and Kevin Nicholls (formerly of Charlton Athletic fame) also attended.

Did he swing his pants?
