I met McFly once at Sea World in Florida.

Best day of my life.

I held hands with Michal Caine in Harrods once. Thought he was my dad.

My dad invented the chair.

He should have put a ring on it.

Hmm. The Belling cooking chair.

Sold Alistair Darling a hoover.

Did he try to put it on store credit?

If he liked it then he should have put a ring on it.

My Great-Uncle is Godfather to one of Paul McCartney's kids. He worked as an engineer on most Beatles recordings at Abbey Road and still works on McCartney's solo stuff. He is good friends with him and Ringo (and previously George Harrison too- I was taught to play drums (badly) by his son who was in turn taught by George Harrison)

I've had my picture on front pages of local newspapers in the UK and USA.

My dad was a local politician for many years and was mayor of our town twice, but his greatest accomplishment was being told to jump in the ocean in The Sun's "The Sun Says" editorial column sometime in 1982. He has it framed at home.

I edited a popular fanzine for a (then) league football club and donated a substantial amount of money to said team to help prevent them from going out of business. I've been threatened with expulsion from many football grounds for flogging my illicit wares, the crowning glory being the Millennium Stadium.

Have met and DJ-ed for any number of middling indie bands, none of any note.

Geoff Emerick?!? :O
totally in awe

I was interviewed by Yvette Fielding on Blue Peter circa 1992. We were discussing my pet wallaby. They made me ride in to the studio on a bike (Raleigh Marauder) with the wallaby (named Joey obviously) in a basket on the front. I had to pretend I regularly did this, which was a lie. I still have the badge.

I was on Blue Peter and Magpie in 1978... Crackerjack in 1976...

My boyfriend is mates with Rupert Everrett, we went for dinner, nice bloke.

Apparently in his next film he plays the inventor of the vibrator (no joke!)

I had a piss with John Major

Not quite Margaret Thatcher's Penis...

I remember he has very big hands....

My dad booked the Beatles to play the Higher Bebington Hop before they were famous. As they often were back then they were a support act to Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, who's drummer was one Ringo Starr.

I helped Feargal Sharkey get some old shit copied when I worked at the national archives record copying dept.

^ Two-ton Ted from Teddington^

Just who's breasts are those? They're not Keira Knightly's.
She was rude and offhand to me when I delivered a parcel to her once.

She was the same in Chemistry

^ Two-ton Ted Tom from Teddington^

We've all had those sort of nights though, will...

Nick Ross, now there's a man who knows how to accept a delivery with grace and charm.

neu we've had this conversation before :)

She'd certainly get something.

When I worked in a skate shop I built a skateboard for Chesney Hawkes. John Virgo also came in once, but I didn't want to serve him.

My dad arrested John Virgo for drunk and disorderly.

Did you work in exit in Leeds? Because I got a signed photo of him in there, can't quite remember if he was buying a deck or not..

I was sick on the back of one of the klaxons, Oh and my uncle was in the Zombies.
