Any famous encounters with well known celebs?

[pirate]

I bumped into Robbie Coltrane in my local Homebase a few years ago. He was waiting for a piece of wood to be cut.

He nodded and said "alright?"
Like the classy act I am, I nodded back and said "Aye!"

Just the normal banter between celebrities who don't have to be gushy...

I’ve met HM, Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair, Nelson Mandela amongst others, and a bloke called Václav Havel.

I also had to tell Barry Evans to move his arse, on the ramp of a Cruise ship. -

Oh yeah. I'd forgotten I'd met the queen. Seemed to pale into comparison against the chuckle brothers.

I’ve told the story before, Pete will know, but we visited a place where there’s a museum to eaves dropping devices. We were told that the Russian Boy Scouts presented the US Ambassador in Moscow with a plaque. Yanks discovered later it was a bugging device, but they couldn’t work out how it functioned. A Brit scientist worked it out. Met Tony at a function there,and recounted the story. That was me he said.

Nice chap, we were only there for the morning but he popped out and brought all the workers a bacon roll.

I drove jimmy Saville from the sergeants mess to the now renamed Saville rooms at CTCRM when I was in the forces.

It has since been renamed, ‘The Bootneck WIFI cafe’ downstairs and upstairs is now the juniors mess. Anything related or tarred with the name has gone. Gen

We jointed Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum's house.

Who?

My brother was in Jeremy Hunt's house last year.

He was there in a business capacity, him and his wife was there also.

My mate is just after buying a second hand E-Class that used to belong to Jacob Rees Mogg. I had it sitting at 130mph a few weeks ago.

As for my most famous meeting of a celebrity, does Martin McGuinness count?

martin mcguiness definately doesn’t count. As for the other 2 celebs they don’t count as it’s not really you meeting them.


My claim to fame. The crankies. They live not far from me.

Fandabidossi...
