Re: famous people we may have met

Ive met john pertwee once when i was working in smiths in Cardiff, He asked me where the pencil sharpeners were, i was bending down at the time and he made me jump, he sounded just like worzel gummige and hes really tall, normally i should have taken the customers to the right aisle, but i just sort of pointed and muttered over there. See colin jackson all the time shopping in tescos, or marks & spencers, seen him in asda too, also seen that woman from driving school in asda, cant remember her name thou, im sure someone will tell me. And we met rick waller in benidorm, walking down the street towards us, well you could hardly miss him, he is huge in real life ,we had a photo taken with him , he can really sing thou, as we seen him perform , the following night.

Re: famous people we may have met

It was only after Steve Davis lost the '85 Snooker Final to Dennis Taylor that it emerged what a genuinely nice guy and good sport Steve is. Everyone likes him since then.

Steve has always been interesting, he has an awesome collection of northern soul, jazz and psych on vinyl. Top man!
