The Irv Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 half of my class in school were extras in Byker Grove during the mid 90's I once got p****d with Neil "Razor" Ruddock when he was a guest speaker at an industry dinner a few years ago. When I was 18 I woke up one Saturday morning with a vague recollection of having a rather drunken, heated debate with Chris Waddle outside the local chippy on a Friday night. Quote

I've had my picture on the WSCC calendar Me too. Went shooting and quad biking on my mates stag do with the lads who rode the motox bikes in rita bob n sue too. They were s***e at quading and riding road bikes just in the right place at the right time for the film. Pretty poor that one. Met Mathew Wilson in a night club in Kelso, he was wearing a watch with a ridiculously sized face, kept taking the P**s by asking him the time was a good hour before he realised. Quote
Darren B Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Nearly tripped up Chris Akabusi whilst rushing for a flight. At a open day recently with my Westy and from behind me came a "so is this a Cateringvan race car then" type comment. When I turned around to offer the scornful "no actually it's a Westfield" reply, I was face-to-face with Prince Michael of Kent Worked with Ewan McGregors Brother. Met Kate Winslet at a dinner function. Dropped a bomb on Iraq (Not very PC that one!) Quote
