My teacher at school was Tony Christies brother.

I shared a P**s between Stirling Moss and John Surtees at Goodwood.

Father in laws cousin was jailed for trying to knobble the Cray twins Jury.

Regularly used to have pie and peas with, Micheal Parkinson, Seth from Emmerdale in a pub in Barnsley.

Whilst at work in a hire company met Duggie Brown and Paul Shane (he did a forty miniute stand up of the cuff for all the staff when he came to collect a car brilliant)

And Finally Prince Charles lives near me and when out in the Westfield near his home at  high speed came round a corner just as he stepped out of a lane. His protection pulled him back out of the way. They both must have been deaf or he thought he owned the roads, well not untill mummy dies!

I'll second the Chris Eubank one... we were out in town (Brighton) and bumped into him in a quiet backstreet wearing a top hat and cane. My friend said "Hi Chris" and he mumbled something baok.

Other than seeing Mark Williams of the fast show, thats it for me!

Met Sharon Davis years ago and thought she was a stuck up tart! Had always fancied her untill that day!

Met Clarkson twice, once at GWFoS and once at the top gear studio. Also met and had quite a long convorsation with Captain slow.

Walked in DC at another Goodwood while talking to a mate of mine. I wasnt looking where I was walking and niether was DC!  :D

Saw Colin McRae on the friday at recent FoS.

Saw Angela Rippon at Stanstead Airport last monday!

In some circles, my boss is a God.  To me, he's just the guy who buys us all donuts on Friday, and called Dave.  To others, he's the guy who co-wrote Elite and is Mr. Braben (or Breadbin)

Yes, Elite 4 is still coming. Hang on in there. :laugh:

Once wrestled Cofie anan (spelling) to the floor at the UN by mistake.

Does Naked cartwheeling count?

Or turning the white horse in Westbury into a Zebra?

Met Mike Kimberley last weekend and had a chat about his favourite car (hint - it's the other one in my Avatar)

Terry Pratchett spent two nights in my bed in the mid '80s (I WAS ON THE SOFA).

John Peel failed to recognise me outside Broadcasting House

Marcus Brigstocke didn't buy me a coffee when we were both sitting at Darlington station waiting to get one the same train (at opposite ends), probably because he didn't recognise me either.

Once interveiwed Alan Moore & Davie Gibbons about the Watchmen.

Played school rugby against a team that included one "E. Windsor" - the guy in the suit with the bulge in his armpit made you consider tackling very very carefully.

I've been mentioned in a Val McDermid novel

And, I used to bump into Wilf Lunn's son in the union at Edinburgh Uni.

Oh yes, and Damon Hill will be waving us off on the Beaujolais run in November
