Eric Bristow the darts player.
I was at a Plumbing and a Heating exhibition at Chelsea FC and went on a stadium tour, this was free for anyone interested, there was this bloke on the tour who at the time I thought was a dead ringer for Eric, but as the exhibition was a trade only all ticket event I thought why would an ex top darts player be there.
Later in the day he was standing near me and some lads asked him for a photo, so spoke to him and said I had heard him on the radio that week( talk sport) he was really put out and said " nah mate you saw me on the telly"

You live in MK like me, what a mug.
Still, at least I'm escaping the chavs and aliens and moving to Sussex in April.
Not that I'm a racist. I just like to see some white bros around me once in a while.
This morning I was the only Anglo Saxon in Lloyds Bank; as I drive the mile to work, I don't pass an English person. something wrong there.
I'm out.

Seen loads in bars, clubs around the world ... Bieber, Paris Hilton, dicaprio, Lohan etc
Some of the more memorable ...
Sat next to Ronaldo in restaurant in LA definitely one of the most orange people I've ever seen
Many years ago had a few drinks with Ben stiller and Owen Wilson in a club called chinawhite in London very down to earth, legends. This was back in the olden days where there weren't many "members only" clubs and real celebs actually went!
There was a Victorias secrets shoot at the hotel I was staying at in miami a couple if weeks ago, which was pretty memorable

The Camel
Well-known member
I tripped over Steffi Graf at the NikeTown store, Las Vegas.
I'm a fat *******, I could have killed her. Poor woman was terrified.
Played poker with various celebs. Shane Warne, Tobey Maguire, Boris Becker and Yevegny Kafelnikov
Best moment was when Teddy Sheringham came up to me "Are you the Camel?" When I nodded he he offered his hand "Pleased to meet you, my name is Teddy"
Like any 40 something English bloke wouldn't recognise Teddy

Loads through work, including several prem football managers/players (London based, primarily), Joan Collins (yes, still fit, but daughter was fitter), Gloria Estefan (in Miami).....oddest encounter was with my dad after a fishing club meeting in a pub in Exeter many years ago, popped into the bar for a drink after, only two people there were Viv Richards and Joel Garner. As a Somerset season ticket holder at the time this was awesome........
Harry Judd is a nice bloke (met through charity running London Marathon), plus his Mrs and the other girls in that classical group whose name I've forgotten.

What an eclectic mix. I love the fact you've got Arthur Mullard at number 1 ahead of Suzanne Shaw and Malcolm. mclaren. Then got Prince Charles sandwiched in between Hugo from the vicar of Dibley and Chris Eubank
