Once on a photo assignment, I had an argument with George Robertson (nato defence secretary) at the 5 star Park hotel in Siena over whether it was appropriate to be taking pictures of the guests sitting around the pool.

I once spoke to "Nasty" Nick Bateman from the first Big Brother over the phone
 
I once discussed flinging some midgets with the boys of Green Day and Catherine Wheel. The midgets laughed about it, and discussed flinging us (but I fink we could of 'ad 'em).

Also went pub crawling in Hollywood with David Rappaport, main Time Bandit, and a good bloke (r.i.p.)

Also, last june in Egypt I had a similar experience with 'Martin' from eastenders.

To be fair he was very pleasant and very apologetic when he found out that I had no intention of photographing him and his girlfriend topless by the pool.

I hadn't even noticed them, however it did occur to me, only briefly though, that I could have made some decent money from OK or Hello magazine for said pics.

:D

I saw Eddie 'the Eagle' Edwards doing an appearance outside Sport and Ski. I only got his autograph because nobody seemed to notice he was there and I was feeling sorry for him. I lost it by the time I got home, but I don't think he knows that. [/B][/QUOTE]

And i know the bloke who bonked kevin keegan over the head when he was a kip in a lay-by.

I served Kate O'Mara in Waitrose (f*** me she's ugly).

I stood next to Fatboy Slim and Neil Hannon at a bar.

Stu Francis told me to piss off.

I went to college with Stephen Grant (Comedy Steve).

In a previous job I had telephone conversations with Adam Woodyatt, Craig Fairbrass, Danny La Rue (barking), Marco Pirroni (3 times - nicest bloke in the world), Tara Palmer-Tompkinson (numerous times - mad but very lovely), Stan Collymore, and Puff Daddy to name but a few.

Oh, and my Grandad used to be in Coronation Street. Bernie Clifton came to his memorial service (without the ostrich).

How have you managed to post that twice, with a 30 minute gap in between doing so?
