I used to work with Steve Martin and Rob Lowe.

I also used to work with a Steve Martin

I also once met a David Platt.

I've got a South African friend here called David Platt. Weirdly he had no idea who his namesake was.

I also used to play cricket with a guy called Peter Ward. (No, he didn't bat at every number)

My school days resulted in me once knowing a boy called Dartanian and a girl called Ariadne. I never met Ariadne's parents, but Dartanian's were really weird.

When I worked for Royal Mail I sorted a letter addressed to Mr. Francis Drake of Plymouth - that bowled me over!

Maybe not celebrity names, although they certainly should be, I delivered mail to a Ricky Rock, who was a record collector, and a certain Miss Ophelia Balls - I'm not sure what she does. :eek:

Used to work with a guy called Bruce Willis.

He brought cheese and pickle sandwiches to work every day.

You know what they say about old habits.

If you're thinking Pink Floyd it's Roger Waters.

Thanks, I've had a long day.
:thumbsup:
Yes that's him, I was going to look up the correct spelling of his name and I did type Waters first, when he phoned me up he said his name was the same as the Pink Floyd member.

I was introduced to a man called Austin Morris in the States. He was obviously used to Brits chuckling to themselves upon the introduction. He just gave me a wry smile.

Used to work with Michelle Heaton. And was speaking the other day with Steve Bull. Also stood behind a telesales girl who had to phone up and as for Michael Hunt who is sort of a celebrity on Porky's. Oh, and my dad's Stepdad was Bob Hope although it took me years to make the connection.
