Terry Venables held the door open for me so that I could leave a bar in a London Hotel.

I was sitting outside the admin offices at Highbury one morning and Arsene Wenger walked past and said "Good Morning" to me.

My mums cousin used to be Chairman of Brentford FC.

So I have a Triple Claim to Lame Fame

:lolol:

I had my photo taken with Jimmy Tarbuck at a pro-celebrity gold tournament when I was about ten.

I believe the photo still exists, in it I am wearing an orange Kagoul and a comedy-rabbit-ears hat that came from Thorpe Park
:blush:

Even sadder, I got dragged to the same tournament the next year, to get the photo signed

:thud:

I met tom baker in london, spoke to norman cook in the king and queen just before the swindon play-off games. saw adam virgo in smugglers after a home game near the end of the 2003-04 season. Spoke to will packham in creation and we sung stevie coppel has vd song to him. On an away trip there was a bird from a channel 4 series, i think it was shamless, not sure but other people i was travelling to the game with knew who she was. but most famously of all spoke to molango on 3 different occasions, once near weatherspoons in west street where he was trying to chat up some birds with the "i'm a footballer" line, we helped him pull them as we said that he played for brighton, it was just after hes goal against reading and for some reason i called him a legend, another time at half time at white hart lane, and also in the event!

In year 7 I was interviewed by an Australian news channel on a science trip to Sussex Uni.

Rubbed Des Lynam's head after he was "wetted" for Falmer.

Said Hello to Tony Cottee once at some motorway services on the way back from Mylton Keynes.
