Well my best mate, Shell is a celebrity brat. Her dad is the lead in the Irish band, The Fureys.
At the launch party I was a few weeks ago, I met a few people...One was Samantha Mumba....another was Glenda Gibson.
I met Ross Kemp in a bar in my own town lol.... had a great laugh with him, actually. I've met Brendan O Carroll, mainly because he's a friend of Shell's family....even I'm surprised sometimes at the people she introduces me to.

The son of one of the Wolfe Tones, Ryan Warfield,....erm....stalked me for a while..... kept sending me abusive emails and texts. In the end I had to get Shell's dad to tell Ryan's dad to have a word with him..... Gah.

So far I have met George Mombiot and Robert Newman through my involvement in Reclaim the Streets in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Rob Newman also spoke at the year 2000 anarchist bookfair which I saw.

Ex Sex Pistol Glen Matlock at a Sex Pistols convention in Manchester in 1988. Glenda Jackson when she visited a homeless drop in centre I used to go to. John Bird founder of the Big Issue at the Big Issue anniversary parties.

I have also met Mike Slocombe, one of the ex drummers out of 80s band Monochrome Set, world famous website designer and founder of the website urban75 several times.

When I lived up in Staffordshire I also knew members of major local punk band Broken Bones one of whom went onto play bass for punk band Conflict. Met members of major punk band Conflict a few times at their gigs in the late 1980s. I also knew members of minor Staffordshire punk band AWOL as well who had moderate success within the punk scene. I used to hang out a lot with one of their drummers.

When i was a kid and we lived in a pub Alec Guinness stopped by for some lunch. I was too nervous to speak to him but i did shake his hand.

Bernard Manning also came to our pub once, but who wants to shake that twats hand. May he rest in peace.

We used to go to butlins in bognor almost every summer. And one year my brother Bob and I saw the chuckle brothers. My brother asked them for thier autographs, But the taller one said and i quote "F**k off kid"
i have met some really famous ppl yes, if u meet one it usually opens the door to meet more of them:)

1. About 20 yrs ago i went to walk into a lift and Max Bygraves was in it and he said to me "F**k off I'M MAX BYGRAVES" and barred the lift door....I had no idea who max bygraves was and just walked away laughing cuz I thought he was just some old drunk, til my mate told me he owned the suite upstairs and was some big star.
2. About 25 yrs ago I was in a supermarket till queue and Lulu was paying and was 1p short (the till girl obviously didnt know who she was and told her to put something back) so now she still owes me 1p!
3. I worked in a hardware store in bournemouth and I sold some wares to Leslie Crowther, Yootha Joyce, and several other people off the telly who i didnt know from adam at the time.
4. Harry Secombe sang at my school and he ruffled my hair and said I was cute.
5. John Alderton opened a fete and i was about 11 yrs old and asked him for his autograph and he said No Push off little brat so Pauline collins gave me hers instead and i cried.
6. Cliff Richard stayed at my friends dads hotel once and he had a nice chat with me, very nice bloke.
7. Met Eddie macken while in ireland on several occasions kept bumping into him and he invited us for tea at his yard but we never got there in the end which was a shame.
8. Harry Redknapp was a friend of mine's friend, and he used to come into my shop and I'd make him a cuppa - he promised faithfully he would never shite on bournemouth then whoops he buggered off and snubbed all his mates after that, too high and mighty, I will never forgive that.
9. Oh yeah, he used to bring Jamie in and I gave him sweets he was about 10) and one day jamie kept saying Daaaad I need a weeeeeeee then Daaaaad I wet myself.....well I had a spare pair of joggers cuz I used to jog to work, so Jamie Redknapp still owes me a pair of joggers!!!!
10. I printed the photos that got Christian Bale the part in Under the Sun or whatever it was called, his first one when he was 14 yrs old - his mum was having an affair with my mate a photographer ooops hope his dad dont see this!!!!
