Pete Docherty stayed across the road from my brother in Hammersmith, spoke to him for a few minutes, seemed decent enough, but was told it was often very wild in the evenings and police were regular visitors. Ant (no Dec) walking out of a WH Smith with a newspaper and pint of milk. Seen Billy Connolly driving around Aberdeen a few times on his 3 wheeler. Mani from the stone roses in nice n sleazys before a stone roses gig. Pat Jennings in Dublin airport. Joe Lewis frequents the same chipper as I do. I wonder if they were all thinking ' fook me, there's Dandydunn from the TAMB ? ' ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stapes Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Met Steve Earle after a gig in Newcastle. Chatted for a few minutes, and he was very cool. Saw Sadiq Khan dropping his fresher daughter off at Edinburgh Uni recently, and Ed Balls on the way to Strictly Come Danciing when down for the England game. Pointed out my Yes badge as we passed him. He seemed impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the subject of Rainbow my mate met legendary voice artist Roy Skelton on the last Tube home. Well TBH they thought it was just some random old drunk guy but he then burst into perfect renditions of George and Zippy for them. Turns out he was on his way home from Geoffrey's house too.

DoonTheSlope Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 I mind being on the Gori trip from Tbilisi two years ago and I'm positive there was a famous face on it. It was either Bez from the Happy Mondays or Gabriel from River City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I'm sure John McCririck was with the TA at the Scotland game in Brussels in 2001. Walked passed us outside some bars and I think was with some guys in kilts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Man Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Saw a wee guy I thought I knew in a hotel in south side. He was talking to someone so I just nodded and smiled and he did the same, then it became that awkward always catching each other's eye and still smiling and nodding. Hotel employee walking by asked if I knew who I was smiling at and told me it was Ed Sheerin. It was a few years ago so I was none the wiser and he was laughing about it when a good looking guy joined him and he told him why he was laughing. Good looker then asked if I knew who he was and again I didn't and he made a crack about being unknown in his own country. Telling the story a few days later I told friends I'd met Ed Sheeran and Calvin Klein, they eventually worked out it was Calvin Harris. They were here for something on at George Square. Pished out my head I congratulated the drummer from Foo Fighters for doing so well he had a gig in Glasgow and 'him all the way from America.' He was lovely and even offered us complimentary tickets to the gig. Said no as it was too nice a night to be cooped up watching a band.

Ally Bongo Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) At Trafalgar Square during Euro 96 our carry oot was running dry. We spotted an off sales which had a queue outside that everyone was flocking too We decided to go off square to look for another one and just before we ignorantly tried to get past the closed gates at the Mall we were confronted by an armed copper Where is there an off sales we asked to which he pointed to the one on the square that had the queue to an execution. Gave him the "do you think we are daft look" and he eventually disclosed that there was one on Whitcomb street just off the square We made our way through the chock a block square and were transported as if by magic to a wee empty street that nobody else had seemed to twig and there in front of us was a deserted Victoria Wine stocked to the gunnels As the four of us walked out with a disgraceful supply of drink who was walking down towards us but Bob Mortimer We waved and shouted He acknowledged then ran away in the opposite direction hiding his face Edited September 20, 2017 by Ally Bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnyTJS Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 My family had just moved out of town and so I was starting a new school - a tiny two-classroom job a few miles out of Donny. I was 9 but in the same room as those who were going on 12. One of the old kids was a lanky, frizzy haired lad. "Avoid him," said the nipper who'd been assigned to be my 'buddy' (as it wasn't called then), "His name's Jeremy Clarkson and he's a right twat."
