I met and shook hands with Princess Diana when she visited the then new Leyland Daf Assembly Plant.
I worked at Leyland Daf. I was an apprentice, and I worked in ‘lecky pen’, and spurrier works. Where did you work?
Admin at Farington (Supplies Dept.)
But at the time of Princess D’s visit, I was in Remanufacturing at CPO.I have been on the weakest Link. I got to the 5th round and there were 2 votes for me and 2 votes for this woman called Ann, anyhow the strongest link gets the casting vote and its also a woman. So she is standing there holding her board up with this other woman’s name ( Ann ) on it. Well I know its a woman’s prerogative but the bitch fcukin changed her mind and sent me packin !! :twisted:Gotta be the winner so far :)
How long ago was this?
I think it was about 5 or 6 years ago of the top of my head. fil was on some kids TV programme as well. I can’t remember its name? I am sure he will remember it. something to do with kids getting there own back on there parents?
I think it was about 5 or 6 years ago of the top of my head. fil was on some kids TV programme as well. I can’t remember its name? I am sure he will remember it. something to do with kids getting there own back on there parents?I was on Swap Shop at Central Park. I got in the ‘ring’ with Cheggers and swapped some crappy (fairly expensive) pottery making thing I got for christmas for an even crappier (and much cheaper) plastic rugby ball (I know, the shame!).
Anyway, I was that thick I forgot it was on live TV and, of course, my mum and dad saw the whole sorry episode. I was subsequently grounded for a week and my dad put a knife through the rugby ball – every cloud and all that.
We used to have a neighbour who would put a knife through your ball if it went over his fence !! Must have been the done thing back in the day ! The kids programme Jeff was Get Your Own Back ! And Weakest Link appearance was Sept 2002 but was filmed in the May !
The story with get Your Own Back was this kid on my window cleaning round was being filmed at home for the programme, as they have a little video at the beginning showing why the kid wants to get their own back on the adult, in this case his Mum for constantly playing Rod Stewart records which he hated ! Well I was there cleaning the windows when I got a brain wave and knocked on the door to ask what they thought of my idea ! I suggested the kid be sat on the front door step with his head in his hands looking totally depressed as Rod Stewart blasted out of the windows of the house. I would then appear at the end of the drive with ladder and bucket and say ” Hello Craig ” and then whilst noticing the music say ” Oh no, not Rod Stewart again, I’ll come back tomorrow ” ! The next thing I know I’m stood on the drive with a bloke shouting ” And action ” !! It is really funny watching it back because my accent is really broad Lancashire and I look a right scruffy get with ripped jeans etc !!I think it was about 5 or 6 years ago of the top of my head. fil was on some kids TV programme as well.

I was on Cheggers Plays Pop when I was at Gidlow, and we battered a school from Oldham.My name didn’t get picked out of a hat to take part in the games, so I had to make do with sitting behind Gary Davies for the entire show.
I took a penalty and scored against the England goalkeeper of the time, Ray Clemence, at Butlins Skegness in 1976.
i spent all my money on tickets for the game and told them they were rubbish. :evil:

Childish? Unfair? Unwarranted? Maybe, but there’s only bloke ruining his own day fretting about it. Me? It’s simply taking my mind off the shyte butties the wife made me for lunch*
* dinner to you
Went to 2001 Champions League Final in Milan.
Called in to a supermarket not far from the stadium and met Olivier Bierhoff (who was then with AC) getting some ale in to watch the match.
Stood in The Louvre in Paris looking at the Mona Lisa, Turned round to see Iggy Pop a couple of yards away.
