I entered and won a competition in a comic called whoopee in 1977 to win a peter Powell stunt kite?. I was one of the 100 lucky winners ?(big wow).while I was playing out as you do when your a 8 years old?, Mr stunt kite extraordinaire delivered in person his latest kite invention to my house. I was so gutted when my mum told me that I had missed Mr Powell delivering my prize in person honest :lol:
Was once at a corporate golf day a couple years ago attended by Bruno Brookes. Being my usual self, I didn’t wait for the correct introductions, but just went over, thrust my hand out and turned to my mate with the camera for a picture and gushed, “fck me, thanks Cheggers. Used to love you on the Telly.”

or Christopher Eccleston as he preferred to be calledI met David Blunkett when he visited our school shook his hand and stroked his golden labs. Had a picture with Chris Kamara in Tenerife. Had a chat with Andy Fordham in a kebab shop in Wigan about 5 week ago, said he was playing a qualifier at Robin park arena. Also me and my dad went golfing pulled up at St’Anne’s old links (I think) when some bloke drove his new BMW right next too us and nearly hit my dads van.

Same day i shot 1 over at st’annes played a awesome (but thats another story).

Not really a claim to fame but a stewardess on an American Airlines flight thought I was Kenneth Brannagh travelling incognito. Her proof was I had an English accent and ordered tea. I know this because she collared my brother who was sitting 10 seats in front and said this to him and he played along saying we were going to New Mexico to check out film locations.
At the time I wondered why such a glamorous woman was giving me the eye and saying she could show me round LA. I considered taking up her offer (as the penny dropped she thought I was someone famous) but I would’ve soon been sussed with my cheap budget and lack of contacts.
Did bump into Cindy Crawford at JFK on the way home though!
