have you met or do you know anyone famous, either now or from way back?

maybe you used to hang out with someone who went on to form one of the most important alternative rock bands of the 1980's? or maybe that's just me

CANTERBURY

I was the basis for one of 6 main (ish) characters in a 1990's television serial...and no,I am not telling.

When I was 16, I worked Saturdays in a wallpaper and paint retailer in North London. I served Clifford Rose, who played Kessler, the SS chief in Secret Army and he was polite to me and did not even hint about shipping me off to a camp for special treatment. He bought some paint stripper.

I also served Martin Shaw who was in the middle of his 'Professionals' era. He wanted some white spirit....and he didn't run around kicking in doors.

Nigel Hawthorne often walked past the shop but never came in.

I can only assume that they wanted the products for getting stage paint off........and Nigel didn't need the stage make up!

Okay, got a few so here goes...

Swapped Xmas cards with Sandi Toksvig for a few years... we had/have a shared interest...

As a result of my career since 2001, I have conveyed in my car:-

Phil Tufnell (nice guy)

Mad Frankie Fraser and 2 of his 'associates' (absolute gentlemen and gave a a mahooosive tip!)

Nigel Farage - twice (who didn't try to recruit me as a UKIP candidate - thankfully!)

As a result of the job I did between 1992-99....

I saved one Home Secretary from having to resign..

Got to meet and socialise with most of the Peers in the House of Lords.

Got tipsy with Ann Widdecombe and the former Head of MI6..

And.... here's my big gun.....

Performed a unique 'service' for HM The Queen Mother... and got to have tea with her privately as a result at Clarence House. Absolutely lovely lady.... who paid more attention to the horse racing on her two telly's than she did me!!!!

I met Michael Palin at one of his lectures for booksellers when he released his 'Himalaya' book. Shook his hand and had a little natter, he's very shy but lovely.

I also met Bill Bryson, Ainsley Harriot and Nigella Lawson when they did signings at the bookshop I worked in.

The weirdest was last June, seeing David Guest and a body guard emerging from a Smart car outside a bar in York whilst on my step sister's hen do. He was very spaced out but friendly enough.

When I was a coach driver I picked up the Shaktor Donetsk team from Gatwick and chauffeured them around for a few days when they played Arsenal in the Champions League. When I told them that I was an Arsenal fan they genuinely believed that I would do something to sabotage them.
