Was in my local a couple of weeks ago, when one of the old regular restaurant customers came in. Quite posh, but she always used to say hello and chat etc. She comes in while im at the bar, says hello what am i up to workwise now etc, all nice an friendly. Anyway, after she had gone the chef tells me its f**kin Kate Moss's mum !!! Must have known her for 5 yrs and never knew ! Then i started thinking all the famous ppl who have been in my little "middle of nowhere" country pub. I know Davina as she married my mate Matt, played once in a band with Ronnie Corbetts daughter Sophie (shes a darlin, he's a short arse!), Louise Nurdin has been in a few times, she was bought up round here too. Andrew Ridgely about 15 yrs back, Robert Powell, and a few eastenders / pooty soap acting people.
All the boys from Lost prophets (excpet DJ) The boys from Funarel for a friend the guy from dirty sanchez... The guitarist from Raging speed horn... I'll think of more later
Couple more i thought of....... Peter Green from Fleetwood Mac ( Who?!!!!! i hear most of ya saying ) Played a game of pool with Frankie Detorri after a race at Lingfield.......... again didnt really know who the f**k it was til after
Seen plenty at work, but I'm not the type that gets impressed by fame. Don't have much time for them. Only ordinary people that have been on telly.
Aye. We get loads of them coming in to work (theme parks). Some are really nice down to earth people (spent half a day with the Sugababes once ), but others are right arrogant shites. We've been told to clear a ride and shut down the photo system before for a certain couples oddly named children
errr not personally, but here's a few encounters from memory.. I f*cked a bird who the night before was giving a blow job to Ronan Keating. I nearly got run over by Prince Charles at Windsor Castle On a trip to France with work, we were doing Micheal Fish impressions when all of a sudden Micheal Fish walked into the bar area and ordered a drink...wtf!?!?
quite a few famous live near me (not that i know them)... ali bastian (becca from hollyoaks), carol vorderman, rolf harris, timmy mallet. only sort of famous person i know is david brabham (ex f1 racer)
