cuttsie Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Yes, but in places it just ends up being an interminable list of names of moderately famous people. The best ones are the ones with at least one additional detail (apart from where and when it happened), such as what the famous person was wearing or doing or eating, or what they said to you, or whether they had their dog with them and what sort it was, that kind of thing. Just naming the person you met is unremarkable. Bo Didley said to me "That is one of a hellava accent you have "" I replied who the flick are you".L.A. He was listening to himself on a Sony Walkman . Jimmy Clithero said ." what are you drinking grandad" Adelphi Hotel Sheffield. around 1961. Una Stubbs Said ,"No i'm Lilo Lil' ,Crucible Sheffield.She is a lady.1995 ish. Clint Eastwood replied "I think I was the Mayor at one time " A bar near Monterey California .He gave me directions to highway one. Rachel Roberts said ,"go away and multiply" or words to that effect;) Steve Davies Said ,Hello how are you at the Canal Tavern in ThorneDoncaster , din't even recognise him at the time.

ANGELFIRE1 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 " Neil Kinnock Arthur Scargill David Blunkett " I don't think I would own up to meeting the three above, even if they all chipped in and bought a round. Angel1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johncocker Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Sir Cliff Richard - a long time ago. Hank Marvin and Bruce Welsh of The Shadows - again a long time ago. More recent David Blunkett - several times. I know it was a long time ago wendy and your memory could be a little hazy but I feel I do have to ask these questions, 1/how old were you .? 2/were you alone with sir Cliff? 3/was it at a christian rally? 4/did he at anytime during that meeting try and sing "the young ones":suspect: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Se7enhills Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Prince Charles at a railway station rather late at night, not his local one though. He said Good Evening as he passed by as did the detective with him - I was ever so slightly surprised to see him there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
