Who is the most famous person you have seen/met?


Recommended Posts

oooh well I used to work for 12 years in hotel so got to meet quite a few famous people. Some very nice. So not so! I hate to think how some of em live at home!

 

Posh and Becks used to come in on a Sunday afternoon in Manchester when they were just starting to get together. Must say, very nice people.

 

But loads of other personalities, sporting (Gary Lineker, Ian Woosman virtually every snooker player and more), television (John Motson is as a big an anorak in real life as he is on tv!!), I could put a very long thread!!

That's about it! :)

 

Spiffing JJP! All those meetings with Governement Ministers on The Terrace and amongst Commons Chambers..... I see now, the BS that they spout on a daily basis must be rubbing off on yourself! You really ought not keep spouting all this BS, it is jolly funny to read, but really you aren't qualified to do so until you hold a Bulls**t Certificate (aka: a BSc), or is it a BA at the management school?

 

Did you get to see the Shark amongst all those big tall adults at Saatchi back in 1992, my, you must have been ........ 9yrs old?

 

Anyhow, I'm off to whip up some fennel & quails eggs pancakes with truffle jus. A recipe I learnt when I was working as a trained chef in the Ritz.

 

Ta ta!
