  6. I am a Blue Peter badge winner. I came runner up in a postcard/stamp design thingamyjig for world children week or something. I was excited to be able to gain free entry to museums and such-like, that was until I reaslised that most museums were infact free anyway.

    I scored a goal past Laurie Sivell.... Pele did too in 'Escape to Victory'. Therefore I am just as good as Pele.

    I am (kinda) on the Madness 'House of fun' Video. I played the part of 'blonde haired kid pushed to the back of the rabble by the bigger kids and can hardly see me during the brief second that scene is on screen' I played it well I thought :)
     
  7. Saw Danny Divito on other side of road in New York.
    Ran over and told him i was the world pee-knuckle champion and asked if I could get a photo with him for the World Pee-knuckle magazine..

    The paparazzi who were there took this pic..

    I was sat in the train just yesterday with DJ Andy Peebles who was charming and very interesting, made the journey a pleasure.

    I appear variously as a mugger or street robber in many Police training course pictures (I was working as a programmer when they were shooting scenarios for online training, when the model didn't turn up they'd ask in the office for volunteers - I am still bitter about the type casting).

    I've played rugby against or with many of the best players in England and Wales over the 1989 to 2005 period, including Steve Thompson's first game at hooker.

    I shared a flat with Colin Sturgess at University (he was the World Professional Pursuit Champion) - this was around the time when Chris Boardman road the Lotus Carbon fibre bike to gold in Barcelona. We were watching a question of sport with Boardman on it and he elected to go 'home' for his question and we watched some fella wizzing around a track to silver at the Seoul Olympics - Chris was asked did he have any idea who the guy was - he said as calmly as you like - I do know him pretty well, its me!! - He was a legend.

    I am the highest poster of nonsense on the late bay site, although this is due to chrisradioman having lost his camera.
     
  15. I was on a plane once with Colin Firth and Rys Ifans. They were both surprisingly normal :(...

  20. I'm on Fatboy Slim's BBB2 DVD :)

    2.28 although the flag made a few appearances before i appear and to be honest its not the greatest shot. Look out for the guy in the England top. I was mangled on all sorts that day. Ended up spending 3 days in Brighton off my trolley. Slept on the beach and even spent a night in a blue waste bin round The Lanes in between partying and then having a bath in the sea. Mental weekender :)

    Fat Boy Slim - Big Beach Boutique II

    Others moments include, having a drink with Dave Courtney & Goldie at the Southcoast Weekender at Camber Sands after litrally bumping square on in to Dave Courtney whilst i was trollyed. Thought i was going to get a slap but ended somehow having a drink and a chat with them. Very surreal moment.

    My personal fav. Bumping in to Ashley Cole just after breaking in to the Arsenal first team. Again i was trolleyed in a nighclub and just bumped in to him. I remember saying, oi your Ashley Cole, and he just kissed his teeth at me. He was with Matthew Upson as well. Now me being a Tottenham boy i wasn't having any of this so i proceeded to call him, well you can guess what i said ;). I then proceeded to spend the rest of the evening chanting, Ashley Cole's a banker, when ever i clocked him. Transpired that i was indeed correct.
