Celebrity encounter on the way home

Post by Batman » Tue Oct 23, 2007 5:38 pm

So there I was driving home from work through Preston and who should I see walking down the road but KENNY BAKER

I screeched to a halt, got out and went and shook his hand and got his autograph!

What a legend. Lovely bloke as well................

Preston drawing a 'big club' like Coventry in the cup?

Scientists confirming that the first case of 'ugly bird flu' originated from Preston?

Hollywood deciding to film 'Resident Evil 5' in Preston to save money on make up and CGI?

Bazza, the funny town drunk setting fire to the school again?

A new fad called 'shellsuits' has just arrived and all the barber shops are packed out with people wanting 'tight perms with tail'?

The Earth has been confirmed as being flat!!?
YOU CLIMB OBSTACLES LIKE OLD PEOPLE FXCK!!!!!!!!!!!
