Re: Has anyone here got any claims to fame?'
I once rang Jimmy Wagg and lost it slightly...................before the git cut across me just as I was getting into my stride.
Apart from that, er, I was at Sandhurst with Joan Collins's sister (she's 30 years younger.......and was gorgeous) and Chris De Burgh's cousin (he was a complete tw*t). Ryan Gigg's brother once told me who he was and that I didn't dare try and take him on outside Piccadilly 21. That didn't end well for him.

To be clear. Is the bold bit referencing Rhodri Giggs or Bob?Harry Genshaw wrote:And to make matters worse, when he got home he found his Mrs in bed with his brotherBijou Bob wrote:I once rang Jimmy Wagg and lost it slightly...................before the git cut across me just as I was getting into my stride.

I wondered the same. And there you were trying to claim to me you were a good boy Harry. Shocking stuff!Burnden Paddock wrote:To be clear.

I think he's getting confused with Spartacus.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Wouldn't say 'fame' but my sister in law's uncle is premiership referee Lee Mason and on the other side of the family her cousin is Andrew Kellet.

Lee Mason gave me the impression he his a big head.hi there, i'm chris wrote:Wouldn't say 'fame' but my sister in law's uncle is premiership referee Lee Mason and on the other side of the family her cousin is Andrew Kellet.
The line "...if I wasn't a premier league referee then I would be a millionaire..." made more than a few eyes in the room roll.

I was once Alexander the Greats chief eunuch.
The voices in my head may not be real...but they have some great ideas!

Tatum O'Neill had a wander around my stall at the Last Drop antiques market when she was filming International Velvet at Park Hall, back in 1978. Got her autograph for the kids.

I was in the lift in Whittaker's in 1976 with my girlfriend and Peter Reid and Sam Allardyce.
It's fair to say they acted very childishly, opening and closing the doors, pressing all (3 ??) floor buttons and commenting on my partners, rather nice, arse. Not impressed, but Sam was huge even back then.

I once walked past Tony Blackburn on the pavement in front of Freddie Mercury's house.
Not sure that's strictly a claim to fame though.
