If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

I've met surprisingly few given my advancing years.

Stu Francis
Ian Gillan
Liz Yelling
Terry Alderton
Vernon Kay and Tess Daley
Lenora Critchlow

Not massive names but all of them happy to chat for a couple of minutes, apart from Stu Francis who told me to f*ck off.

I once met God. He was flanked by Gabriel, Michael, and a host of Seraphim. He told me to go out and destroy the world. I'm thinking about it.

Just misread that, but was impressed. I'd love to be told to f*ck off by St. Francis

"Oi, f*ck off. Leave the squirrels alone". that bit spoken by St. Francis

I was thinking of using the axe to deadly effect, actually. It's the thought of the blisters I'll get that's putting me off. I really hate blisters along that soft cushion of flesh on the palm just beneath one's fingers. :|

I was with John Leslie when I met Ulrika Jonsson. Clearly something had 'gone on' between them. This was just before it all hit the news.

Having met you the other night, I'm thinking Jerry Springer. :wink:

Someone else semi-famous I've met and was reminded of the other night - Nicholas Gleaves (Actor and Bolton fan)

Actually, he was in the year below me at primary school and a thoroughly nic chap.

I also met Terry Alderton the other day. He was top of the bill at my daughter's PTA Comedy night. Had a chat with him afterwards. He's very strange.
