Re: Has anyone here got any claims to fame?'
Been on tv twice. Once as a teenager at an Arsenal - Spurs game I went to with a spurs supporting mate - videoed by sky sports waving our scarves etc outside the ground and more recently on a chicken rescue with Bish in Essex which was filmed for channel 4 news. I wandered behind someone giving an interview as I was holding a chicken. Clearly not looking my best for the telly covered in bird poo...
Have met Dennis Bergkamp, Tony Adams, Ray Parloyr and John Lukic - oh and the archbishop of Canterbury squeezed my glow worm once. (I'm sure we have had variations on this thread before)
No threesomes with famous people though...

Also family friends of bits of Alan Ball's family that live in Farnworth
think i was in the background of an episode of 999 once but not sure, other than that, dunno.
Kenneth lived about 100 yds away from where I live now
My claim to fame is that my cousin is John McEnroe. His grandmother and mine were sisters and both left Ireland, as many did in the early 1900s, to make their fortune in the US but my grandmother was homesick and returned home. I've tried to meet up with him on the two trips to Wimbledon I have made but we have had no response to my requests which is fair enough.

Re: Has anyone here got any claims to fame?'
On a similar theme, I once had a wee in a urinal next to Marcus Brigstoke in a French motorway service station. Does that trump Fred Dibnah?Worthy4England wrote:I'd have been more impressed with the level of daring if it had been Fred the weatherman.thebish wrote:Dibnah told the tale to all who would listen for many years....Lost Leopard Spot wrote:That qualifies for a Madame Tussauds wax statue.thebish wrote:i once had a wee in the urinal next to fred dibnah... that pretty much tops any of the lame efforts so far!

I've been on Wacaday.
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.
