    I think there are some famous people on here that do keep schtum.

    As for people sat near in pubs – Craig Charles, and the Levellers, not in the same pub at the same time though.

    I’ve played snooker with Jimmy White, Andy Gray and Willie Thorne. WT opened a new snooker hall in Malvern many years ago and I was picked at random* to play him..
    When I was introduced to the crowd it was something like “6 times world champion, 3 times masters champion, 6 times UK champion…ladies and gentlemen….Steve Davis”…
    My name is Steve Davies..and I was 14 at the time

    I’ve met Her Maj and was on Central news as an RAF cadet when there was a big Spitfire dig locally (marching down the road and standing to attention when the commemorative plaque was unveiled)

    I’ve served Robert Plant and Nigel Kennedy drinks in The Morgan pub.

    *might have had something to do with the fact that I worked there 😯

    I sat on the next table to Sue Barker at the Applecross Inn and then, whilst having my one and only ever riding lesson near Broadway, she drove past in her car. I think she’s stalking me.

    I served World Cup winning ginger squeaky-voiced Alan Ball (RIP) many a time in the Moss Rose pub in Alderley Edge. He drank Carling top, and occasionally a Jamesons.

    Met loads of A,B,C,D-list celebs through work too numerous to mention.
    I photographed Cherie Blair for an ad campaign last year which is a bit more interaction that serving her a drink in a pub 🙄

    i politely asked jeremy kyle, to his face, to “get out of my way” this morning on my commute to work (my work is right next to granada studios and he was stood in the street with his ‘psychologist’ mate, right outside the entrance to our underground car/bike park).
    he called me a prick.

    His twitter is funny, especially when he goes out on the lash and then has to apolagise to his parents. 🙂

    Harold Shipman was my GP many years ago, and we briefly lived next door to the moors murderers when I was very young…
    I don’t think they came on here though..

    I once met a lost Arthur Scargill in the streets of Nottingham and deliberately gave him the wrong directions.

    My cousin once dated Clive James’ daughter – does that count as the most tenuous claim to fame on here?

    My cousin works at a big London theatre. She almost introduced me to Jenny Agutter once.

    Also, I shot the sheriff.

    I sat on the next table to Kevin McCloud in a little cafe in Portree on Skye. He and (I assume) Mrs McCloud seemed to be having a bit of a tiff.

    I met Lemmy in the St Moritz club in Soho nd tried to drink him under the table with the help of Jack Daniels, I woke up in a flat in Golders Green where a very ex girlfriend was upstairs in bed with Jason Newstead.

    It’s clear that the tread title has, as usual, no bearing whatsoever on the content.
