I have a great photo of me and (the original) Cpt Birdseye. It's on here somewhere.
I have Dame Helen Miren and Sarah Hadland (Miranda and Peep Show) come in to my work from time to time. Meet Rat Scabies a few times, top top bloke and mad as a box of frogs.

Oh I forgot one of my favourite ones - I trimmed a Honda CRV in leather for Tamzin Outhwaite a few years back, just after she left Eastenders. She was waiting to collect the car while I was still reinstalling the seats so she came and had a look as I worked. I thought she was far nicer looking in real life than she appears on screen, and she was a genuinely lovely lady. She was over the moon with the leather trim too
![]() Haven't met this one but this afternoon, on behalf of a workmate, I posted a small package to Simon LeBon. He bought a part for a motorbike from my workmate on ebay. |

Had a business lunch with Des Lynam and Chris Cowdrey.
Had a pint with Trigger out of Only Fools in the Shakespeare in Birmingham city centre when he wandered in one night. I couldn't remember his real name and called him Trigger at one point. He was very nice about it. In a restaurant in Birmingham one night Peter Schmeichel and David Ginola were at the next table. Schmeichel sparked a fag at the end of his meal. Spoke to Cerys Matthews at a Burns Supper. She's probably got over it by now. Met various Rugby players when blagging RBS hospitality at Murrayfield. Scott Hastings, Andy Nicoll, Austin Healey. I've just realised that at each of the above events, I was quite drunk. |

Kevin Schwantz, Freddie Spencer, Wayne Raney, Mat Mladin, Eric Bostrum, Nicky Haden and loads more but was working as a reporter at the time so don't know if that counts.
Saw Twiggy in a restaurant once. Few racer pics from back in the day: http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=104938&page=1

When I was in Germany a couple of years ago and hired a car to go around the Nurburgring cause it was pi$$ing down and didn't want to go round on my bike.
There were another group there renting cars. Turned out to be Ben Spies and his WSB entourage.
