Jack Charlton in Durty Nellys pub, County Clare, Ireland. Said Hello
George Best in Holiday Inn Hotel's bar, Earls Court. He was too busy trying to get some girls to eat with him to talk to us
Van Morrisson in the same bar, same night. My mate bought him a drink, he didn't say a word
David Kitt, Aer Lingus check-in desk, Heathrow. Missed his flight, still had a brief chat.

Edit: Oh, but none of them today.

I flew Carl Foggarty from Geneva to Manchester, and Jezza McWilliams back to Belfast (from Alicante I think). I've flown football and rugby teams and film crews around, the cabin crew say some of the actors are a great dissapointment in the flesh.

I bumped into Winey Amehouse in the coffee shop next to work last week. She looked a bit rough.

Of course, Cronos meeting Valentino in the Alitalia lounge at Heathrow, being start struck and utterly failing to get his autograph has to be one of the best.

I work in TV, so it's not fair, but I've had my hand down Claudia Schiffer's top, interviewed the new James Bond, chatted to Ewan McGregor about his next bike trip, slept in Ozzie and Sharon Osbourne's hotel room, and my favorite star struck moment: visited the scrapheap challenge heap!
:D

Ok time for mine.....

Met Johhny Ball when he was rector at Glasgow Uni - he even bought be a pint :) (Zoe was also there but didnt really seem to want to be there/talk).

Met Windsor Davies on a train to Wallington from Victoria after I told him which station we were at when he couldnt see the nameplate, the thanked me, I asked if he WAS Windsor Davies - he finished reading the story in his paper then folded it and had a chat.

Met Michael Sheard (Mr Bronson from Grange Hill, Admiral Ozzle in Empire Strrikes Back and various UK Sci-Fi series) also from Aberdeen, at a couple of Sci-Fi conventions - great guy, had a few drinks with him and I am mentioned in his second Biography

Which leads to Michael Sheard introducing me to Kenny Baker (R2D2) and Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) at one of the cons.

At the same con, Teraza had a few drinks with Jeremy Bulloch (the original actor in the Bobba Fett costume)

Oh and had a chat with Troy Balis a while back when he was riding for INS-Ducati

Think thats about it - oh wait, I have Rhianna Pratchett (daughter of the Discworld author, and author in her own right) on my Instant Messenger buddy list :)

Re: Celebrities I've seen today
 

Hmm, I've seen loads having worked in TV most of my life and done the odd day backstage at festivals for my mate Daz...

Not much different to us.

Re: Celebrities I've seen today
 

Does anyone know of a list of UK based celebs who are into bikes and whom we ought to look out for on sunny weekend jaunts? The only ones I can think of are obvious, Richard hammond (Top Gear) in the Cotswolds, Angelina Jolie (somewhere near Kent I suspect), and obviously Mr Ewan McGregor n Mr Borman. Who else might we see out on the road?
