most famous person you have met

Nick Faldo and Jordan at book signings
Tim Westwood at our student uni
Quite a few Wolves footballers (one used to live with us when he was on YTS)
Chris Eubank in a bar in London
Had lunch with Graham Hick once at my cricket club 'sixes' tournament
The Great Khali (wrestler) - he trained in our gym when they came to the NIA

Jerry Springer
SuperGrass

Me and my 1st hubby met Ron Haslem at a kickboxing match,it was at the time he was racing the JPS Norton.

I sat on Ayrton Senna's shoulders when I was a small lad, when he was racing over here in the junior formula. He was racing against my old man

Racers - lots, notably pouring a glass of red wine over Michael Rutter while we were having a meal. I also used to stay at former 500GP racer Paul Lewis' home in Maidenhead when I was working down this end of the country and living up north - he's a close friend. Stirling Moss is also one of the nicest blokes I have ever met.

Showbiz celebs - a few, nicest of the lot being Dido, at a party. I didn't even recognise her and chatted her up for an hour before my mate told me who she was. I also knew Kim Wilde rather well before she got famous. Once upon a time I bought Geri Halliwell some chips too. As far as a/holes go, Bruce Foxton, formerly of The Jam, is top of my list.

Royalty - a couple (I had the Queen look me up and down as she rode past on a horse). I got chatting to a rather lovely posh burd once at a car showroom I was visiting, and she turned out to be Zara Phllips - what a thoroughly charming young lady she is.

David Prouse, I think his name was/is? He came to our school too.

Quite a short list for me: Eric Bristow, Nigel Benn and James Blunt. Twice.

I thought he only did it in cars down country lanes?
