Robert Plant drinks in my old local, and I went to school with his son,k and my dad was at school with him so i've spoke to him a few times, and got him to sign my led zep albums on a school open evening

I played darts with Bobby George in my ex's local a few years back as its where he hangs out sometimes

I saw Reo-Coker, Fabian Delph, Ashley Young and Richard Dunne in a dodgy club a month or two ago and said hello, they were a bunch of cocks

Gordon Banks used to live close to my mum and dad and I saw him a few times as a kid

Got told off by Geoff Capes when i was a kid, they were still doing the shot put when i ran on to the field for his autograph. Saw Lenny Mclean on the door at the Hippodrome. Saw the Big Yin (the real one Billy Connolly) when he had just done a show in Corby, he then came across to the town i live in and was just going in a Chinese restaurant.

(literally) Bumped into dec of ant and dec fame when I was 15 and he was with that bird out of grange hill he was seeing at the time.

Met clarkson at the Arena Essex raceway when the old mean street cruise was going strong back in the day!

Gloria "I'm a stuck up cunt" hunniford lives up the road from me - used to serve her when I was on the tills in sainsburys.

Cheryl baker, again working at sainsburys

nigel mansell when he was testing at brands hatch in the willliams f1 car back in the 90's

andy Fordham ate in my pub a couple of times, his bird had a massive burger while he sat there with a salad!!

The Ginger one from girls aloud was in my pub whilst she was recording at a studio down the road

cooked Kelly holmes some chips at my pub as it was after 9 and the chef had fucked off home and she was starving

50cent, Al Pachino, and Robert De Nero at a premier in leicester square, De Nero was the only one who really had a quick chat with - the bloke is a legend!

And most recently David Dickinson at gatwick airport

Also saw Pat Butcher at Crufts last year (she was in the hound group).
My dog - if this counts - comes from probably the most famous Staffy family in the country (in doggy circles anyway). His mum & dad are regularly in Dogs Today magazine -they are in this months issue. His dad did an advert for Dogs Trust and his sister was on It's Me or the Dog a couple of weeks ago showing how a well trained dog can be taught to do tricks (she was skateboarding). When my dog was a pup he did an advert for Autarky dog food.
