You must be fairly local to me - Robbie Coltrane lives in my town. He used to come into Tesco when I worked there. I never served him, but he got the reputation of being a complete prick.

Sat and had drinks next to Gordon Smith in a local bar, next to his daughter during her 18th.

Served Jonathan Watson many a time in Tesco - never had the balls to say "Shockeroonie" though

Rangers player Lorenzo Amoruso used to live two streets up from me so I saw him quite a lot. And another french rangers player used to live behind me but I can't remember his name - used to always see him in his Bentley Continental GT.
