I've worked on a couple of houses belonging to sort of famous people. They're not gunna be appearing in any gossip magazines, though, that's for sure. They are known in their areas, but not well knownk to the public.

They could have done a whole series of Grand Designs on one of the houses! It was unbelievable. I have no idea how much it would be worth, but I would guess well in excess of £10mill.

I'm not working at present but have met a few famous people in the past whilst working...

Met Steven Segal in Toronto while I was working at Tower records on Yonge St. He came in with his body guards expecting fans to rush him... nothing happened and he gave the store some free passes to the set of the movie he was currently filming "Exit Wounds".

Also met Sylvester Stallone whilst he was filming "The Driver" in Toronto that same summer, I was ogling over the Indy race cars and ended up behind the security screen for a close up look at the machine. He strolled out of a tent next to the car and said "enjoy the show" ? He was referring to the podium awards, he swaggered up with some gorgeous creatures and sprayed some bubbly around.
Didn't realise he's acutally shorter than me by quite a bit (I'm a lofty 5ft 10).

Also drove Denise Van Outen from Langs Hotel in Glasgow to the airport, she was very flirty and a lot thinner than I expected. Whilst working for a limo company in my University years. Met Noel Gallagher when Oasis played the SECC and they were staying at the Hilton. Apparently they were booked in as "Dagenham Chess Club".

Recently I met DJ Carey of Irish hurling fame whilst working on his super expensive golf/holiday home in Mount Juliet in Kilkenny Ireland in 2007. Apparently he's quite revered down there??


My wife on the other hand seems to have met many celebs through their sick animals, she's treated countless NFL, basketball and movie celebrity's pets who need urgent care.
What was noel like?

Used to work in a TV studios' kitchen, keeping them all fed, no celebs as such, a few newsreaders that are now on Sky or ITV, and relatives of a couple of popular songstresses.
It's always nice to see the familiar faces on TV smile

ETA, and Edward Woodward once asked me for ice to go with his diet coke- I didn't have any paperbag

My brother worked for Nigel Mansell (or at least one of the companies he owns) and he got to meet him once.
