Mr. James May 'keeps it real'

A few years ago I reversed into Jimmy "The Whirlwind" White. Not his car but the man himself as he staggered out of a club in Gloucester.
And I used to deliver Mick Kaminski's (ELO) newspapers...
Oh, I live next door to Richard Ashcroft (but not THE Richard Ashcroft!).
First post, shall I get my coat?

I turned down Victoria Adams in a pub in Maidenhead, just before the Spice Girls broke cover, and she became Posh Spice.
My actual line was "I prefer my shoes over her face", to my mate. She left, and I was refused entry to the club next door because my shoes were so tatty.
Back in '98 when I was at uni one of my mates was from Maidenhead had lots stories about the spice girls before they were famous. Most of which probably libellous now...

Working in hotel industry ive met loads of celebs.
Few car related ones....
David Coulthard stayed at my hotel once. Lived up to his stereotype by coming back to the hotel in the evening quite drunk chatting up a particularly fit barmaid i'd managed to recruit. He actually got off with her at the bar whilst she was working. I had to give her a talking to but tbh it was DC so I was let her off a bit.
Tif Needell was staying at another hotel I worked at. He was filming at Aston Martin factory down the road. Him and his crew got drunk in the bar and then he gatecrashed a wedding function we had going on. He was dancing with bridesmaids, bride etc etc. Proper sleaze tbh.

About 10 years ago I was on the kiddies Woody Woodpecker roller coaster in Universal Studios, Florida.
Michael Schumacher was sat in front of me with his son, timing the laps!
Was funny seeing him in the theme park later on, with 3 or 4 security guards.
The 'mericans didn't have a clue who he was.

How was I meant to know he'd come back from the bottle?

A couple of weeks ago I was 'making progress' on the Tomintoul road and the oncoming Range Rover pulled in to a passing place to let me by. The driver was the Queen. I waved: she didn't wave back.
I think we have a winner - unless someone has bumped into the pope?
