Last night, on a flight from Glasgow to Heathrow, I sat behind and to the right of Jimmy Somerville of '80's pop bands Bronski Beat and The Communards.

a friend of mine used to work for Sky TV and once stood in the smoking shelter at work and had a chat with David Soul who was also smoking at the time.
A popular girl I used to go to primary school with (in Wokingham) went on to marry David Soul ! A good 30 year age difference between them. It's like Soul and I are soul mates ... maybe.My wife was at a work party in Manchester and decided to use another bar as the one her compnay were using was busy. She went and got a drink and got chattign to a bloke at the bar. When she went back to her friend's they were all excited and asking her what the man had said. Turns's out it was Christiano Ronaldo, my wife had no idea who he was.
The best bit of this story is not the tenuous links to famous person bit. Anyone who has met MrsHorneyMX5 will know she's a fothright and outspoken lass. She turned round to go back to the bar and ask him why, when he's so physically fit and well paid, he cries like a baby and falls over when touched by another man. Luckily for Ronaldo he'd managed to escape before my Mrs could get hold of him and unleash her ctitique of his manlyness.

- Hubby, I have had a few drinks and I am just going to talk to Cristano Ronaldo for a bit about his fitness, money and manliness. I may be some time. Don't wait up...

My dad shared a ski lift with Carol Thatcher on holiday in Switzerland as a kid.
I shared a chairlift with one of the Bell brothers , might have been the one that does ski Sunday , he was canny craic .I stood next to and ended up chatting to Mick Hucknall in The Paperla bar in Zermatt many moons ago , a different time , 7 years ago my wife ended up chatting to Frankie Dettori in Zermatt , then she bumped into him again and " got a kiss on the cheek" as she put it.
Turns out his best mate lived a couple of miles from where our lass was brought up.
A mate of mine was there with his wife and ended up sharing a table in a mountain restaurant with a couple where the woman had a familiar face , tuned out she was the dark haired singer from Abba.
I tripped over the lead singer of the Spudmonsters once. I also stood next to Steve 'Krusher' Joule watching Dog Eat Dog. Shared a lift (elevator) with Jo Whiley. Saw Jodie Marsh sitting in reception downstairs. Work in the same office as someone from the Antiques Roadshow. And my uncle lodged with Eddie the Eagle years ago in some ski resort or other. That's about it.
