I met Bernie Ecclestone in London.
I was asked to log in and read his emails to a racing driver we all know who couldn't access his email.My family was decent, down to earth, and perfectly normal until I was born. I've seen little evidence of our connections, but a number of generations back, we mingled with royalty, owned castles and money, sporting and intellectual achievements. Lots of sirs, barons, baronesses, lords and whatnot. I don't need or want the titles, but a small pile of coins would have been nice in place of the last three generations having had to work hard to make ends meet.
I've no memory for family history either. Who you are now is far more important to who your family once was, to me.
I've had a pee between Rowan Atkinson on one side and Stephen Fry on the other, Snetterton paddock urinals for anybody that's interested.
One of my best mates returned a pair of knickers to Nicole Scherzinger when she left them in the toilet of his plane, ( he's an airline pilot and went to the toilet after her on a transatlantic flight).

My late Grandmother was very friendly with the Mother of Paul Smith, the fashion bloke.
When on honeymoon last year, John Travolta was eating in the same restaurant as my Wife and I. He left when we did and we exchanged a few words - thoroughly nice chap.

i called will carling a tt for asking where the marmite was in m&s, this was when they still only sold their own stuff
at the same m&s a group of the stock lads stalked izzy from hollyoaks aka Elize du Toit round the lingerie dept and i stood and laughed at them.
and finally, i have been walked past by david ginola and gary barlow at different airports, (ginola was/is by far the better looking)
