Have you ever met a (semi) famous person in a bar?

My best friends girlfriend used to play Tracy Barlow. Lovely girl.
I see Bill Tarby (Jack Duckworth) regularly - he lives round the corner.
Other Corrie cast members you see around now and again. Helps that I live in the right area.

Donald Pleasence at a pub many years ago near Maidenhead

(also Susan George, but it wasn't in a pub so it doesn't count but I'd thought I'd do a bit of name dropping)

But a crap actor it has to be said - best bit's driving the cars!

Stood next to Becks in the tunnel at Old Trafford three years ago ...

A couple of years ago I found myself sitting next to a certain "Sven" on the plane. He seemed a really nice bloke, although we didn't talk about football (or Nancy!) My daughter was gutted that I didn't get his autograph!

A few years ago I had a few pints in the Pleasance Theatre bar with Al Murray and he was doing some shows (an ex worked for Avalon).

Been out a few times with Jimmy Gulzar who's my mate's client.

Best of all an old colleague is close mates with Cat Dealey, been out on the smash with her a few times

My old man has just done the schematics for John Salakos' new house(s).

Have met Robbie Williams and Kate Moss on the same night in Marbella, but they're not really semi-famous?
