Alex Ferguson thinks that he is exempt from waiting his turn in queues at airports.
Perhaps he was caught short...http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/465718.stm

I spent a lot of hours at his house around 2000. I never met him though, it always seemed like he was leaving when I arrived and arriving when I left. He was very decent to my colleague even offering him a beer at 10AM on a Saturday. Many years ago I was on a train about to head out of London to Sheffield, I was sat by myself at a table seat. Shortly before departure two women with two small children got on and headed towards my table. One of the women gave me the will you give up your seat so we can all sit together look, I ignored this as I had booked the table seat as I was working on my laptop. So I ended up with what turned out to be the mother and the two children sitting with me around the table, the nanny (I think) had to sit a few seats away. A while into the journey one of the children started chatting to me, I was polite but didn’t engage in full conversation as I was busy. After a while she announced out of the blue “my daddy is Jeremy Beadle” her mother jumped in at that point and told her “we don’t tell people that”.
A few years later I happened to see a tv show where Jeremy had his kids with him, it was the same two I had sat with.

Rumors are he's got a small penis, but on the other hand it's bloody massive.A few years later I happened to see a tv show where Jeremy had his kids with him, it was the same two I had sat with.
I saw Anne-Marie Duff in the park opposite our house at the weekend. Thought she was really good in His Dark Materials. Her ex was in our chemist a little while back too. Short bloke.
Katherine Ryan used to live opposite us until she bought a house with her husband. She looks very different off the telly...

Another memory. Sponsored by my accountants KPMG to play in a pro-am at Woburn. Got drawn with a young proette. We all, including the proette, played off the yellows that day, and when it was my turn I drove straight down the middle. She then drove down the middle too. I walked past the first ball to the one 20 yds further and got called back. She had outdriven me. I didn't really know her name but I was well aware who I had played with a year later. A young Anita Sorenstam. Such a lovely person.
I hate to be that interwebs pedant but as she's one of the best ever to have tee'd it up, I thought Annika deserved a correction... Laurel Green said:
