As every Scottish music and movia fan knows, there is only one true superstar - Clare Grogan, and I've met her, TWICE!!

Once, at the height of her fame, I was clearing glasses in a pub in Mull, she was there, I looked, she smiled softly and purred "hello", I did that teenage mumble blush thing and ran off.

Second, in the Q for BA domestic check-in, going home for Xmas, she was there right in front of me. I remebered 1983 and said "hello", she said "You're the bar skivvy, my haven't you grown!"

OK so every thing from "I remembered 1983" onward is bollocks but never mind........

I was in a queue at the millenium dome with Terry Duckworths screen girlfriend (the blond girl who got pregnant). I couldn't help staring at her becuase I thought that I knew her from school or something. Until the woman next to me told me who she was.

BTW Christopher Biggins from Rent a Ghost beats all other duff celebs!

oh yer! Clare Grogan wrote "Phill 4 Clare True Love" in the lining of my old leather jacket after a gig in Portsmouth, (I've still got the jacket).

You're not referring to parts of your anatomy are you?

Nope, you have to beat Gary Wilmott, I think that's a Top Trumps Crap Celebrity winning card!!! Especially as he thought I should know who he was (was about 12 years ago now!!)

I nearly ran over the most famous physicist and mathematician of our time - Stephen Hawking! I was going down Mill Lane in Cambridge (for those of you who know it ) when he popped out of a little alley at the end, in his wheelchair, without looking. Slammed'n'swerved despite only doing about 15mph!

Can't bear the thought of having all the world's scientist nerds bearing down on me in the aftermath

Apart from that, Phil from Eastenders, Johnny Ball, Chris Tarrant, and the UEFA Cup and entire Spurs football team from 1981

Naf, you are so sad.

By the way Ireland (north & south) is up and running, support your local cause and all that.

This may sound poor but here is my selection.

December 2000 - Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer in hotel bar in Ealing (neither were funny, bit disappointing really, was in the lift with Bob)

Saw Michael Caine in a cab by Harrods

And the piece de resistance (sp)....

My Mum was run over in Mold town centre by Kevin Keegan in his Datsun thingy when he played for Liverpool.

I think we can close this thread now I have won!!!!
