MY MUM ! She was an extra on Corrie for more years than I care to remember.Through her, we got to meet a few of the old regulars and when it was her 80th recently, we got a few of the current regulars to sign a card for her. She also did a bit on Lovejoy, Crown Court, Doctors, etc etc... oh the best one was Newgate Gaol. We were allowed into the studios and walked right past her, not recognising her because of the good job done by the makeup crew.
She's a star !

Mostly DJs and MCs in the Hardcore scene. Famous to those that know them, total unknowns to those that dont.

I used to play pool against the fat caretaker in Grange Hill. This is going back some 15-20 years when I was a lad (8 to 12 years old ish). I used to beat him most times

I once saw the guy from the original Nescafe Gold Blend advert in a Barclays Bank in Plymouth (back in my navy days)

I was a bit pissed and asked him for some sugar - he told me to **** off!!!

Up until he made it big a good mate of mine was Jimi Mistry (The Guru, East is East) A nicer fella you couldn't wish to meet. Whenever I've seen him on TV being interviewed he doesn't seem to have changed. I always silently wish him my best. Sorry we lost contact but thats the way life is sometimes.
He was also a pretty mean DJ....

I urinated on the front lawn of the girl from the Beautiful Souths once, while singing "this could be rotterdam or anywhere Liverpool or Rome"... AND I know the lad who spawned her child...

Bernard Manning once told me I was 'forking class', which was nice.

I once shook hands with Sir Alex Ferguson and said "You're God" - he looked suprised and I've sat next to Steveeee Gerrard and Wayne Rooney at different football matches...

So I dont have any famous mates - but do hob *** with the famous in various ways
