What's your tenuous claim to fame?

[wafflycat]

No, I don't want to cover FFC in spag. bol, just Harrison Ford.

Who gives a stuff about his acting ability?

You, Madam are a libidinous strumpet.

 

[longers]

Sorry Mr L and a half. You'll have to stop there and start your own thread.

This one is for "tenuous" claims to fame only.

I used to work with a bloke who made a table for David Beckham.

Indeed, and my husband thoroughly approves! Which reminds me, he's been away all week, so I must go and give him some, ah, *attention*.
Bye folks!

Oooh, so much to compete with...

My Wife's best mate used to be married to ex-Man Utd player Sammy McIlroy.

I used to play poker at current Man Utd player Darren Fletcher's house, and he's not very good at No Limit Hold'em.

My 'hometown' (well, spent most of my life there) houses the place where Cliff Richard did his first gig, but before he changed his name (i.e. just plain old Harry Webb I think).

Sir Barnes Wallis (Bouncing Bomb fame) was born in my 'hometown'.

I once bumped (literally) into the chap who used to play Andy McDonald in Coronation Street, whilst visiting Eyam (the Plague Village of Derbyshire).

I'm sure there are a plethora more if I could be bothered to think about it.

My wife was walking our dog, who "fetched" the golf ball of my C.O. who just a few years earlier had told off/cautioned/sent off John Mackenro at Wimbledon.

I got my pic in the local free rag once (on the bike) and also had a ltr printed in the LIVERPOOL ECHO

Lord Haw Haw's Auntie used to live round the corner and when he visited her he drank in my local. Regrettably I just missed him ... by about 10 years.....

Mrs Hippo & I had dinner with Dayvo who has met Keith Oates.

My LBS back in Widnes is owned by John Geddes who won a cycling bronze in the '56 Olympics.

Field Marshall Montgomery spoke to me in Farnham Post Office.

John Geddes is the 'tight' arse bikeshop owner..what is it about shrewdness and money

I used to work with the guy who "discovered" Saxon and was their manager. So there.

 

[Dave5N]

I'd keep bloody quiet about that if I were you.

He should have left them alone.

The world could have well done without that soft rock pap.

The best thing that your ex-colleague could do now is make amends by killing them.

As reasonable and reasoned as ever, abbers!

Ooooh, I forgot. Apparently Richard Keys (is it Richard Keys? He does Sky Sports and is ex-breakfast telly) was in the same year as me at school.
