Fairly well known member from Malvern
Me and 'er indoors have just got back in from a short trip to Pershore, where we nipped into our favourite coffee shop (privately owned), and straight away, recognised Toyah Wilcox and her husband Robert Fripp. The only table free was right next to theirs so we sat down and ordered coffee. I'd been told previously that she frequented this coffee shop (as do a lot of 'celebs - lots of photos on the wall), as she just lives locally, but I didn't want to intrude as this was their private life and felt they should be left alone. However, Toyah took a liking to my little Chihuahua and was making a fuss of him, asking questions about him etc. I couldn't help but notice how bloody young she still looked and what a fabulous body she still has!
Anyone else had a nice chance meeting like this?

Id love to talk to Morgan Freeman. Literally about anything. That man has the greatest voice.

Maybe get him to say something about his step granddaughter!

Hmmmm, not sure unproven allegations from the defence lawyer of the guy who killed her based solely on a text about having problems with an older guy are worth that much TBH.

did they all get their Chihuahuas out?
Are Chihuahuas the 2020 forum version of the Owl? So hard to keep up round here.

Met loads with work, mainly people in bands most people wouldn't have heard of unless they are into that particular genre.

Of the better known people had lunch with Victoria Beckham at the Virgin Records offices, fireworks night on a beach somewhere with Lily Allen and drove Julian Cope around for a couple of days who is absolutely batshit crazy. Have met various members of Madness as a mate of mine has filled in with them a few times (one of them lives in Australia now so doesn't come back for one off gigs and TV shows, funnily enough met him while on tour over there).

Get loads of celebs around with my current job but we're supposed to remain professional. Had Madders flying out with the England squad and had a chat with him about his time with us - all very complimentary.

Played poker with some celebs and also some famous poker players but I guess not much point listing them here as I doubt anyone would be impressed lol. Knocked some out of tournaments too which is always nice.

For Muhammad Ali opening a diy store back in 83 count? He said hello.....

Vinny Jones at the races in a box, he was a really nice guy.
Lunch with Alan Brazil and Ray Parlour, they do it 2-3 times a week after the show, won it in a raffle, they both drank about 3 bottles of red each and head off to bed about 7 ahead of the show, great conversations about the game and his complete lack of any medical before he signed for us.

possibly the best was with Abbey Clancy, shared a table on the train back from London and she wanted to chat, I’m not sure what she said for most of the journey, probably kept telling me to close my mouth and stop drooling. Seriously, she was amazingly down to earth and with no make up on, the most stunning person I have seen close up, it was just after her first child.

A very very drunk Nick Knowles at twickenham after an England game, I was also very drunk. I thought he’d be taller. Nice guy though, we chatted for about half an hour.

Geoff Miller, an old cricketer. Not into cricket and had never heard of him at the time. Spent a few hours in his company and a really really funny guy with lots of stories.

Met a couple of others of note, Bobby Charlton and Frank Worthington. Not to have a conversation with though, just a polite hello and hand shake.

Oh forgot one. I met the voice of Johnny Bravo and Scooby Do when he came into a school I taught at. Lovely guy, even offered to do free voice work for a game my students were working on.

Also walked past Davina McCall at a Reading in 1999 and said a little too loudly to a mate “she’s not as fit in real life is she?”
