When Radiohead (voted best album in the world EVER...best band etc...) where first starting out, being local boys, they performed at my 18th birthday party in an old barn!

Now, several years later, they have returned to the village and have bought a house a hundred yards away. When they moved in they had an open house BBQ...and are now often seen out and about in the area.

You lucky barstuid. One of my favourite groups. Get us an autograph.

My claim to fame is that my christening was announced by John Lennon as my father was at the Casino where they playing. Hey, beat that!!!

Secondly, I have ridden Red Rum on the beach and thirdly, whilst on tour in N. Ireland I told John Paisley to shut his annoying gob (I've censored that myself) when he was in my APV, AND HE DID:smug:

Oh, and I once did a 12 second f5rt in 4 different tones that even made the dog leave the room:smug:

I got asked for my autograph when I was 7 years old performing at the Aldborough festival.
I stayed at a hotel in Barbados with Paul Weller and his family in the early nineties. Our daughters are about the same age, they got playing and we had dinner with them a couple of times.
Just blown a TV documentary for Discovery H&L on using architects - a 'grand designs' sort of thing. We did the first few shoots, the architect was so far up his own **** I got rid and the company didn't want to do the program anymore - funny that. Was due out march next year so it will be intersting if they show a bit about why not to use west end architects that are not in touch with the real world.

I chatted up Rachel Hunter (Rod Stewarts ex) at an Oasis gig in Wembley Stadium after busting into the VIP section following a dare from my mates..

It went something like..

"Hello..its Rachel isnt it..?"

"Yes, thats right, whats your name..?"

"Erm....Nat..are you enjoying the show?"

I think it must have been a good 30 seconds after that when I shat myself and turned into a jibbering wreck...

That does constitute a chatting up doesnt it..??

:rolleye::rolleye::lol:

I once gave Glyn some instruction:lol:

Also signed Paul Smart onto a trackday once and asked him if he'd done much track riding before;)

Had a discussion with Toseland about CB5 racing he and I did/do and got him to sign a photo of me on my CB5 at Donny, he was convinced it was him,(yeh really he was) and argued with me that it wasn't Donny!

Knocked Paul Daniels to the ground once whilst I was out running in central london, he wasn't looking where he was going, you'd think he would have known I was there!

Played rugby against the full England side, scored a try against them that was disallowed, still hurts to think of it, bar steward linesman, can still see the look on Steve Smiths face as I knocked the ball out of his hands at the back of the scrum, stole it, handed him off and ran in a 'try' from 30m.
