A few years ago OK many years ago I was in a Security Team that was hired to guard the contents within the largest Tent in Europe. It held all the Major Companies of Britain's top brands and products, this was to celebrate the Queens Silver Jubilee. It was held in Hyde Park, London. After my shift had finished I went for my usual morning run of about 5/6 miles . I found that I was closing in on a group of runners, although only one looked like he had any fitness.
As I passed them one of the guys asked if I new where I was and did I now this place, I replied I did and could I help.
He wanted to find the Dorchester Hotel in Park Lane so I told him to get across to the other side of the Park and turn left down Potten Row that will lead you onto Park Lane the hotel being just across the road, still not sure of this imfo he asks me if I could lead his team there, looking at these guys I thought I could do them a favour as they all looked knacked. I led of at my normal pace only to be asked fairly soon if I could drop the pace a bit as this guy was wearing "leaded" shoes and the other lot throwing up along the way
The one condition I agreed to do this was to get this guys autograph when we arrived at the Dorchester for I did immedietly realise who this guy was, much to my surprise. The out rider's that were running with him were his BG boys(bodyguards) When we finally arrived at the hotel sure enough he got pen and paper and gave me his autograph and I was chuffed as a chuffer's chuffer. it was Mohamed Ali
Other events have been two entries into the Guiness Book of Records. 4D
