    Your 15 minutes (or more) of fame

    Not done anything note worthy personally.

    I did do a photo shoot with an ex-girlfriend of Clooney.

    I have met / treated Prince and Keith Richard.
    I had to stick a famous actors teeth back in in the interval of a play in a west end theatre .
    The best famous person story I have - I was chatting with a lawyer friend had only known him a few months at the time when he started talking about his mum ..... Magenta !

    Cool but embarrassing mum to have apparently

    Initially, i thought you were taking the proverbial but hey, i took my life in my hands and found out this really is a thing! Props to you matey, it sounds stunningly surreal. If i was anywhere near Gemma Arterton and Sienna Miller i don't think i would have been responsible for my actions!

    Cool

    I've had back pain progressing through various treatments until had a surgical cure.Back problems are idiosyncratic,so what works for you.I have nothing to add other than a watch treat clearly justified.

    Hmm, i took one of the iconic photos of the london riots that graced the front pages of most of the national newspapers...

    This led to a BBC interview and news piece.

    Every so often i get a paper/tv channel asking for my permission to print!

    Apart from that i won a sun-flower growing competition when i was 6. Page 32 of the local surrey newspaper

    I worked (and drank) all over Soho during most of the 90's and 00's and drank next to/bumped into a huge number of 'celebs' in that time. The most memorable was having a drink with a (very young) Helena Bonham Carter after a film premier, but I was too young/overwhelmed to make a move 😐 - then over the course of about a month I literally bumped into Geri Halliwell (at the height of the Spice Girls) coming out of a pub/Club/coffee shop around 5 times, to the point she jokingly asked if I was a stalker (it was clearly just a coincidence) and we ended up sharing a bottle of wine whilst her 'people' organised a Taxi or something. She was very pleasant to talk to, wearing a very low cut top and I got a lot of flirty giggles and fluttering eyelashes from her. She was also clearly a bit nuts, but it was nice to have a genuine cosy chat with someone enjoying a brief burst of proper fame. The fact a couple of my mates witnessed me casually 'chatting up a spice girl' for nearly an hour gained me an ill-deserved reputation as a 'player' for quite some time 😋
