Paul Merson's cousin taught a friend of mine to drive.

My Dad knew someone who was friends with the drummer out of Sleeper and got me Louise Wener's autograph.

I saw David Essex at Heathrow Airport when I was about 4. It's one of my first memories. He was wearing a white suit.

I thought I saw the lead singer of The Enemy in a pub last night but it wasn't him.

I once caught Richie Richardson during a school game vs Lashings (plaything of rich man who gets loads of famous cricketers to play for him).

Keith Gillespie gave me his player of the year trophy and bought me copious amounts of what can only be described as 'Irish juice'. It tasted foul and made me fall over a bit later in the evening.

Craig Levein tried to 'release' me as a Leicester fan.

(This really is as good as it gets).

Erm - I have insured Paul McCartney's guitars...?

Paul Merson told me I had a large size head.

My grandma's second cousin is Sir David Frost.

My friend got started on by someone from Emmerdale in a club.

That's more like it, especially the middle one.

Jim, how could you forget our exploits on Soccer AM? Including using anal based chemical warfare to scare a bloke twice our size out of the security hut prior to the show!

Tony Blair keeps ringing me and asking if he's doing the right thing.

Gloria Estefan asked me to marry her.

I died when I was 6 and God told me it wasn't my time, so sent me back.

I have the world's largest Alligator in my back garden.

My daughter goes to school with the daughter of the nanny of the colonel who was 2nd in command to the man who found Chemical Ali.

That's it.

My Dad once played Willie Thorne at snooker and lost.

A friend of mine went out with Cesar off the last Big Brother.

I saw Ulrika Johnsson in Heathrow Airport.

My family name is the same as the the guy who brought down Barings Bank. No, I am not related.

Poor. Really quite poor.

Oh and my family are all from the Aberdare area, my cousin knew Kelly Jones growing up and was, I'm told, in the band "before they were famous".
