I do know Dennis Priestley, and once at Beuwaters in Gravesend took him to a double finish with his own world championship winning darts.......I missed
West Ham at home, they had taken the covered end, completely, our lot on east terrace. I arrived Just after kick off legged it up onto the covered end terrace, just as I think it was Paul went scored in the covered end goal. In the following 5 minutes I became a legend, as I leapt up with a mighty "YES" the first punch came in, I went forward and one of those big gaps appeared, and fans went tumbling down the terrace! From the east terrace came the " Hello, Hello, Charlton Aggro, Charlton Aggro ! The old bill waded in truncheons out , I was grabbed by both legs and both arms and carried out ! People all around going this geezers a fucking nutter ! In the Watermans after the game I was a hero, " on your own , you went in there on your own , fuck me have a beer !
Ok I didn't know that West Ham were in there, and no I wouldn't,t have gone up there had I known. But, I put the fucking wind up them and became a legend. The bloke who steamed 3,000 West Ham on his own .
Sinah Warren Pool Champion 1982 (last week of August)
Hold two swimming records at Crown Woods School - they never had another gala since, but they were pretty good times. Swam in same gala's as Duncan Goodhew.
Played cricket against Vanburn Holder - proper game not charity/benifit etc
Famous: Was literally painted (had paint applied to me), by the Artist Boo Ritson for her series 'Hotdogs and Heroes'. The photos that were taken were produced in to fine art prints and I now hang in the private collection owned by Charles Saatchi.
Infamous: I once shut the Boots store in Cowes on the Isle of White after hanging on to the outside of the escalator handrail and getting pulled all the way up it. My feet took out a huge cosmetics display before I fell off and crashed in to another shelving unit sending the stuff flying everwhere. The whole shop came to a standstill and just stared. My parents never spoke about it afterwards. I was 7 at the time.

Absolutley brilliant. Brought tears of laughter to my eyes!
My dad's godfather was undisputed world professional heavyweight boxing champion and held a number of world records including biggest/heaviest world champ. I myself have achieved fuck all. I've not even sparked out an unsuspecting 80s comedian under my own steam.
I was interviewed by Joseph "Reds" Perreira on local radio in Port of Spain the day England were blowled out for 46.
I won £306 on Graham Dean's Minute to Win It on Capital Radio 194 in 1984, it made the Eltham Times.
Been on Popmaster on Radio2, lost.
Got cut off by Alan Green in a phone during Euro 2012 after slagging him off for being anti-English. "Why do the BBc use you? You're not even English. What's all that about?" He lost it!
Got my name mentioned a few times on air at talksport when I worked there, spoke briefly on air too. Quite a few bylines out there mainly on the net but wrote an article for the Valley Review also in our first League 1 season.
I did at one time work with Mary Quant, running her cosmetic brand. Hired Joe Bugner to join us on a trip down the Thames. Judged Miss Scottish Daily Express. As a kid I won the Elecution and Sight reading at the Southend Music and Drama Festival, judged by Jon Pertwee's Brother. STOP, I'm beginning to sound like Ackworth !
Interviewed by Sky sports at the Chelsea Charlton game that followed Scott Parker's departure, Made it absolutely clear that it was the sum of the parts that made us a top 4 four team and whilst his departure was disrespectful, especially as he had assured Ms Lat at the Gillingham cup game in the crowd that he would not be leaving, no footballer is bigger than the club and its fans.....famous last words! Seen by many in Northamptonshire though, was stopped in Sainsburys.
Feinted at your play-off final twice in extra time... ...and feinted in the Wrong Un at Bexleyheath and knocked myself unconscious and was stretchered out into an Ambulance... ...and feinted in hospital when I went with our Sunday football team to visit one of our players...and ended up laying in his bed!
won a mug from the 80's radio show "you aint heard nothing yet" (Yahny for short) for guessing 5 beatles songs from their intro's in 10 secs..............
no idea what happened to the mug - lost during a house move I expect.
