    I never get why Tom Hiddleston is SO popular among female fans. He's not exactly that handsome, is he? There are so many hotter actors in Britain... What's his attraction? Acting skills?...
    Can't believe he signed for Man U last season. Gotta be late 30's
  • Young Indian cricket superstar, Yashasvi Jaiswal, at our cricket club in Beckenham a few weeks ago.

    And me pal Sam lives in Schull - he’s had a photography exhibition but not really famous 
    Ooh Sam who?
    I love Schull 💚

    We met Tendulkar when in Jaipur. They’d shut the whole place down so he could go to a fort!
  • Dame Kelly Holmes and Sir Clive Woodward at corporate events where they were speakers hired by the company I worked for at the time.  About ten years ago so both were more "current" then than now.  Dame Kelly was an absolute star.  Down to earth.  Showed us her gongs and couldn't have been more approachable.  Not the most natural public speaker but her charm got her through.  Sir Clive was dull as ditchwater. 

    Sandy Lyle, Nick Faldo and Ian Woosnam when I was a young lad marshalling at the "Glasgow Classic" in 1983.  :Lyle was nice (still have the ball he gave me), Faldo was aloof and Woosie was unbelievably small.

    Had lunch with Jean Van de Velde a few years ago at the senior's PGA event at the London Club.  My mate and I had hospitality tickets so had access to the players lounge.  He was utterly charming and spent a lot of time with us.  It was a very hot day and he told us in beautifully French accented English that "it was so hot out there I wanted to jump in the water" to which my mate inexcusably said "well you've got a bit pf previous there mate". Jean took it very well.  
  • Sorry if mentioned before 
    Bob Monkhouse & his wife

  • My 1st job of the day today. Nigella Lawson 😍
  • Met Andy Gray, Peter Reid and George Best in Dover Street wine bar in the late 90’s. 

    Steve Finn at Brighton Races

    Craig McGillivray at Epsom races not long after he joined. His now wife’s patent had a horse which won.

    Re Hawes, what a shame. I loved her performances in Line of Duty and a few  other series and always think she's a great actress. But treating people in service business badly is quite a nasty thing in my opinion. Maybe she was having a bad day but...
    I think that was it. She was just having a bad day and she apologised another day. She is actually really nice.

    We had Sir Clive come to give a talk to our clients in our little office a few years ago.  I was very panicky because it was just me if anything went wrong.  It did, we couldn't get his presentation running... but as luck would have it, he had brought his own IT man with him and he took it all in his stride and didn't get agitated once.  He even went out of his way to tell my boss that it was me that had saved the day (when in reality I had been hiding under the table starting at cables shaking) and remembering my name.  I thought he was pretty cool.

  • Gaz Coombes from Supergrass, Nick Hornby and former Spanish President Mariano Rajoy. Separately and not at the same time though - they are not some kind of rock supergroup. 
  • Met Clive Mendonca at Fratton Park once...was starstruck!!

    Also met George Best at Fratton Park..had a picture with him but had to hold him up and he was smashed! I was 15 then.

    Met Sam Alladyce when he was managing Bolton after they beat Southampton. Asked him if he was close to signing Rivaldo (rumoured at the time) and he laughed and said "could you imagine Rivaldo wanting to live in Bolton"!

    Also met Kelly at a corporate event and can confirm that she drives a very loud blue porsche, but is absolutely lovely.

    How was he like? I read about Charlize Theron's feud with him on the set of Mad Max a couple of years ago and I've quite disliked him since. 
    He was perfectly polite/amiable but you could see he had that intense/takes his work too seriously kinda thing going on behind those puppy dog eyes
