    Did you meet all those 'celebrities' in Stockport? Jesus Christ.... I very much doubt it

    Ha, not quite in Stockport but close by. Surprisingly to most, the SK postcode has some of the most affluent areas away from the south such as Alderley Edge and Prestbury to name just two, which is where the north west footballers live along with countless other celebs. I work at my CEO's house and Sir Chris Hoy is his next door neighbour. My CEO supports charities such as help for heroes, the Princes Trust and Shooting Star Chase which is how I get to meet a lot of them at fund raising events. I forgot to include Ray Parlour, I met him at a fund raiser held at Macclesfield's ground on Thursday night.

    I'd love to meet Ant and Dec go up and ask for a picture with one of them and completely ignore the other one.

    My stepson was at the X-Factor on saturday and met Demot Oleary, he asked Dermot if he could have a photo with him, the reply was 'no, I dont do photos'.
    My stepson reckons he is a grade A twat.

    When I started sixth form and decided to get a part-time job. I ended up working evenings in Catford alongside a few kids from my school, Colfes and Prendergast Girls. Amongst the Colfes boys was a 16-year-old kid, trying to earn some dough to buy equipment to start up a band, in the style of Sham 69. We got on well, had a few laughs, talked about football - his team was West Ham, despite coming from Lewisham. His name was Micky Fitzsimmons or Micky Fitz for short, and after leaving school went into the music business alongside his mate Lol Pryor, who managed his band called the Business, one of the pioneers of Oi Music. MIcky and his band went from strength to strength and we're still going well up until recently. Micky Fitz sadly died last week after a long illness, at the age of 57.

    It's sad when a contemporary dies, and although I hadn't seen him for a number of years. I occasionally bumped into him in the Charing Cross area. Micky was Proper West Ham. I'm not into that particular style of music, but found myself watching a few videos on You Tube this weekend. I think Micky counts as famous. Oi, Oi.

    That's sad news, I saw The Business three or four times, always a good gig.

    Well it can be many things, it can be people who want to start an internet argument.
    It can be people on the internet who because of their own insecurities, will always look to pull apart other peoples posts and grammar.
    It can also be Dermot OLeary.

    I have no doubt that one of the above will be along soon. But I don't suppose Dermot posts on here much these days.

    Well, it's the best I can do on a night flight, @ForeverAddickted. Who is she then?image

    It's taken a week, but I think I've cracked it..
    Is it the actress from Spooks who played Ruth - Nicola Walker.

    It's the head / hand thing that gives it away.. ;)

    Great stealth photography @Phantom User ! What is she doing in that picture? Looks like she's just seen you taking a photo and is about to make a lunge towards you.

    Always though she looked well haggard in Spooks.

    I think I messed up the quote thing, so just nicked his photo for my post :)
