Everyone has a claim to fame - no matter how small or big, so whats yours? Mine is that I lived opposite Rod Stewarts sister when I was grwoing up (my parents still live there) and Rod used to park his car in our drive when he came to see her. Anyone else got any claims??

My dad used to be 'Bernie the Bolt' on the tv show in the 70's with Bob Monkhouse. He also worked on Crossroads and a pop show called 'thank your lucky stars' where he met just about anyone who was anyone back in the 60's - he's met the Rolling Stones and had lunch with the Beatles. Sadly it was all before my time so I haven't met anyone really famous!
I have slept in the same bed as Neil Kinnock (not at the same time I must add) when he was MP for Islwyn, South Wales. I worked at the hotel where he stayed when he came to his constituancy to hold his monthly MP's surgery.
I've had a meal not five feet from Paul Burrell (& his extended family), I met the Queen & Prince Charles at the opening of the Welsh Assembly, I stared at the massive norks of a motorsport pinup that had a bit part in the second Harry Potter movie whilst she skinned up for me and my mates, A girl I was at school with is (comedian) Phil Green's niece, I've won the first prize in a Blue Peter competition, I caught one of Stuart Cable's drumsticks at a Stereophonics gig, I've served a local radio female presenter (Becky Wicks - MFM) on the bar in the pub I used to work at, I've spoken to numerous Hollyoaks cast people in-between filming, My mate's dad is mates with Joe Pasquale, My brother had his arm signed by Fred Durst at Lim Bizkit's first ever UK gig, Michael Owen signed the back of my B&H pack whilst putting furniture in the back of his Range Rover, A girl I know used to go out with Danny Murphy, My mate got off with Michael Owen's sister at a party, My mate's nan is Ian Rush's Godmother. Some of these are quite tenuous, but you get the drift. ;-)
I've seen Duncan Goodhew naked and I can assure you he's bald all over
I walked past Prince Charles at Polo yesterday and he raised his left eyebrow at me. That makes me special.....try and raise your left eyebrow.....it is mightly difficult
Sid Vicious asked me for directions to the hotel bar, Jersey, late 70's. I did so knowing the bar would be closed as it was mid morning, his cries of ****! and S***! echoed round this plush establishment soon after.
~I met Johnny Depp in an airport just after he shot the movie, Don Juan DeMarco, and I talked to him for about 45 minutes before our plane took off. We we're on the same plane, but he was in the middle and I was in the front. ~ I met Daniel Radcliffe (aka Harry Potter) at a rock festival and a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert. I also met him in a cafe. ~I ran into Elijah Wood at a theme park in Florida, Busch Gardens. Although it was right before he went to shoot Lord of the Rings.
I am a descendant from Henry VIII (yes I know he wasn't pleasant but still!) I met Richard Branson at his party and my great great great great uncle was Sir Joseph Paxton.(The one who built the Crystal Palace.)
I met Iron Maiden on an internal flight in Brazil a couple of years back and got invited by the crew to spend time with them which I did at the hotel drinking etc then went to the gig in Rio.

Went to school with Brand New Heavies - well the 3 guys

Also something I cant mention with Noel Gallagher!
