Your most bizarre claim to fame story

[cheesenpickles]

So, I haven't slept with MH or anybody remotely famous, but have plenty of bizarre claim to fame stories (of my own and family/friends).

My two faves are that Florence Welch ran over my foot with her bicycle and broke my toe. I don't think she realised but she was gigging back in the day and had cycled to the venue (where I worked). She jumped on her bike to push it out of the office and ride home and went straight over my foot, snapping my toe on my left foot.

My darling sil, who is quite the character was in the company of some top music people, drank too much wine at an album party, started dancing and launched her shoe accidentally in her vigour smacking old Sir BG right in the chops apparently. She then repeated said move at my wedding and smashed a load of wine glasses. She's a good 20 years my senior.

C'mon now spill.

I went to university with Laurence Olivier's grandson. He was doing film studies.

Stubby Kaye told me he liked my hair.

My friends ex-boyfriend's Dad went out with Kirsty Macoll when they were at school. Tenuous!

I saw Dame Judi Dench in a shop once. I chose not to smile at her because I was eating a huge chocolate coated Brazil nut at the time and thought the overall effect could be concerning

I used to look after the children of a Britpop type band member
I accidentally trod on the paw of David Blunketts dog (I apologised to the dog)

Elsie Tanner came to my wedding! She was my FIL's cousin, they were both only children, virtually brought up together. The most treasured wedding photo for my two grandmas was a pic of them beaming proudly standing next to her!

I had to tell Kelly Osbourne she was in my seat at the theatre once.

DB's car was in a TV show. I forget which TV show, and don't remember what car it was, either...

Mark Owen kissed me on the cheek when I was 12.

I girl I went to school with became a model in her late teens, and her picture was in Vogue.

My dh fixed Peter Andres wife's phone.

Doug booth also went to my 6th form school. He left to star in a BBC role. He is now very famous. He was very kind at school. Hope he still is now

Oh and Cheryl bakers girls went to my chill a few years below. Their mum would make the odd appearance but not many people knew who she was....

My housemate at university shagged Tony Robinson's son. He was her boyfriend's housemate so really classy.

I once bought sausages from Liz Hurley.

My mum used to type out the scripts for 1980s tv. She did Emmerdale farm, Grange Hill etc. They sent her dictated tapes and she typed them on a type writer.

School not chill

Followed Mark Owen around the Corn Exchange in Leeds in the 90s. I wasn't even remotely a fan but my mate was. Mark had the tag hanging out the back of his shirt (£12.99 Top Man) and looked well smug.

Snorbitz walker is definitely the winner.

I know Matt Smith, who is actually a doctor.

I once queued behind Mary Berry in a supermarket. She was not buying a lemon drizzle! She looked immaculate and just as she does on TV. She is tiny!

I also chatted with a TV weather presenter in a market as she and I were buying the same handmade crafts.

I also swam with Duncan Goodhew when I was a child.

I've been to Jonathan Ross' house and used his downstairs loo - it was one of those fancy Japanese ones with all the different buttons but the sink tap didn't work!

My mum was friends with a one of the girls from pans people (dance and later singing group which frequented TOTP) when they were at school together.

I've met a few authors strangely they've all been American but I live in a touristy area I've even been sent signed books. I'm a big reader so I'm hoping one day an author will walk in whilst I'm reading they're book

I was at teacher training college in the 1970’s with the girl who married/ lived with
the late Ray Allen the ventriloquist.

Sean Connery delivered my late Mum's milk.

My brother is an actor in his spare time. He does local theatre so hasn’t hit the big time yet.
But when he wins the Oscar I’ll be sashaying down the red carpet with him.

And apparently as a young child in the early 1960’s our family shared a train compartment with the late Sir Malcolm Sargeant a famous conductor.

We nearly bought the house next door to a former prime minister already mentioned on this thread. We couldn't afford the work it needed to do it up though.

I got in a brawl with a 'celebrity' at a Robbie Williams concert and ended up in the Sun newspaper...
