Gerry Adams, Hilary Clinton, Martin McGuinness, Bill Clinton, George Mitchell, Arlene Foster. All through work. I need to expand my horizons and meet some non politicians although the above were all polite and friendly especially McGuinness and George Mitchell. Arlene Foster admired and asked me where I got my bag-it got charity shopped immediately she has zero style god love her.

Can’t say I really met her, but I once went to get in to a lift at work and a huge bodyguard type physically stopped me (put his hand on my shoulder and pushed me!). I looked behind him and a small, pale woman wearing sunglasses was looking up sheepishly. It was Madonna. Apparently she doesn’t share lifts Hmm.
