who of note was a contemporary of yours at school or university?

[hatwoman]

I went to college with this man

Only me!

I just googled Emma Boughton ...
She presents the Drive Time Show on Heart FM ... she's done pretty well, good on her
[proud]lol

Hiya... been really busy. Got a couple of end of year assignments to do. Fortunately I don't have any births till the end of Sept so I have plenty of time to study......... And yet strangely I find myself here! lol

Just winding down after Salsa... might go a watch some athletics. We won Gold and Silver in the Women's 400m. Christine Uhorogu (spelt wrong) got Gold and Nicola Saunders got Silver. Fantastic achievement. I love athletics!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I love athletics too (held the 100m record for U14 girls when I was at school )
I can't watch it though as DD is hogging the TV right now so I had to come on here instead

That's why children should go out to work! lol

Right...... off like a dirty shirt. Ooh email me again because my PC died and took my address book with it. This is my lovely new one

many of the people belonging to this busted cocaine suggling ring were a year above me at school - can you see where I'm coming from when I laugh at people who think problems like drugs and violence are restricted to your local comp?

a few years above me, even...

My 6th form drama teacher went on to become the Paris correspondent for CNN.

Strange career change.

I went to school with an Aussie TV reporter of whom most of you would never have heard, but more importantly, I went to school with heaps of girls who went on to be doctors, lawyers, scientists, etc at the top of their fields...

Oh yes Fi Glover too I was at school with

And Anna Jones who reads the news on News24

Amanda De Cadenet

Rachel Weiss

errr

That's it as far as I know

I was quite good mates with this woman when I was a teenager.

My flatmate's boyfriend was the flatmate of this bloke

And this bloke lived round the corner from my eldest sister for many years.

I was at the same Cambridge college,in the same year, studying the same subject as Clare Balding - she moved in v different circles to me though! And I was taught by Germaine Greer!

Geri Halliwell went to my school![hmmm]

I also knew Claudia Fitzherbert and Lucasta Miller at Oxford (both are lit crit types now).

libby68 - tell us how old Geri REALLY is - and what O-Levels she got...

The Spice Girls are no idiots but they do lie about their ages!

Aloha posted about Geri's age recently - in response to a bitchy allegation from me that she wasn't really 33. Seems she for one was telling teh truth!

I was in the same class as the girl who was in Elton Johns 'Nikita' video, God she as a bitch!

Ds went to school with Duncan James from Blue and Pete Doherty, Duncan also played in the pub I was landlady of.

I was in the same year at school as Stephen Hughes, who played for Arsenal once.

sarah cawood

Hugo speer (the guy with the big dick in The Full Monty) sadly i can't prove one way or the other

and the guy who plays the grown up Billy Elliot in the movie - can't remember his name, but he leaps ontot he stage in Swan Lake

Coldplay were at my uni at the same time as me but don't think they spent as much time in the bars as me or, statistically speaking, I would have shagged at least one of them. Dullards.
I did spend a night with half of Menswear in a house owned by Shakin Stevens though.

Apparently Barry Scott off the Cillit Bang adverts went to my school but I can't remember him, thank God

no one
but malfoy(Hp) went to my school ans someone from pink floyde
and Jordan went to ds's and Ian drury went to dd's

oh and H.G Wells went to dh's (not when he was there)

I went to primary school with actress Daniela Nardini.Her family are infamous on the west coast of Scotland for producing THE best ice cream...
