Addicted to Minimins
Ohh I have met a few.

Back in the good old East 17 days:eek: me and my friend saw them in the van after the concert and they said give us a scream girls and like love sick puppies we did :eek:.

One day shopping in Manchester me and my friend bumped into Mark Owen and he stood with us chatting for a good few mins and we were besotted with him after that:D

I went to Manchester Uniteds training ground when Eric Cantona use to play for them. There was loads of people screaming him and he came to me :D first and gave me his autograph but then he borrowed my pen to sign everyone else's then came looking for me to give me my pen back and gave me a kiss on the cheek and said thanks cant you tell I was well chuffed.

I saw David Beckham in Mcdonalds in Manchester before he got with Victoria. He threw a paddy because some girls started screaming his name then he stormed out.

Oh and I saw Gail Platt from Coronation Street shopping in Manchester too.

Sad aren't I :eek:
 
Ooh, I've met

Princess Diana
(when she was engaged, and very shy and giggly). Needless to say, we didn't chat much...just a Hello, are you having a good time (giggle, giggle) :D

Cliff Richard: Cooked and ate dinner with him

Aker Bilk: (oldies might remember the Clarinet player). Played a clarinet duet with him at a pub where I worked. Then went back to his flat

James Galway: I stole his golden flute for ages before he noticed:cool:

The Strawbs: Anyone remember that group? They came to our house for tea when they were at their height with 'Part of the Union'
Now I'm a union man
Amazed at what I am
I say what I think, that the company stinks
Yes I'm a union man

When we meet in the local hall
I'll be voting with them all
With a hell of a shout, it's "Out brothers, out!"
And the rise of the factory's fall

Oh, you don't get me, I'm part of the union
You don't get me, I'm part of the union
You don't get me, I'm part of the union
Until the day I die
Until the day I die


Cool song :D

Matthew Kelly: But only bumped into his trolley as ASDA :D and we apologised to each other.

Some famous newsreader who I chatted with for a couple of hours. Didn't have a clue he was famous until we finished talking and DH told me :D Still can't remember who is was...but DH says that anyone with an ounce of intelligence would have known :D:eek:
 
I dated Frank Sinclair (Chelsea Football Club) in the 90's - when I was thin on course lol.
