I seem to bump into lots of celebs in toilets: I specialise in Welsh rugby players. I've met Barry John, JPR Williams and Scott Quinnell in various Welsh bogs. As Barry John was my boyhood hero I was in a bit of a state standing next to the great man but he was willing to stand in the bogs at Stradey Park for a quick chat.

I also stood in the next urinal to a very pissed Jimmy Case on the day he scored the winner against Norwich in the cup QF.

Other toilet encounters include Ronnie Corbett and David Suchet.

I'm sure this has come up before but I've also shared a sauna with Bjork and a table at an Indian veggie restaurant with Annie Lennox.

I've also stood at the bar next to the very odd couple of Ross Kemp and David Mellor - but sadly not together as that would be very odd.

Teddy Sherringham and Danielle Lloyd at Woodside Road, watching Brighton v Palace reserves a few years ago.

Teddys son Charlie was Palaces centre forward and was complete shite !!

Never realised that Teddy was a bit of a short arse either

Sir Trevor McDonald was in the queue behind me for Mr Bean the movie at the 'flea pit' in Bognor.

Apart from that, I have no exciting celebrity rendezvous to tell of.

John Deacon from Queen at Biarritz airport, waiting for a Ryanair plane to Stansted. Chris Coleman & Lee Clark were on the same plane. I have never felt so blessed since.

Bit tight of them to go by Ryanair, though, come to think of it.

Stood behind Peter O'Toole in WH Smiths on Brighton station as he was trying to explain to the idiot behind the counter what non-filter tip cigarettes were. On a similar note I was standing behind Nick Cave in Bagelman on Church Road the other week.

Hmm, just thought of someone else. PC Nick Klein who used to be in The Bill. He`s a Spurs fan and I sat next to him at the Lane against Watford 2 years ago when Robbo scored from 85 yards! :laugh:.

Also, I sat the row behind him at Wembley for the Carling Cup final..He was wearing glasses, and had Bentley on the back of his shirt ( :eek: )

Oasis in the Our Price shop in Dorking
Pearl Jam celebrating eddie Vedders birthday in the Seven Stars pub just outside Dorking.

There is a recording studio near there called FarmHouse or something.

Ridge Farm studios at Capel. Oasis recorded an album there.

The free state of Kemp Town
I met Christopher Robin (of Winnie-the-Pooh fame) in Ashdown Forest talking about the rare flora and fauna of the heathland.

I also had a piss next to mildly famous comedian Robin Ince (Ricky Gervais' abused comic mate) in the Edinburgh Underbelly.

And I received a blown kiss from the beautiful Natalie Imbruglia (who at the time was still in Neighbours) from inside a cage in a disused church in east London on the set of excellent 90's computer game show Gamesmaster.

Hmm, maybe I should have started with that one

the bloke who plays Les Battersby in the chippy near the house I owned in Conwy, he passed me a chip fork. He used to have a holiday home up there, and saw him regularly in some of the pubs playing pool, often wearing a rather nasty Man City shell suit. Never seemed to milk his "celeb" status
