Seagazer Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 For any of you who remember 'Brookside' I served Ron Dixon in a shop I worked in in chester when the soap was in its heyday and he was obnoxious. Proper 'dont you know who I am'. Because he wasnt very nice, non of us said we knew who he was and I think that annoyed him greatly I used to watch Brookside - but I had to google him to remember who he was - karma perhaps?

missuscluck Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Yup! Im sure he would be greatly chuffed that no one remembers him, even avid brookside watchers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I posted one yesterday about my son's school but he saw it and asked me to remove it. I will tailor it now to keep him happy. When my son started at his new school, they had a coffee morning for the parents of all new pupils. My hubby was getting a bit twitchy, saying that he recognised one of the parents. I told him to shut up and behave (as you do) but he wouldn't let it go. On the way home, he was talking about this actor that he had recognised saying that he was in a recently released film (L o t R) and I told him not to be so silly. What would this actor be doing here? Etc. Our son then pipes up from the back seat, 'Oh yes it is ............. .......... His son is in the class above mine. Turns out that son had already had a huge conversation with the actor about the film, etc. I then tried to explain to son that this man was just another Dad at the school and wouldn't want to talk about things like films. The next week, our son went up to him and said, 'My Mum said etc. but you don't mind do you?' I gave up after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hen Watch Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Millions of years ago BC (before children and chickens) hubbie and I went on package holiday to a Greek Island and Julian Clary was at the airport too. This was a good 13/14 years ago but he's actually very handsome man close up (and tall too). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimmyCustard Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 MissusCluck reminded me of a friend of mine.............. He used to work at Heathrow and searched baggage when they came up on the X-ray machine if they looked as though they contained something 'dodgy'. One day a big Louis Vuitton bag went through the machine and it looked as though something odd was inside, so he pulled it off the machine and took it to the end of the table to meet the owner and search the bag. Owner and bag met at the table. Upon being asked to open the bag, owner promptly threw the mother of all strops, screeching 'Dont you know who I am, you pathetic man?!, I'll make sure youre sacked' etc etc. Friend, (who knew EXACTLY who the owner was) said 'Arent you that bird out of Bananarama?' Owner shouted: NO, I'M NOT - I'M NAOMI CAMPBELL!!' Still makes me laugh thinking about it...............

Redwing Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 I used to keep my horse behind Peter Gabriel's house and was used to seeing him and various singers around and to me it wasn't strange as thats how it was for years as we had a recording studio in the village but when I met my boyfriend he once had a long conversation with PG about petrol strimmers v's electric strimmers without even knowing who he was! I married him in the end (my then boyfriend not PG!) and we are still together 14 years on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
