I can see real stars where I live, right here right now! ...
Can't do that in Londinium eh?!

As for the 'famous', they can't feed their egos in the fresh air
- good riddance too!

Last August Bank holiday, I was in the Walsall Asda, behind me in the que was a bloke who was the spitting image of Rob Halford,
I was'nt sure if it was, I noticed he had a tattoo on the back of his neck that said 'Eternal',
so when I got back home I looked on the 'net and there it was, a pic of Rob with the same tatt on the back of his neck.
I now go shopping with a camera, just in case.

The search function does point to a thread entitled I just saw a famous person. I guess that Big Si was not around to find it for you.

I'm a Postie in Liverpool and was out delivering yesterday and had an item that needed signing for. I thought the woman looked very familiar and I had an inclination as to who she 'may' be but I had to use IMDB to confirm it when I got home - Turns out it t'was Tina Malone from Shameless i.e Minni Maguire ( the scouse wife of that stereotypical O'Irish hard man style gangster wannabe)

Oh and I once had the misfortune many many years ago of meeting Stan Boardman on my round, but that's not something I wish to brag about.

Now if Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kate Beckinsale,Megan Fox, Neve Campbell and The Jolie-Pitts could just move to Wavertree in Liverpool that would make my job that little bit sweeter from now on.

Many moons ago on route to a Rosetta Stone gig in that there Londinium Town whilst parked at traffic lights we saw Henry (Going for Gold*) Kelly in the car behind.

So we all smiled and waved and wouldn't you know it the genial Irish prankster waved right back - the coming together of two of the nations most popular entertainment franchises and hardly anyone there to witness it . Shame

* Going for Gold - a day time institution and one of the most ridiculous shows ever. a show created by an Australian using Europeans who could barely understand or speak English and an Irish host that NO ONE ( not even the Irish) could understand ! No idea what the star prize was but it was probably made of cut glass or wood.

You don't have Childwall Road as part of your round do you? If so, you do mrs fiend's mum's post...

No, but I have delivered there in the past. Our sorting office does do Childwall Road ! I deliver at the Wavertree clock end rather than the Five ways end .

Normally about a dozen times a day, which is how often I get the urge to check my reflection.

I once saw the actor who played the male ballroom dancer in Hi de hi once. But that was in 1987.

On a personal note I was once the author of the star letter in VIZ.

I do, of course, mean Thingwall Road. I'm a spaz...

Do you mean Picton Clock?

I saw Peanut & Simon from The Kaiser Chiefs, at the Leeds v Donny Rovers home game last month.

I know Thingwall Road in the Garden suburb. Yeah, the Picton Clock on the corner of Wavertree High Street and Childwall road ( by the Somerfield).

i always seem to see "liam" from coronation street hanging about piccadilly station too. i gather he lives (or did up until recently) not far from us

Justin Sullivan last night Also Rev Hammer, Simon Friend and Maddie Prior. Rock 'n' Roll!
Also went partying with a couple of midlandsy punks of ill-repute on Saturday. That was just silly though

I saw Cheggars at The Town & Country show when I was 15. Does that count?

Not unless Maggie Philben was with him?

I haven't actually seen anybody, but I did summerise the medical notes for one Andrew Taylor a few weeks back!

Sadly not. She'd probably left the old soak well before then.

I used to run into George Soros in the lift at my old office - on one soon-to-be-forgotten occassion a friend and I turned around as we got out at our floor and shouted "LOADSAMONEY!" in a suitable mockney voice. I don't think George understood, but we legged it down the hallway laughing like a couple of schoolkids.
