Hi Guys,
Met Jonny Smith (motoring journo, Fifth Gear presenter, etc) on Sunday at Santa Pod.
What a thoroughly bloody nice chap!
He was surrounded by people taking no notice of him and watching the racing, slightly incognito (bit scruffy, actually...)
You know me;:whistle: walked straight up to him and started chatting.
He talked about Drag Racing, Fifth Gear and the Shanghai Motor Show he had just returned from.
Top bloke, down to earth and not full of himself.
Which famous people have you met? cratch:
Glad you did?:thumbsup:
Or wished you hadn't? illyme:
Dish the dirt...!

A few years back I made Neil Morrissey (Tony from Men Behaving Badly) get out of my reserved seat in a train once. Didn't recognise him at all - I rarely watch TV. He found another seat opposite and despite a fan buying him a beer and him nattering on the phone about his pub/brewery I only twigged when my girlfriend told me after we got off :-)

Also actually, a friend is running for miss world, you may have heard on the news quite a bit recently because of the anger of the Muslim community towards her!
