jambo1961 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 When I worked in the sample room 2 guys came into the bar. They seen someone at the end of the bar and started hassling gimme saying "you're Tommy Sheridan, aren't you". The guy kept denying it and was clearly getting pissed off. Now, I had no clue who Tommy Sheridan was at the time. I told the guys to leave him alone, they argued with me, so they were told to leave the bar straight away. Straight after that the guy seen me sitting down for my break and bought me a pint. He said thanks for sorting that out and yes he was actually Tommy Sheridan. What a know, maybe this explains my hatred for socialism. Working in a bar and hating Socialism, was it just pin money for you ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowmans_Boot Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I met Kenny Miller through something I was doing for work a few years back and he was quiet and pretty unfriendly. Years ago I walked past Joanna Taylor (Hollyoaks) in London, thought I recognised her and so smiled and said hi and she replied similarly - obviously used to this!

GlasgoJambo Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 Funnily enough, I saw Bill Bailey at Schipol, nodded etc, then saw him a few years later in the Crown Bar, Belfast. Wee nod, go about your business. Bill Bailey witnessed me buying a cucumber in a kebab shop about 15 years ago and said it was the best thing he'd seen all festival.

Irufushi Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Walking alongside a woman on Princes Street a few years ago, around Christmas time, knew I recognised her, it bugged me for ages until I eventually realised it was the woman from channel 4 racing.

scott herbertson Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 had a blether with Ken Buchanan in the pub last night I was at Porty and Ken Buchanan was invited by the Head to do the prize giving in (think he had just recently lost to Duran which would make it 1972 but possibly earlier, but he must have been somewhere on the Head's 'ex pupils celebrity list' . The Head clearly hadn't done his homework. There was about 500 of us (it was a huge school year, 2,300 in total in the school) plus parents crammed into the hall. Buchanan got up to a respectable ripple of applause. His first words were "I don't know why they invited me here to do this cos I got expelled for fighting when I wiz 15" - cue mayhem from the kids and much squirming and tut tutting from the parents and teachers,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott herbertson Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I could have become famous or at least notorious for an incident in 1980 when I was working in Bromley Leisure and Libraries department. I was coming back into the underground car park late (about 9 or 10pm) after a council meeting. The car park operated on a barrier which just popped up with a sensor as you approached. I was used to timing it so the bar just skimmed over my car as I drove through without stopping. The building also housed the Churchill theatre and they had a few reserved places in the car park. As I drove through I came within inches of running over the foot of a guy who came round the side of the barrier. He was very nifty in jumping away from me , and wave his fist at me as i sped past. I looked up in my mirror to see it was Lionel Blair....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
