chiang mai Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I went to school with Patrick Stewart (Captain Kirk) but was in the class one year ahead of him. His grandfather was the janitor at the school, lovely lovely man, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ijustwannateach Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 ^One of our former gay subforum mods, the late Chris Perry, was a colleague of Patrick Stewart's (he was Captain Picard, not Captain Kirk incidentally) in the Royal Shakespeare Company.

sceadugenga Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 (edited) once made the headlines of the "Saturday Advertiser" for rescuing a child who was being attacked by a viscious stingray Not impressed bronco, if it had been truly heroic you would have made the Sunday Mail. My first wife was a Purcell and therefore related to the Tudors, including the abbreviated Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth the First. The sceadugengen of course are fantastical beasts closely related to the Jabberwock, my beamish boys. (And girls). We emphatically deny any connection with the frumious Bandersnatch though.

raslin Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Once had a chat with Richard Dimbleby while we watched a Salvation Army parade. 50 years ago so I suppose he's died now, so we'll soon be able to have another chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryHacker Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 One of my buddies tried to kill Bob Dylan....he idolized him, met him in a bar, and after asking politely if he might shake the hand of his lifelong idol......got a response of..(insert annoyed nasal voice)....."Who the fukc are you ?"He snapped. My peace loving hippie friend snapped. My non-violent vegetarian friend grabbed Bob Dylan's throat and started squeezing the life out of him. It took five guys to get him off. I still say "Who the fukc are you?" every time I see him. Must have inspired The Who's "Who Are You" song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiksilva Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I had my first pint with Ian Botham and Len Bond (the awesomely famous goal keeper for Exeter City...) who both used to drink in my uncle's pub in Somerset. But perhaps the one that will remain with me till I die is when I met Sandra Bullock at the Red Lion pub in Mayfair. She was promoting Speed 2 back in 1997. I had just had my interview for the job that brought me to Thailand. She had been jogging and was wearing black cycling shorts. She was standing in front of me ordering a Cornish pasty for lunch. She turned around and smiled, I smiled back, her minders and co-star looked menacingly at me. We sat down and ate lunch, at our respective tables and never spoke, we didn't need to. Well at least that's how I like to remember it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Madness live last Friday night at the Newmarket Races. I was working in the VIP boxes right across the stage. Got all the staff out dancing in the mud - Madness style! - as they played all their famous tunes for an hour or so. Loads-o-fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwertz Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 P.S. I was a translator for Angela Merkel till she got promoted. Does this count? ######, that's quite cool! Angela Merkel is not only smart, she also has sharp eyes to spot a talent person like you 'Qwertz'. Not only you know several languages, you also very intelligent. Your threads always make sense to me. Why, thank you T, you make a lot of sense too. I translated her letters to Rudi Giuliani and Hilary Clinton too and one to GW Bush, but he never answered.

So I had witnessed all the things that Rudy had done tremendous to this great city. I had decided to vote for him since the day one when he enters the presidential race. Americans need the strong leader who doesn't sway easily by the critics. Here is a man who truely loves his country. Don't worry about not getting her xmas card. How about coming for a traditional turkey dinner on xmas eve at our house? This is a real invitation from your forum buddy in Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
