Obscure claims to fame Page 7
I met the drummer from Arctic Monkeys and Noel Fielding in a bar in London. Can't rember any of it cos i was wasted 
Actaully when i say met I think i probably just shouted at them 
Ooh, did anyone see Karl from Neighbours at their uni?
I was always jealous of that.
I also met Paul Daniels (the magician who used to be on't telly before they decided he was crap) at a Business Exhibition - very intelligent bloke and a nice guy to chat to - when there was no camera about anyway.

But it's still Lord of the Rings.
Quote: Stylo @ January 28, 2008, 12:01 AMMy daughter went to see their live show last year, and the audience was told that the Chuckles wouldn't be available to sign autographs after the show for 'health and safety reasons'.
A very wise move - writer's cramp can sometimes be fatal.
I met Noel Fielding!! And Julian Barrett!! And Rich Fulcher!! I got my photo taken with Julian, and my face looks so round in it that I could have filled in for Noel as the moon.

Poached guy is very tasty btw!
Quote: Stylo @ January 28, 2008, 12:01 AMDid you get their autographs Aaron? If so, did anything dangerous happen during/afterwards?
Yes I did, and I'm fairly sure that nothing unsafe took place.
I just posted something really thick, but hopefully no one saw it before I deleted it.

You were going to say you thought Bodger was the Badger? Do I get a prize if I'm right?

We're going to need a seperate "'Famous' people you have met" thread if this carries on.
You both get a prize. 
It is my dignity wrapped up in a pretty box.
Hahaha! Zooo!
