I got Saracen's autograph when I went to see them at Wembley.

I can't remember which one it was I met, but there's a photo of me at about aged 7, smiling with my thumb up, with his arm around me. Whihc is kinda creepy in retrospect, especially because it was at school.

Hmmm.

I served Rowan Atkinson with a coffee while he was filming Mr. Bean (I worked in the branch of Allders where he was looking for a frying pan to fit his fish).

I got Tony Hawkes to sign my copy of Stutter Rap because I thought it would be funny and my mate had a spare motorbike hat with him so we could go get it.

I ponced a light off Stewart Lee outside the Drill Hall in London.

I got Emu'd at a pantomime when I was a kid.

We all ignored David Walliams wandering round mugging to the non-existent cameras at a local fete last summer.

I met Terry Pratchett breifly while I was at Uni.

I saw Stephen Fry in my local branch of WHSmiths, but I didn't exactly meet him. I just stared at him from a distance.

I think living in a small valley in Wales I should be given dispensation to include all my mates as well. So.....oh shit :(

You met me.

You met me.

Were you the one sat opposite me making eyes at Aaron all night?

Yes when you asked me to stop and look at you and I refused, you cried.

That's because you made an impression. I think it was Rory Bremner.

Nope but the mashed potato was nice. Extra creamy I thought. Did you add butter?

What was Sue Perkins liiiike?

Very friendly. I got her autograph too and like Danny Wallace she did a caricature. I wished her good luck for Maestro, that BBC classical conductor show. It was week or so before it aired because I think some of the shows were going out live. And she later won. Though I'm not saying my good luck wishes were the reason she won. That would be a lie. A big lie. But out of everyone I've met, they were a rather nice bunch of people. :)

Why not, let's have two smiles. :) :)

Oh! I did also verrry briefly meet Reginald Hunter and Andy Hamilton, actually.

I've met him. He liked my boots! (he also said some nice things about my writing). :)

I like your boots too...well I like the left one at least it has more character. The right seems like a bit of a jerk.
