I haven't met anybody really famous, seen a few of the pro snooker players walking round town in the past though, if that counts. :)

He put the 50p under a dish and when I picked the dish up he said that's for you young man,apparently he had travel phobias and did not like flying and prefered to travel buy train.

I went to the WOMAD festival with a group including caroline wilkinson (who? you say) - she's the facial reconstructor who was on 'meet the ancestors' at the time and is now a professor - she did the richard III face.

 

she was dead nice, but I thought her richard reconstruction was a swizz cos she had a picture to copy! cheat.
