Reading earlier that the twins from Matrix 2 have trained with PaulC.........I was wondering what other people's claims to fame are???

 

Come on, everyone has something..........like my brother's next door neighbour knows Rod Stewart or something like that........

 

I'll start it off;

 

My cousin is Simon Jordan and he owns Crystal Palace Football Club.

George Michael eh, aren't you lucky, sound very close!!! hehehe :D Oh and my personal claim is that I drove Stig Blomqvist's RS200 when was 17, Nice bloke.

I went to college with the girl who plays Toya in Corrie.

 

I have seen a girl from my Drama class from college on Cutting It. Well done to her.!

 

Played on the same team as Terry Newton Great Britain Rugby League player.

 

Steve Hampson (Ex Wigan Rubgy player) is my 2nd cousin or something.

 

A picture fo the car I was in a pile up on the M1 was on the first Dong of the News at Ten.

My cousin was until last year chaufer to Mick Jagger and went on tour with Rod Stewart. Hes told me a few stories!! Jerry must have been a very forgiving person?

 

His job ended when he wrote a book called 'you can drive my car'

Which immediately had an injunction put on it.

 

It is out now but heavily watered down.

Matty.

 

Matty What's your surname, you're not a Waterman as well are you ?. I'm a Waterman and so is Dennis and Peter but no relation of mine, that I know of.

 

Not got much claims to fame really....

1) Martial arts trophies into tripple figures up in the loft (Pre bike accident).

2) Dad's cousin wrote the theme tune to Desmondsa and the song "Ghost town"

3) Met Jasper Carrot at Gatwick Airport.

4) Helped Ronnie O'sullivan win £75 at my snooker club. He didn't even say thanks.

5) Almost chinned that Hamilton bloke the stroppy shite (also at snooker club) This year infact.

6) Was very naughty when I was about 14 and threw a stone at Frank Bruno's window. Just to get him to come out and chase us. Window never broke and no one came out. :(

And Peter Shilton was a Customer of mine when i used to work at the garage.

 

But the best one must have been when we used to boyrace round birmingham in the 90's and we saw the Outhere Brothers going into their hotel, so we played them to them on the stereo and they did a little dance for us at the side of the road!!

 

Spose you had to be there!

About 5 months ago Gazza gave me £50 to keep the rabble away from him:D

1. My cousin is Julia Morley, who used to own MECCA bingo/betting etc. and also owns the Miss World contest.

 

2. I used to work at the Royal Albert Hall so got to meet plenty of celebz. I knocked Jimmy Sommerville on his ass when he tried to walk through me in a corridoor and made me spill my coffee on my new leather jacket. Also met New Order, INXS, Lionel Richie.

 

3. I occasionally help a mate out who works in the film industry, so I've met Dustin Hoffman, Brad Pitt, also Nicole Kidman and.......Natalie Imbruglia:D :p :D

 

4. We used to slap Pogo Patterson from Grange Hill around EVERY DAY. He used to have to wait at a bus stop near my school (little schit deserved it)

shush we dont want them finding out i am your secret love child ;)

 

get on MSN when you have a chance need to ask you something ;)

I almost forgot...............

 

I was on the news when I was 12, my great nan was 100 and I was next to her when they were talking to her!!

 

I was wearing my 'knight rider' t-shirt.............man was I cool.....

 

Matty.

i met howard marks (infamous dope smuggler/pothead/author) at the manumission motel in ibiza a few years ago.

 

i was a naive 17 yr old at the time and man did that place freak me out, has anyone been? i'm talking about the hotel run by the people who do manumission - not the club night!

 

a gang of us were given tickets to get into this place by a midget that we met out one night. when we arrived there was a dwarf and a transvestite on the door, we went through to the bar which was tiny and had water dripping from the ceiling and a pole in the corner. we all got a drink and sat down - feeling pretty uncomfortable because everyone else seemed to know each other. then a girl came out and started pole dancing and nobody even batted an eyelid. when she was finished she went over to the bar naked and had a drink and a chat with the people stood there.

 

we'd heard all these mad rumours about the parties that go on at this place and after an hour started thinking "is this it". then we went to investigate and and found a staircase that just kept on spiraling up and up. eventually we came out on the roof which was all decked out with fake grass, palm trees, hammocks and little beach huts and a bar. it was amazing - the maddest place i've ever been - then to complete the evening i met one of the worlds most famous drug dealers!

 

sorry for the massive post and slight thread-hijack but i think its a good story. (it sounds betterwhen i tell it in person - promise!)

Don't apologize, good story man. I have read the book, "Mr Nice" wasn't it? excellent book, some mad sheet going on in there.

Howard Marks emailed me asking if I could run his website !

 

 

This is me playing the Steinway piano in Maida Vale Studio 3. My band were recording part of our CD there. Same piano that Freddy Mercury, John Lennon, David Bowie have previously used.

Well on the sinister side of claim to fame:

my house (well mum and dads) Is the house owned by the guy that was murderd in the its a knock out murder brought it off his wife and was filmed by C4 for a documentry about it with out permision and they had to give full appology one of those ITC things at the end :p

Ok then, sinister claims to fame......

 

1. I used to work for DHL Couriers. We had a sales rep in Reading (lovely girl) who didn't show up for work. They found her the next week, after a local farmer in Reading found one of her rings stuck in one of his pigs teeth. The girls ex-boyfriend cut her up and fed her to them!!:eek: :(

 

2. Again at DHL (glad I don't work there anymore!) We had a two-day 'customer service' training course, held by an outside training company. The lady that was training us didn't come in for the second day of the course........because her ex-boyfriend had shot her in the head with a crossbow on her front door step.

 

Both incidents made MAJOR news headlines.
