        Topgear is excellent. went there and met the crew from there and sat in the F40 & Enzo they had there.

        Met prince philip with the sea cadets, met the queen and a few other royals but thats it really.

                          Oh I wasn't gonna bother, but what the hey - if its a name dropping contest...

                          Was backstage at Ozfest in Donnington a few years ago - briefly met Ozzy and his 'boss' who is now more famous than him. Takes no prisoners that bint.

                          Also literally bumped into Brian May, backstage at the AC/DC concert in the Odeon (two years ago ?) who was looking to get a drink for him and his daughter. Ended up buying them a beer from the normal punters outlet and carrying it back to them. I couldn't not for goodness sake - after all he has done for me over the years !

                          Uhhh - who else - oh yeah said hello to Sean Connery many years ago coming out of an airline lounge at Gatwick.

                          And I was once utterly amazed at the sheer tiny stature of Kylie coming thru LAX once. Massive entourage with her... Doesn't really count that one... But I think thats it for me.

                                in a previous job working in F1 spent several days testing with the Arrows team, had PDLR complain to me about the pit lane speed limit software , then thank me a few weeks later when it was better .

                                At one memorable test just before the British GP was stood on the pitwall saw Micheal S go past on the main straight turned round and looked straight down into Damon Hill's Jordan cockpit.

                                Went to the launch of the McLaren car that featured the spice girls. Been at a McLaren xmas party on the table next to DC.

                                Appeared in some of the BAR launch pictures.
