I once spilt a pint down Dean Gaffney's back by accident. He was wearing a leather jacket at the time so didn't notice. Who wears leather jackets in a nightclub anyway? Serves him right.0

I was in a restaurant on Saturday night waiting to be seated, as was Eddie Large, no sign of Sid. He's not that large either.
Today I kind of pushed in at the bar, did not realise that Dan Lloyd was next to be served. Apologised to him as I felt bad, especially as all he wanted was water for his baby's bottle!0 -

I was at school with Chris Hoy (same year, shared many classes together, and played rugby for the school team). I have seen him since Sydney Olympics when he won silver, but not seen him since (although we have spoken). I would like to think though that he tells others that he was in my class at school!0

It's a shame it wasn't a suede jacket so he couldn't just wipe it clean - that's my only regret.0
