    I've met Danny Wallace about six times, including once when we invited him to join us in the pub a few days later and he showed up! And another time he recognised me from behind after having not seen me for about a year.

    As you failed to pick up on a small error on this page and correct someone in a rather smug tone I may have to reconsider my vote!:p

    Is that even a grammar error? I think it's more of a spelling/vocabulary error.

    I should win the Grammar Granny award. For one thing, I even made a joke up to help people with the correct use of apostrophes.

    "Why did the plural leave the apostrophe? Because he was too possessive."

    Surely that simply confuses the issue?:confused: Oh wait, the apostrophe was possessive, not the plural...ahhh

    A few years ago I hitched a ride up to a festival in New Cross with either These Animal Men or The Super Furry Animals (I get confused between the two)

    They were driving a white transit, if that helps.

    Indeed. Now I think of it, I've also met Jack Cardiff, the cinematographer and Technicolor pioneer who often worked on Powell's films.

    Another time, I saw Ronnie Corbett in a music shop in the West End and pretended not to recognize him.

    some more ppl I've met:

    Sarah-Jane Morris, who sang with the Communards on Don't Leave Me This Way

    Zakir Hussain, the world's top tabla player

    John Kirkpatrick, top squeeze-box player

    When I was at Cambridge, I saw Harold Pinter and Lady Antonia Fraser having tea on the college lawn with one of the dons.

    My housemate was told (back in the 1970s) to "f**k off!" by John Lennon
