Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

When I was about five and at a pantoI was called up to the stage along with a load of other little kiddiewinkles. In 1982 Michael Barrymore couldn't apparently tell the difference between a boy and a girl.
He called me a girl. I told him off.
and fishing around a pile of junk at my mom and dad's I came across Johnny Ball's Think Box - a book of puzzles and things to make by the great man himself (circa 1980)
