This is a question Shit Claims to Fame II

My car was in the Specsavers advert with the old lady and the loud stereo. Not me. My stupid blue Nissan Micra. Tell us about your brushes with fame.

Show business and Royalty
Once had post show drinks with Cliff and the Shadows, unfortunately Cliff the keyboard player not the singer. Came across Eddie Izzard in midst of intense discussions before a show in Hertfordshire, decided not to interrupt him, met the late Max Bygraves who wisecracked his way through a hotel restaurant fire in Bristol, went to school with Ian McNeice, star of Doc Martin, Ace Ventura, Rome etc.

But to top it all, my great or maybe great great Aunt was Archduchess Sophie who got assassinated in Sarajevo with her husband and precipitated the First World War.

Not much to show for over 60 years is it?

Westlife
How could I forget? Two members of Westlife came to my birthday party in Taiwan, as I held it in the pub opposite the venue where they played a show, and we had the big TV on which Ireland were playing in the Rugby World Cup. But the satellite receiver broke so they left. Nice lads though.
