mine would not be a claim to fame these days as he is not really remembered, but he lifted the FA Cup and I think the European Cup passed through his capable hands at one time.....is that what you meant? gulp

Ohh err, pink!

I ran a youth cricket team captained by Michael Vaughan.

I've danced with Miss England. (OK, it was a former Miss England and it was only a barn dance but, for me, it still counts!).

I've been quoted on the front page of the Daily Telegraph (totally out of context, but who cares?)
I don't know what I mean MWB what did you mean? dot exits the thread in confusion

Question Author
Were you Rob or Roy, steg?
Dot:

I haven't got a clue who it was.

Many years ago (in another life) I was one of the organisers of a staff-parent ceilidh at the school where I taught. Somebody brought along a guest who everyone whispered about: "She was Miss England, you know". Later that evening I found myself partnered with her, for a few dozey-does ;-)
I had a few convos with Dwight Yorke in the Living Room in Birmingham when he played for the blues. A friend of a friend was thinking of buying his Uncle's golf course in Tobago and so we were chatting about that.

This isn't a claim to fame but I'm very proud of myself.......

I once did CPR on a woman who had collapsed in the street. kept it up till the ambulance arrived & took over.

She survived but I never heard from her again. But that's ok.

Typing of Rob Roy.

I got 2nd prize in a dancing comp when I was about 8.

I got a packet of Rob Roy rolled oats!

What the hell sort of prize was that!
well done mwb........................nice 1..........
Zoe Spink was from Sowerby Bridge Chris (lived across from my Grandparents) did she have a Yorkshire accent?
Well done, MWB.

Along with a fellow first-aider, I helped save the life of a 14-year-old pupil who had severed an artery in his arm when he fell through a wired plate glass door (while his mates were chasing him with a can of 'fart spray'!).

The only communication either of us had from his parents was via their solicitor, seeking to find ways to sue either us or the education authority!
