I've just remembered that Spuggy from Byker Grove was in a nightclub in Sunderland many years ago
She ended up on the dancefloor surrounded by about 10 lads all chanting "SPUGGY SPUGGY" until she burst into tears and ran off.

Last: Rufus Sewell on Saturday.
Best: Seen - Stephen Fry, doing an interview outside The Festival Hall. Met - In The Newman's Arms near Charlotte Street, John Hannah. Nice chap. Called me a cunt. Actually, he said 'Are you as Spurs fan', I said 'no, why?' and he said 'because you're acting like one', which is basically the same thing).

I don't know but whenever my mates come through my village they're always spotting Cov city footballers (and I use the term 'footballers' loosely) and telling me about them. As for me, I wouldn't recognise a footballer if they stood up in my soup.

I once had a go at Brian from Big Brother
and my step dad once shouted at Dappy from Ndubzzzz because he took his whole fucking entourage to the bar with him and no-one else could get a pint. Shouted something like "You don't need 12 bodyguards, no-ones going to touch someone with a hat that stupid" This was in the pub across the road from a new night club that was opening and ndubz were playing on opening night. Just a few short years later and that hot new club is Camborne Wetherspoons. What does that say about Ndubbliez eh kids?

loads of footballers live by my dad
if i could spell veeeeditch, i could tell you that he lives next door. and rooney rented the house opposite until his mcmansion was ready.
alex ferguson is a mate of my dad's, so occasionally (and i mean about once a decade) i come downstairs to see him guzzling whisky in the lounge. when i was about 15, he said to my dad, "you're not letting her out in a skirt like that, are you?"
i don't know whether to be happy or cross this morning. happy because i did 90 mins in the gym before work. cross because my new granola cereal was six fucking pounds fucking seventy fucking five fucking pence for a 500g bag. i did not realise this until i was already at the till in the deli. anyway, it's fucking RANK.

I also met the singer of one of my favourite bands (Heaven Shall Burn), and he turned out to be a really nice guy, but I doubt most here will have heard of them.
Alt: Probably either Michael Owen, Marcus Bischoff or Big Val (he was fucking huge).

It was only after Ron got very cross with my dear step father in a very strong Cornish accent that it dawned on him how insulting it might be to confuse someone with a fat, short, ugly, sweaty porn star. In the morning it also dawned on him that the chance of Ron Jeremy being in the Waggoners on a tuesday night were very low.
