Weren't me Rich. I wouldn't be seen dead in Fowlers! :emoji_grin:
Weren't me Rich. I wouldn't be seen dead in Fowlers! :emoji_grin:A court me of weeks back I was on the Isle of Wight and walked into Fowler’s in Ryde and there was a lad with Ccfc shirt and scarf on. Didn’t say anything as I was out with a customer, but he was more into ccfc than lads around here.
I’m down there with work tomorrow want me to get you some?
just remembered one.
I worked at a hotel in Cyprus a few years ago and I was working in the kids club and randomly Paddy Kenny came and picked his daughter up from the session. We then chatted about cov for a few minutes. He was very complimentary about us. Lovely guy.
I thought you were going to say it was the Monty Python scene where the couple were buying a mattress, but they couldn't say the word otherwise the salesman would put a paper bag over his head.<snip>
I asked if she met anyone famous and she said no and said she just had to pretend she was looking at beds all day with a family and was told to just keep looking at the beds, facing the same way all the time. She didn't understand why she wasn't allowed to turn around, but just did as she was told. A sales assistant was showing them round.
Anyway, the film came out and it was Grimsby with Sacha Baron-Cohen and the scene was Sacha Baron-Cohen having sex on a bed in a furniture store.
It's the opening scene from the film and you can see my daughter in the background. She was therefore there all day looking at beds while behind her and in the foreground of the scene, Sacha Baron-Cohen spent the whole of the day's shoot having fake sex with a female actress, with my daughter completely oblivious as to what was going on.

Stacking shelves with Elvis and Martin Boorman?The amount of famous footballers I see in Tesco on a Thursday night, loads... don't know why they end up there....
Seen Ricky Hatton at the big weekend last week. He wouldn’t take photos with anyone and seemed a right old nasty piece of work.
This is strange. As only yesterday I was waiting outside a shop in Bell Green as a chap on twitter noticed a tweet of mine asking if they still sold those half and half shirts, half Cov City,half England ? He had one and said I can have it, so I said I'd meet him in Bell Green to pick it up. As I was waiting a woman walked past me and then came back, she then went on asking how I was, and it was great to see me again etc. I hadn't seen her before in my life, but she was adamant she knew me. I thought shall I be truthful and say sorry who are you ? But she then said " Best be off as I've a bus to catch, hope to see you again." And off she went. Very strange !was out with my mates once in leamington and a bloke came over and greeted me like a long lost friend ..insisted on buying me and mates a drink and saying how he hadn't seen me for years .. and was great to see me spent half an hour telling me what he had been doing for the last ten years ..fuck knows who he was or who he thought I was ..I pretended to go to the toilet in the end .and left him to it
Yep. Had that a couple of times. People have sworn I was someone else.This is strange.

This is a new thread. As its more common than you think. My sister said to me last year that she'd seen me in Leicester, as that's where she lives. I said no it wasn't me, I only go there to visit her occasionally, and hadn't been for months. She kept on saying I was walking down a street near the city centre,as she drove past and was surprised I didn't hear her sound her car horn,and her waving at me ! I told her repeatedly that I was working in Coventry miles away at that time, so how the hell could it have been me ? But no she said it looked like me and the bloke even had the same walk, and was I sure it wasn't me ! In the end she agreed that I have a double in Leicester !Yep. Had that a couple of times. People have sworn I was someone else.
What's really quite amusing is how they persist once you say they are mistaken.
'You sure you're not Jonathan?'
'Yep. Sure.'
'Is Jonathan your brother then?'
'Nope.'
'You sure?'
'Yep. I don't have a brother called Jonathan and I don't know any Jonathan's.'
'Well you look like Johnathan.'
'Well there's nowt I can do about that.'
'Okay. Sorry about that.'
'No problem.'
They start to walk away, but then return
'Are you sure you're not Jonathan?'
But you are Irrelevant! !I went to the post office counter in the city centre yesterday and the bloke behind the counter swore blind that I was a reverend.
He didn't believe me when I said I was not.
He asked if I was sure and I said I am pretty much the opposite of a reverend and that he could now address me as the antichrist.
I am for the most part.But you are Irrelevant! !
Oops Sorry Otis bleedin predictive, meant to be irreverant.But you are Irrelevant! !
Like Leonardo DiCaprio you mean?Oops Sorry Otis bleedin predictive, meant to be irreverant.
Did he say to her 'Micky Adams is enjoying this'?Stood shoulder [Hers] to midriff with Lilly Allen at Cheltenham festival a few years back watching a race and also Alex Ferguson at Doncaster races !
Had two close encounters with City managers past and present as saw Mr and Mrs Strachan at Alicante airport in 2005 and she gave us the thumbs up as I was wearing a CCFC polo shirt ! Also boarded a plane to Lanzarote and were sat at the back of the plane with Micky Adams and his family. He was really nice to my eldest daughter who sat right next to him sharing his ipod etc and chatting about the City !
Maybe !? Really nice bunch to be fair the Adams family ( cue Otis again ) and only an ordinary holiday flight, nothing flash.Did he say to her 'Micky Adams is enjoying this'?
So they were nice and not at all creepy and kooky?Maybe !? Really nice bunch to be fair the Adams family ( cue Otis again ) and only an ordinary holiday flight, nothing flash.
Now this is freaky!!Yep. Had that a couple of times. People have sworn I was someone else.

Now you know what I look like.Now this is freaky!!
I just plucked the name Jonathan out of thin air. Was just using that as an example and no-one has ever mistaken me for a Jonathan before. Been a few Dave's and Tom's etc.,but never a Jonathan.
Anyway, yesterday I was walking in Broadgate and some bloke walking in the opposite direction and some 15 yards away, suddenly piped up with 'Hi Jonathan' and then carried on walking.
My jaw dropped like a stone.
Weird and I don't think it was anyone from on here picking up on what I posted either.
I heard that without his glasses he could'nt tell a German from his own team just took them all out !Nobby Stiles told me to eff off
