I`m famous - well sort of...

Couldn`t believe it when I turned to page 14 of the new Home Entertainment mag and saw one of my forum postings reproduced in print.

This follows on from my Area 450 mention in Total DVD earlier this year.

Tomorrow, I`ll be quoted in the local newspaper as well, as I`m campaigning against the local bus company not to withdraw my bus service in September 2001.

I was also on Central TV earlier this year giving an interview about delayed London trains following an "incident" on the line at Attenborough village near Nottingham.

I`ll be signing autographs later...

Has anyone else got any "claims to fame" (I have a couple more in my locker, but I`ll save those for later) ?

I have a video in the shops called "stand up if you hate man U" and I do all the voices for "Clintons" celebrity birthday cards! I`ve also appeared on the "Big Breakfast".

I play the violin on one of the tracks of an Edwyn Collins album called `Hellbent on Compromise` - but I think I`m the only one who bought it...my name`s on the sleeve though :-)

"I`m just not worthy!"....I had no idea I was mingling with such great Celebs!.

My only claim to fame is, that I once appeared in the `nod`, on stage in a brighton nightclub, not my finest moment!.

Well done to you all.
I`m still waiting for my 15mins, perhaps if I just went out once in a while, I`d stand a chance....hmmmmmm! :)
