Brian Tiler about 40 years ago at the outdoor pool in Sutton Park. He wasn't shopping as such, in fact he was sun-bathing.
That would have been about the time I had my bike pinched from outside there. You didn't see a red Raleigh Olympus at the same time did you.

or a burnt orange chopper bike?

I did bump into non football playing, non Villa related, wizened featured professional bore and midget statured magician Paul Daniels one day shopping in Edinburgh.
Did I like it? Not a lot.

Years ago - probably around 1996 time - I was having coffee/breakfast somewhere in Brindleyplace on a Sunday morning with my then girlfriend when Gareth Southgate sat down at the next table. With a stunning, totally 'out of his league' looking woman who I'm pretty sure he went on to marry. We had a brief chat, very friendly bloke.

Colin Gibson - Last week coming out of the offie on Boldmere Road, he looked like he had interrupted a bit of decorating to nip out for some cans.

Pat Heard - I was behind him on the Queslett Asda island on Friday.

Tony Morley - In Asda at Minworth last week.

I saw Isiah Osbourne in HMV at The Fort a few months ago.

Was he working there?

Not a footballer, but Sarah Falkland of Midland Today did once tell me to leave her alone.

Actually, she more sort of screamed.

Is Suzanne Verdy still on Midlands today, she always perked my evening up?

Luke Moore was in Touchwood, Solihull one day last week with a very small female friend..

I used to know a couple of girls who'd boast about having sucked him off.

True story.

I bet after all the hype and a promising start, he failed to fulfil his potential.

I saw George Best in the car next to me at the lights.

The disturbing thing is it was only a couple of weeks ago.

I'm astonished no one has spotted Richard Dunne coming out of a Greggs.

She is indeed. Hands off, she's mine.

I saw Moustapha Hadji in an Italian restaurant owned by Riccardo Scimeca's parents.
