I once got Denis Compton's autograph at Whipsnade Zoo. Was it him?

As you're confident he's short I'm going for Clive Woodward, even if he didn't manage Southampton.

We have a winner. Yes, George Burley stood next to me in the queue for Nemesis Inferno. I have a long range shot (which he caught me taking) if anyone would like to see it.

Does anyone want to play "guess who I saw in EuroDisney about five years ago"?

Please leave this until Sophie can join in, although since she said she'd be contributing every three days and has currently exceeded her quota I wouldn't like to speculate when that might be. Sweepstake for 8:32 a.m.

I suppose Google would tell me who George Burley is if I could be arsed, but I certainly would not recognise him even if he turned out to be the guy who's coming (real soon I hope) from DynoRod to unblock my bog :roll:
I dunno why I bother to read this thread, as I'm useless on celebrities, especially footballers :P
