    There must be an amusing story behind this. Please tell!

    Btw when I get a moment I'll write about the time my mates got mistaken for the Chemical Brothers in Tokyo. Insane.

    Not really, just people that were fans of something that I made, but that I was in no way the 'face' of.

    A line 1,000+ people long, that I had to introduce myself to them all, as I was signing their T-Shirts etc.

    I was at Siverstone British gp walking to the entrance and I was closely followed by Emlyn Hughes with a couple of his mates. After a good previous night one slipped out it floored Emlyn. He was choking and almost on his knees. Imagine my shock when I heard his recognisable voice being choked by a decent portion of methane.

    After reading this brilliant thread, it's brought home to me that I'm a dull man who has led an extremely grey life.:D

    Amazing. Anyone who didn't know who Emlyn Hughes was must have thought you'd farted helium.

    I've been groped, while sleeping, by a genuine navy sailor. I would like to be able to say it had a terrible effect on me and I'm emotionally scarred, but I can't cos it didn't and I'm not.

    I just told him he better fk*c the fk*c off, which he did, and I went back to sleep. When we woke the next morning he and his sailor mate, their tent and all their stuff had gone.

    Now, if he'd only asked...

    Walked 526 miles round Yorkshire on my own in one continuous journey, in April/May 2019, only to end up at the exact same place where I started. Best pint ever when I got there.

    As long as he didn’t ask for a pint of Carling once the rejection came then I believe you

    I can’t join in with my stories now I’m not anonymous and my job is well known on here. It’s rubbish having to be professional sometimes, I could tell some right tales from my time working in Tenerife! They stay safe with me though as I traveled alone and even my mates don’t know some of them.

    I don’t want to list a load of things here and bore people to death, but two highlights;

    1) Along the Sophie EB line. I might have had a Wakefield dance floor rendezvous with Chanelle from Big Brother before she earned heself thousands of pounds being a ‘Nuts Model’

    2) I went out partying with the lead singer of Santagold in Brussels when I was on my own. The night before I was due to meet the London Tykes At the train station to head to Benicassim. Made the train by about 30 seconds after sleeping in.

    Special mentions for Brit Awards after party at the top of the Heron Tower with Mark Robson giving a DJ set with his award. And seeing The Cribs live at least 114 times with more to come

    Sign up with a new account (maybe DropJam or DamJrop so we are not on the scent!) and post them under that name...
