    Been to the Dakota building, always find it mad standing in places where historical stuffs happened, l always turn to the missus and say "John Lennon was shot here" Seen Tutankhamen treasures in the Cairo museum and said "he used to wear this round his neck".. seen the statue of David and commented "thats Michelangelo's chisel marks"

    But the biggest one of the lot was when l grabbed the netting of the away end goal after the Bradford win and said "Clints shot hit here"

    When me and the missus visited the Coliseum in Rome, I said “I remember when Russell Crowe was in there.”

    True story.
