    Mary Harney, Mary McAleese off the top of my head. Think I met Dennis Hickie years ago. I was on a plane with Dom Joly and Anne Robinson as well once.

    Met Dom Joly before. He "did" me for Trigger Happy when I was in Brussels bout 9 years ago. Never got shown though.

    Maybe having to have spent more than one night in Brussels was enough of a joke to be had on me. Awful sh1thole.

    Most famous person I've ever met would probably be Bono but I have met a fair few famous people. I don't put much credence in simply being famous.

    I started a thread in Feedback looking for new smileys. Seems the final word on it was "NO" . Some senoir people whinged that too much clogs things up and makes everything look bad or something....

    anyway

    face palm smiley

    Because on other vBulletin boards websites the facepalm smilies are moving and so take up more space. But yours is stationary. Fair play. You could be on to something. Virtual drinks are on us!

    Oh no, forgot me wallet..

    *where did you say that facepalm was?

    Charlie Gibson, who I've known for some time, and who used to anchor Good Morning America in NY, introduced me to Brad Pitt before GMA air time about 4 years ago. I was just a silly teen visiting NY and remember, but Brad wouldn't. He meets thousands of people like that all the time over the years.
