I also know [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Lomas#Inspiration_of_fictional_workthe bloke who is supposed[/url (by some) to have been the inspiration for the main bloke in the Da Vinci Code. I assume it's the guy Tom Hanks plays in the film, but since I would rather witness the death of my entire family than either read or watch it I don't really know.

He used to pop down from the library upstairs to see his mate in the next office. He would leave that office, with its two people, so he didn't disturb them when his phone rang. That would be cool if he stayed in the corridor, but he came into our office, with its ten people, and stare absent mindedly out of our window while pontificating on whatever bull he'd made up that week.

Cock of ages.

We stayed in the same hotel as the Bulls squad on the first weekend we played Catalan in France.

My mate and I had the room next to Medley and McNamara and we regularly passed them in the coridoor during the weekend. On the morning of the game, we made my mate dress as Spiderman as we'd paid for his flight. Just as we were walking past Macca and Medley's room on the day of the game they were coming out of the door, my mate turns around (dressed as Spiderman) and asks:

"Was that you two making all those banging noises last night?".

We quickly jumped in the lift.

A good few years ago hubby was on big breakfast and met All Saints, they insisted on showing him their new (weeping) tatoos - nice!

Said he didn't want to offend them so he had a good look.

The whole St Helens first team squad? Weeping seems quite fitting.

Is your mate that guy doing the Spiderman Dance at Les Cats (cafe near by?) on Y-Tube? If he is, the man is a LEGEND!!!!

Had you just asked him if he was Gerald Cordle?

Wasn't really stuck with him but Robbie Paul winked at me in moonrakers, think it was just after we won our first super league crown, so hopefully he was full of the joys of being crowned champions, none the less i supped up and bidded a hasty retreat just in case

He certainly is, have a look at the spiderman merry go round too - that was from the first Perpignan weekend too.

You'd have thought a fireman would have more sense.........

TOP MAN!

I still can't watch that (must be several months since I last saw it) with chuckling. He's far too good at it.

Just watched the Merryground . . . .PMSL

He's like the STIG. . . . only BETTER!

Ahh, that's just reminded me, My Mum & I saw Gerry in Morribobs at 5 lane ends, just after he'd signed. There was a story on the back of the T&A about him and it took us 10 mins of "you go over", "no you go over" to finally speak to him.
Thoroughly nice bloke.

I've also remembered a Leon pryce encounter.
I once made a (rugby league skills) video with him for the Rugby League. This was before he signed, it must have been 1994 IIRC. John Kear was also involved, as he was something to do with the RL back then, with Gary Schofield doing the "coaching" of us.
There was a week's worth of shooting it, which took place at Dudley Hill (Where I played at the time!)

I saw and did a massive mid air double take of Craig Richards working in Ikea
