Just saw Paul Sironen near Wynyard Station this afternoon. Must have been going for a wander round Lowes

Make that both of us!

Terrible? Only has one giant pub, squashed in there like cattle, how can you blokes stand it? Beach is nice.

Saw Willie Mason in my local last night, ed out of his head, he didn't make much sense he kept mubbling something about a kebab.

Can't complain though he got me a beer, paid for it with a uk credit card.

joel monoghan...in a supermarket two weekends back. i had a paramatta shirt on at the time. it was then followed by me trying to explain who he was, and we he was playing over here to my girlfriend at a low enough volume for no-one else, or him to hear...

Met Danny Buderus and a few other Aussies after they had just beaten GB at Huddersfield. Seemed like a nice bloke.

We were stood on the raised seating area in the bar at Keighley Cougars when my daughter dropped her crisps over the balustrade - they all fell neatly down the back of Stuart Fieldens neck - he didn't look amused. I pulled out a photo of big Willy and he sat back down

I saw Darren Lockyer on a plane (he was coming over to commentate on the chalenge cup final, iirc). He was a nice guy, signed some broncos merchandise we'd brought back for my little cousin.

A few of my uni frends from Leeds have bumped into Ryan Bailey on nights out in Leeds city centre. He pushed in front of one of my mates, in teh queue to get in a club, when my mate questioned what he was doing, he said something along the lines of: 'do you know who i am', and then threatened him. Another mate bumped into him in an alleyway, Bailey told him to turn around and walk away, otherwise he would batter him, my mate said somthing like: 'but i need to go this way to meet some people... and im a rhinos fan' Bailey responded: 'i dont care, turn around' ... what a nice guy...

1999 Ashes test at the SCG bumped in to Matt Nixon who had played for Leigh the previous season.

Sat behind Greame West on a replacement bus service between Crewe and Wigan on the way back from last years challenge cup final. He saw my Wigan shirt and asked me what I thought of the game.

Used to see Les Quirk in The Railway (Lindal-in-Furness) pretty regularly.

Been in West's cab a couple of times. Nice fella and always up for a chat about rugby. Got a photo with John Monie in France a couple of years back, very modest chap.

Had a bit of banter with Billy Slater in Paris In 2009. He wasn't half the twunt I was expecting him to be
