The Hidden Glasgow Forums

Shook hands with Princess Di in Garnethill circa 1994.
Met Muhammad Ali at a book signing in Waterstones (Ca'do'ro) around 1992.
Said "alright?" to Billy Connolly in the Ashoka, Ashton Lane a couple of years ago.
Saw Eric Stoltz in Glasgow airport back in 2000.

For any lads who enjoyed a bit of WWF action in their boyhood, Brett "Hitman" Hart will be in Waterstones Sauchiehall Street a week on Sunday.

I spotted Mary Sandeman dressed in her 80's Japanese outfit going in to building at the corner of ArgyleSt/West Campbell a while back. Nearly thirty years ago come to think of it. Around about the same time Mr Superbad used to DJ in Targets bar Renfield Street on a Thursday I think it was.

Hey Guys back after a five year hiatus :)

last famous person I saw was Kate Moss at the kills concert in Oran Mor last year....chased her to toilet.

Some rangers player stays in the building next to me no idea of his name though!

Bobby Patterson from Love and Money lived opposite me just before he passed away

"Och no much I sure I worked beside him in some garage.

Ah saw Tom Constanten yesterday (He was the first Grateful Dead keyboard player) amazing eh!!

Not exactly on the street but Billy Stark got in a lift with me at Hampden a few weeks ago.

I really wanted to ask "Billy, is that George Burley's real voice or does he just love ripping the pish out of himself" but the polite me won over.

the last famous person i saw on the streets was fred mccauley and he was walkin down the street whisltin on my 18th birthday im now 25 :) i dont get to see many famous ppl!

Ford Keirnan was in Greggs in Nithsdale Road today. Sounded a wee bit like his alter -ego Ronald Villiers when he asked for his sliced brown loaf.

Did you not shout "haw fatty here's a kit kat for you".

Just a simple "Your're not funny" would have been my response.Then maybe a boot in the stones.

I like it. The subtle angle.

Spotted on Buchanan Street just after 5pm today: John Paul McGilvray.

* awaits cacophony of "Who?" *

Anyway, he played Gerry in River City, the solicitor who was a bit too fond of the old (snort, snort) Snow White.

I am guessing he's "resting" at the moment as he was chugging for Shelter.
