I briefly went out with a receptionist at a dentist in Cheshire where George Best was a patient.
Other patients included Freddie “Freddie and The Dreamers” Garritty.
I never met either of them, and we broke up soon after.

I also have a story almost as good as this about Nigel Planer of The Young Ones.

As kid went up to Leeds with my parents to get something with Greenshield stamps
Went in a chippy and Billy Bremner patted me on the head. Also had a chat with Paul Gascoigne at Knowsley safari park. God he can chat
