We see lots of well known faces here in Helensburgh and its home to many Scottish footballers, Managers and piundits. We are also beside the world famous Loch Lomond golf course and some of them use a fabby wee restaurant here in our town, when the Open's on. The set of River City is 8 miles away but scenes are reularly filmed in Helensburgh, so its not unusual to see some of the cast sitting having coffee in a local Cafe.
And of course...there's Me.....maybe notorious rather than famous would suit better!
:D

The topic is who have you seen in and around your local area, not which famous people have you met :D



I was in their area at the time I met them:D

We sat on an adjacent restaurant table to the 'Friends' star David Schwimmer!
As we are massive 'Friends' fans it was very difficult not to stare!  :)

Yes I thought that today, Hendry has won millions in prize money alone - but pretty much an everyday guy in Tesco with his wife and child.

BM06 when you refer to yourself you use a capital I. On second thoughts you have such a small mind a small i is about right.

Steady on Gerry, it was a tongue in cheek comment in a fairly casual topic - I'm sure BM06 didn't mean it as a nasty or personal comment so there really is no need for you to do so. Can I go to bed now :D
