i once was waiting to load a container from an auction house who were selling off all of liberace s (the piano playing fairys ) house,stage gear and personal effects. the house did £8 million…the piano £3 million,the candelabra did £1 million each,but they couldnt get anyone to bid on the piano stool??
exactly how famous do you need to be before they word it that you were assasinated instead of just killed??
I once deliver 26 pallets of car part to Nelson Mandela. It was only as I was struggling to get the last pallet onto the tail lift when the great man himself appeared and pointed out that my notes actually said “Nissan Main Dealer”. My, how we laughed.
Whilst chauffeuring in Dublin, I collected Gary Lineker and a few of his buds from the airport to play golf at Portmarnock.
He never spoke once to me when I picked them up, took them to the game, back to the hotel, picked them up took them to dinner, then back to their hotel. I caught him trying to leave litter in the boot of the coach and told him…OY LINEKER NOOOO! He eventually smiled! ■■■.

Had a parcel for Prince Charles at Balmoral in my trailer when I was at UPS. I didn’t deliver it though, just trunked it to the depot so it probably doesn’t count.[emoji20]
Im really stretching the famous thing here, but I used to deliver to Allan Wilson vending in Kirkcaldy and one of the warehouse guys is the one and only john rowbotham! Famous in Scotland anyway
Delivered a load of catering equipment to an ITV shoot at a country hall in Cheshire when I was about 20. Rick Mayall walked up to a bush about 10 yards from me and had a pee. He even looked at me before he did it.
