Have you ever met a celebrity or a famous person?

If yes, who was it?

Noam Chomsky replied with a flattering and kind email to me.

He never said anything to me, but Charley Kirk followed me on X. He is from Illinois and loves nature stuff so that's what I assume he was following me for.

Yes, comedian Ronnie Barker, Britain's former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, actor Christopher Chittell, athlete Chris Brasher (a friend of my ex boss), soccer players Don Goodman and Adrian Littlejohn (I knew Adrian before he became famous as we lived on the same housing estate), Don and Dave from the rock band Slade, author Terry Pratchett, Ray Davies from the Kinks, television presenter Adrian Chiles and Duran Duran musician Andy Taylor whom I came to know personally as he is married to my ex boss' daughter.

My favorite would be Christopher Eccleston from Doctor Who although as it was only for a photo I only got to say a couple of things to him.

I've met other famous people though.

I dated a famous children story book writer once, that's about it.

Saw Masen Ramsey (The Yodel Boy) at a local restaurant the other day. He's actually from Southern IL so he was visiting his grandparents which I've met a few times.
