Janis he was great ......... he has a certain charm that's for sure. Very funny man. I couldn't work for laughing that day and people around were looking at me to see if I was someone they ought to know too! It was funny.

Mark Hately is a mate of Lindsays and I have had him and his wife victoria in my car to take them to the opening of rascas a pub in clarkston. The first time Mark turned up to pick Lindsay up to take him to hospitality at Ibrox I nearly died.

I was on holiday and spent two weeks in Cancun on a all inclusive resort drinking with Rab Douglas, previous celtic goalie, when he was on his honeymoon. He was on my husbands volleyball team, Rab was'nt too great at catching the ball then either lol.

Have pictures of me and Tracy out of coronation street, and some of the other cast members, I dont know who as I have never watched corrie in my life, but they were at the same hotel as Rab in cancun doing a shoot for loaded mag.

The MacDonald brothers from the Xfactor are Lindsay's nephews and pop in for a visit now and again (I am a bit embarrassed to mention that!)

Through work I met our first 'first' minister and have spoken with the Angus Ogilvie's daughter in law.

Lindsay was transporting a prisoner from London to Glasgow and on the flight down to heathrow he was seated next to Robbie Coltraine. He said he is a giant of a man. He met him again a couple of years later and remembered him - as I think lindsay was embellishing all those police stories.

When My girlfriend from leeds first met Lindsay she said 'oh my god its Cracker' and I think the fatter he's getting the more he looks like robbie. I wish he had his money.

I've met Billy Connolly too at the Rothesay Folk festive and was talking to him far a while he was dead nice and seen me the next day on my bike and said hi. Have been out on a night out with Ally McCoist!!!!! and had a holidays fling with Laurence out of the band Ride when I was 19, have been back stage at a party with Manni from the Stone Roses.

Robbie Coltrane is a giant! He's huge. Incredibly well spoken and gracious. A very nice man.
Enid ........ I know .......... he is rather nice. I like the slightly scruffy look!

My father was the head of the film department with STV and I was introduced to numerous celeberities, Dusty Sprinfield, Duran Durans Simon le Bon I even got a kiss from him, Alice Cooper was my favourite. Glen Michael was friends with my father, I met Paladin and I toured the the sets of several shows, I also met Mark McManus from Taggart and a few more in between. I used to sit in the STV canteen and celeb watch.

I think Brenda wins hands down - wow.

I was on the time the place show, I went to support my slimming club class leader, and you had to phone and tell them a bit about yourself to get into the audience. Just before the commercial break - John stapleton laid his hand on my shoulder and said, after the break we will be speaking to kirsty - they almost had to hold me in the chair - I wanted to run a mile. But its funny, as soon as the cameras started rolling I thought I was a star and would't shut up - I guess we all want our 15 mins of fame. I still have that tape

[Lindy]

the Ally McCoist thing was when I was at Uni, quite a hariy wee lump of a guy he was much thiner then but still a lump and a bit tight with the old dosh
