I know one of our number sees Minty each day he when he walks past a mirror but.........
Leaving job in Fulham today and slowed down to see some filming outside a cafe and saw LEO SAYER............2 minutes before one of his records came on radio   ::)
People on this forum from all over the country so why not add the celeb you saw today................................................

Used to see Liam and Noel Galager quite regularly when they lived a couple of streets away with there mother peg. ;D
Can just picture liam now, cleaning his moped vespa thingy with load of mirrors. He wasn't too impressed when I asked him if the mirrors aided rear view visibility, he told me to go and iron my cardigan :o

My most famous customer is, probably, Helen Mirren.
(Can't count Archbishop of Westminster or the crowd in Parliament.)
Did have to pass on job last week, for Colin Montgomerie.

No idea who he is as we never watch Eastenders, but we cleaned Goldies carpets today and have plenty of repeat business. My friend is all WOW about it but we've never seen him anywhere but at his house!
