Who’s the most famous person you’ve ever met? Tell us the story of how you met.

Used to be a Store Manager for Toys R Us (19years), so I’ve met quite a few celebrities but the biggest star was David Beckham.

I was running the Harlow site which is down the road from David Beckhams house. Met him a few times in store and also built Romeo and Cruz bikes for their Christmas presents – got to go to “Beckingham Palace” as they used to say, to deliver them. Really nice bloke.

Also had dinner with Chris Horner and the Red Bull Team at Silverstone a few years back. Was lucky enough to be invited  to the GP. Based at the Red Bull Team Complex for the weekend and sat with Jackie Stewart and his family, Mark Webber, Max Verstappen, Daniel Ricciardo, Damon Hill and obviously Geri Halliwell as well as Chris.
