Right you've probably heard of the '7 friends rule' i.e. thorough a connection of 7 friends you can pretty much KNOW THE WORLD. So lets shrink that number now and find out what your greatest achievement is, or if you know directly someone famous or someone who has done something amazing.

I'll kick start with a modest one...


Greatest Achievement

my main claim to fame would be knowing the bodyguard of tiger woods.

His name is Ian and he is contracted to Nike to undertake bodyguarding within England..

So when the Open is on in this country etc he will bodyguard for Tiger Woods..

He does work for other sports personalities but knowhere near as high profile, it's good as i have some of Tigers golf balls he used in the open...

The guy is on this seriously gay and weird link... did a search on youtube and somehow found it

Met the BBC South Today Teamback in 2002 when they were doing a feature for Selsey Lifeboat Week 2002.

I got invited out by the Station Coxswain on the ALB (All Weather Lifeboat) the same day that the BBC South Today Team were at the station.

I've been on TV Twice, once back in 2002 with The Manhood Cycle Network and Meridian were filming part of the Sponcered Cycle, and the second time back in 2007 again Meridian were in Selsey doing a feature about the Snak Shak (Mobile Youth Cafe).

I've met Sir Patrick Moore.

There is a large statue of my great great grandad or something in Newcastle (Joseph Cowen).

Recognise the statue just can't put a finger on where!

IIRC it's opposite a casino?

My thing would probably be playing sunday league football with a Newcastle player, a Falkirk player and a Bolton player.

Bolton player snapped Ronaldo in two a few months back :p

My achievement would probably finishing the coast to coast bike ride in 17 hours none stop, was walking like I had had sex with a man of a certain ethnicity!

Greatest achievement is possibly packing the brake parachute for a the Vulcan Bomber plan and it actually working in Farnbourgh airshow last year.

Claim to fame. The Mod Father (Paul Weller from The Jam) used to live next door to my grandparents and is a good friend of the family. And i always get on the VIP Guestlist when he comes to Cardiff.

Nothing to exciting from me sorry.

Geoff Capes used to work at the brewery next door to my nans house, a ice cream van used to come by every friday. Geoff was in the cue, my Nan cut in front of him, he got pissed off, picked her up and plonked her on the roof of the van (this was about 30 years ago when my Nan was about 50 btw, GC is not a granny basher - I don't think..)

Not sayiing your talking shit, but if she 'was' your aunties sister.. that would make geri halliwell your auntie.. so why not just say that?

Pressumably he means one of his parents brothers wife, meaning she would only be his auntie by marriage and he would not be related to geri in anyway.

My grandad was the first man to own a car in Harrogate.
He was a wealthy man - he invented an additive for farmers to use in tractors......this was back in the 1930s and he made sooo much money from it, he bought a car, which was quite a rare thing in those days.
