I once sat on a table next to Englebert Humperdinck in an Indian Restaurant - the Manzil - in Leicester. Also queued up just behind Dave Bartram - singer with Showaddywaddy - on Leicester market. If that’s not enough, I met a young Gary Lineker when a mate of mine taught him at City of Leicester Boys and was introduced by another (rugby playing) mate to Clive Woodward when he was playing for Leicester Tigers. I don’t like to boast but late 70’s Leicester really was the place to be if you wanted to rub shoulders with greats of the sporting and entertainment worlds!
