Nobody that I know of where I live now, but I can drop a few names from where I lived in Wiltshire, Princess Anne, Duchess of Cornwall (I used to maintain her heating so knew her quite well) and her son Tom who used to bring me cups of tea and is now well known on TV, Lesley Crowther, Roddy Llewellyn, a previous Secretary for N Ireland who I can't name, Lucinda Green (show jumper), Capt Mark Phillips, Ludovic Kennedy and his wife Moira Shearer who were customers of mine as was the late Mike Scott (Granada TV).

One of my more off the wall aquaintances was The Naked Gardener when he owned Hazelbury Manor, Box near Bath:
