[nilesfunnies] Fw: > That's *Lord* Coe to you

> That's *Lord* Coe to you

Did you hear the "Do you know who I am" story connected with Lord Coe?

He was invited to something or other at Lord's Cricket Ground, arrived
late and tried to gain admittance. The jobsworth on the gate told him he
was at the wrong gate and needed to go around to the far side. Coe pleaded
to be let in because it would be quicker to cross the ground than to have
to go all the way round. Jobsworth refused.
"Do you know who I am?" demanded Coe.
"No" said Jobsworth, and then, on being told in whose presence he stood,
replied "Well you'll be able to run round the other side all the quicker
then"
