Bumped into Matt Ingram, Alex Lynch and Charlie Horlock on the par 3 course at Wycombe Heights about 10 years ago.
Had a nice chat with them and played a few holes together, although I’d known Matt since I was about 8 and went to JHGS with him, so it didn’t seem anything out of the normal to me!
In my homebase days I would often speak to Keith Ryan. He actually came in the week before the Liverpool game and i had a chat with him then. Would bump into him a few times over the next few years. I eventually moved to Swansea and on a visit back he remembered and asked how it was going down there. For someone who started supporting in the early 90's that was pretty cool.
Most recent ex-Wycombe player was during the Swansea street food festival. A Sunday evening two and half years ago saw me bump into Russell Martin. Went over and mentioned I'd been there for his goal against Macclefield and what a goal it was. I think he was stunned to meet a Wycombe fan in Swansea. Had a chat about Wycombe and it turned out he didn't live far from me in his early Wycombe days walking his dog round the Kingsmead!
I remember being in town one Saturday lunch time before a home game and saw Mark Westhead there shopping. Didn't say anything, but guessed (correctly) that he wasn't in the squad for that afternoon's match.

I struggle to remember any actual walls in there. It just seemed to be a huge space (admittedly with walls of some description holding it up).
To give an idea of the size of it (in my dodgy memory anyway) a full size bus didn’t seem to be a dominant feature at all.
It was National Tyres and Exhausts before the Emporium. Just a cavern of a place.
The first person to greet me this morning was Bodger Horseman. Can anyone beat that? I once saw Andy Kerr at Notting Hill Carnival.

If you've given a thumbs down to @ChairboyTom, is there any chance you could explain why? Just curious.
