Roachy and I met Jesus a couple of years ago. He was in a hotel in Glossop getting drunk on his birthday.
We'd gone out to Glossop for a Christmas Day ride and popped into one of the hotels there to warm up and this fella dressed very smartly came over and shook my hand. He offered to buy us both a drink because it was his birthday.
Being Christmas Day, I of course asked him if he was Jesus and he answered "Yes"!
