He said: "He’s the best. He used to live in the next village to me.

"I could never hit one at the best of times but I’ve got a pair of shorts on, and a three iron.

"The noises were coming from the kitchen and I’m thinking it’s a burglar. I’m ready to react to what happens.

"I kick open the kitchen door…and I recognise the back of Paul Gascoigne in my fridge.

"He didn’t even turn around!

"I said, ‘Paul, what are you doing?’

"He’s still not turned around – ‘I’m making a sandwich’.

"It’s half past three in the morning.

"He says, ‘I woke up and I couldn’t get back to sleep – I’m hungry and I didn’t have food in the fridge.’”

He added: "I said to him, ‘How did you manage to get in?’

"He says, ‘Remember about three or four weeks you, you told your missus you were leaving a key for her underneath the oak tree…’

"I said, ‘It’s only Gazza – he’s making a sandwich’.

"It was madness on a regular basis. Never a dull moment!"
