Have you met George W. Bush?

Outgoing US president George Bush

Outgoing US President George Bush hands over to Barack Obama on 20 January, 2009, bringing to an end his eight-year run in the White House.

Earlier this year, Mr Bush embarked on a farewell tour taking in countries including Senegal, South Africa, Nigeria, Israel, Saudi Arabia, France and the UK.

BBC News would like to hear from people who have met the 43rd president, or saw him on one of his visits.

What is he like in person? Have you met him by chance? Has he visited your home town? What is he like away from the public eye?
