If a giant Velociraptor being ridden by cowboy had burst in and tried to eat you all but thanks to you and your pirate crew everyone was saved, the story would have been much more interesting.

# ok
it's not a very good one.

when we did general studies a-level i was sitting behind my mate sam (his surname begins with J, mine with K, you can see the logic there).

he kept leaning over to the girl next to him and copying her answers on the multiple choice language bit as obviously you only need A, B, C, whatever.

turns out that he was doing that section in French. she was doing it in German. sam scored very poorly surprisingly.

was that worth it? not really.

I had to admit to my wife last night, mainly cos she could come up with dozens of cases of overwhelming evidence, that I am utterly obsessed with ladies' chests...
