Back in the mists of time
I used to read and post on popbitch. There was often a mention of another place, so I came to have a look. It was ok, but as I had nothing to say and no access to picture-making programmes at work, I didn't bother to register. When the appeal for cash to keep the site running came along I decided to give Rob a tenner as I enjoyed the site; so I registered to get a furtive icon.

Initially I was going to use my popbitch log in, but just in case I ever needed to remain anonymous over there, I thought I'd just use my real name. Some fuck had taken 'matt' as a username, so, I added the 'new_' prefix. Years later I checked, the original 'matt' had changed his user name and someone else had stolen it. So, 'matt' is #3000 or something which makes me look a cock.

Over the years I was massively excited to use my limited brains, skills and creativity to release crap to the masses. The Sweary Fingers page was my favourite, Diana's Circle still gets mail six years later, the licky monkey to the Johnny Briggs theme tune still makes me chuckle. And if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't own 5318008.co.uk.

I am still a newbie though.
