That is a tough question sporto
I am proudest i guess of making a decentish living out of bar work. Everyone told me i was a spoon for putting the hours in, and that it would come to nothing, and all that, but now I have a fairly decent salary enjoy my work, and to be honest, do very little work in relative terms.
Outside of work, probably buying my first house, and making it my own. lots of graft went in to making it a nice place for me and windypigirl.

alt: Me, and my brother, sledging i Shotover park in oxford. It might be that due to this snow that this memory is prevalent, but it is a great memory.

Can you help me out with a music round for tonights quiz? I need a decent theme.

Warm Leatherette.
Covered by Grace Jones, originally done by The Normal. Or is that a bit obscure?
Natalie Imbruglwhatsit's 'Torn' was also a cover.

the headline just said:

RIPPED OFF
