good times, great times, tea drinking, biscuit stealing, songwriting, singing, playing a bit of guitar, collecting strange instruments that I never find a use for but haven't the heart to throw away, english literary studies and creative & media writing at middlesex university, the climbing and falling out of trees, sound design, sonic arts, darts, pool, the mucky pup, the golden heart, blokes what are renowned, the gunners, shouting "BEEEEEEEEEEEEAST" when Julio Baptista gets the ball, shouting "MOOOOOOOONDOG" at gigs, my friends, being silly, pro-evo, super mario, cakes, curries, the light breakfast in Leo's N16, long train rides, dancing like Mick Jagger, happy times in the smoky Highway, renowned times at The Pigeon, winding Kieron up by telling him that he's going grey, going for an afternoon swim, singing ABC songs with the trademark Fry growl, a nice pint of Guinness, the shuttle bus from Oakwood to Trent Park, playing shows, putting on french/scouse accents, the endless stories of Terry Swain, reading the morning papers, midnight magners', scoring nine goals that time at the 5-a-side and all of them being corkers.
