About Me

I'm a funny guy (funny ha ha, not funny Hmmm!) Hanging out with my beautiful girlfriend Emily, on our balcony on sunny days is what I like best. If not that, then I skate when I can, and drink a little less frequently than I used to. I've been skating for bloody ages. I don't bounce off the floor as well as I used to. The bruises and aches take longer to go away, and I'll be wheel chair bound by the time I'm 35 the way I'm going. Beats sitting on my arse though. Tuesdays, I'll be out skating, religously(ish), 9pm outside WHSmiths. TUESDAY CREW FOREVER.Humour is my weapon of choice.

Slight amendment to 'Nugget of Knowledge No. 2'

I realise now that I was being hasty with my catagorisation of vertically challenged persons. Obviously not anything under 4foot 10inches is a midget, that would be ridiculous. Babies for example, Cat...
