I am here for Friends

About Me


Tell you what, this is a bit overdue isn't it?
My name is not Andy Crane, but I wish it was.
I reckon I've met most people on my friends list now, so I might not be putting anything over the top here. Having said that, it's inevitable that I'm different things to dfferent people, are Disco Si and Simon Valour terribly different from each other? I like to think not. I'm opinionated but liberal as anything with it, I'll argue for what I think only until I'm given a truly sensible alternative, I like to think I'm thoughtful about my opinions though, so they don't change very often. Shouting FOR SPARTA before doing anything makes me feel cool as fuck, so does wearing sunglasses inside.
I'm living in Leeds now, doing University, and it turns out I'm a bit alright at it, and I like a broadsheet. I'm still too northern for Welwyn Garden City.
You all know this, but I'm a wrestler based in the north west, I'm well dreadful, I don't do much apart from hitting people dead hard. I'm still getting the inSI~~ Cradle over though, just you watch.
The fact is, I work because I'm unintimidating and approachable enough to balance with being a big lad, this works well in REAL LIFE and in WRESTLING as well.
Who's Johnny Brannigan though? a

Attention Young people.

Just because you CAN grow a beard doesn't mean you SHOULD grow a beard.

My favorite genre of Music.

My favorite genre of music is probably experimental/grunge/powerpop. If anyone knows what this entails exactly, please let me know.
