I am a Scot wandering cyberspace with only my spidey-sense to protect me from evil viruses and hackers. I left home 17 years ago to persue a career in taxidermy only to find it unrewarding and underpaid. After a further 12 years as King Carlos of Spain's tennis coach I found love in a small shanty town in Quebec. Not being sure whose it was I thought it best to put it back where I found it and join the Paraguayan navy as a first mate. I sailed home after an unfortunate incident involving chili sauce and hair gel and I am now David Beckham's personal shopper and seamstress.
How come I'm never one of those 'Cool new people'?...umm....don't answer that.

Again iTunes?

For some reason the free iTunes 'single of the week' has recently been something you'd actually want to listen to more than once and not just delete it once you'd heard how pants it was. Last month th...

Yes to Democracy, No to Guns

Fiji really is a wonderful place. Not only is it the idyllic location for that proverbial tropical island holiday, but the people are genuinely friendly. Not friendly like Glaswegians are supposed to ...

Sur-prize-ing!

I went sailing last weekend and I took some pictures. The weather was near perfect (so I was told) and I had a great time. It was very relaxing floating about on the water although I did feel a bit se...

Phew...I passed!!

You scored as Reformed Evangelical. You are a Reformed Evangelical. You take the Bible very seriously because it is God's Word. You most likely hold to TULIP and are sceptical about the possibilities...
