Hi i'm Nick, my friends call me Bird , family call me nick and the people at Reader's Digest called me Mrs. N. G. Riffin(!?!). Most recently following an after work couple of drinks I was christened with the new name AbGrab which is a hybrid of Abraham and Graeme, pretty much because we were discussing what names we look like we should have and with me it was either Abraham (because they reckon I look like Lincoln) or Graeme (which suits me because I could grow Graeme Garden sideburns).
Until recently I was a media student but dropped out as the Dissertation processes bored the hell out of me. Fully intend to go back. Eventually. In the mean time I'm a barman at a pub and generally sitting down and getting on with life, ultimate ambition would be to run my own pub which was bar orientated with plenty of live music. Generally I see myself as a laid back guy who enjoys himself (others may argue otherwise though). It'd be fair to say I do have a slightly slanted view of the world and tend to come up with really silly ideas and concepts.Almost God:
