About me: I live in East London and was a skinhead for time. These days I still follow London's top sound - Tighten Up. I listen to way too much reggae and am also a chronic scribbler. I write poems and am on tour doing readings a lot, mostly in the US. I edit a poetry 'zine which, I'm happy to say, has the best bad reputation in poetry.
I'm a 'business consultant' and find that pubs get 'er done.

Hello. I don't really know what I'm doing. I feel like an OAP trying to send an email. Where will this message end up? What's going on? You like that photo, don't you? Our MySpace tag line makes even more sense now. p.s. thanks for being my friend
Tim!!!! Thanks so much for finding time to have a pint with me on my short trip to your island. I always enjoy whatever time we spend, and I'm ACTUALLY starting to understand you! I give it another year or so and I'll get most of your jokes! I hope your toe is better! : )
