About me: Some people call me the space cowboy- others just call me a twat. The latter is more appropriate I guess.
I was the world's greatest jaywalker- but I've lost my talent.
I have too many ambitions but not enough focus, motivation, talent or confidence.
I am the all time greatest Commodore Amiga version of kick Off II player of ALL TIME!
I am useless at shuffling and dealing cards, folding clothes, writing messages on greeting cards, playing darts and introducing people.
I eat fast- real fast, but curtail my speed when in the company of others.
I have a fear of Mayonnaise and doing the hug/kiss thing to acquaintances (referred to by my friends as the 'frozen' or 'cold' hold) but I overcame my fear of having my haircut.
I invented the concept of 'Fizzy Cheese' , 'The Yo Yo Phone' 'Tea Croutons' and the hand shaped multi vibrating adult sex toy 'The Hand Solo'.
I love it when bus drivers wave to each other when they pass in their vehicles and when the film's title is mentioned during the film (a la Full Metal Jacket).
I am a sun cream Nazi.
I ballsed up my Confirmation- at the time the significance of religious commitment confused and flustered me.
I co-created the sport of 'Footis'.
My greatest achievements in my life thus far have been getting away with my beard cultivation for nearly four years, having a girlfriend for nearly ten years without her killing/maiming/leaving me and being able to balance a chair on two legs for an implausible length of time.
I like Lent.
I often think without speaking and speak without thinking- but never do both at the same time.
I will in all probability spill your drink on you (accidentally of course).
I currently reside in the city of Liverpool, although I originally hail from the idyllic landscapes of North Yorkshire where I was born under a wondering star and raised by a family of malcontent Otters (alas the latter may not be true.)
Hi friendly folks, as you may be aware I have made SO much money filling out surveys that I’m now ready to retire to my modest ranch in Guam, where I plan on spending the rest of my days as a louche gentleman of leisure. Here - thanks to the boundless riches generated by this unbelievable offer! – I will raise chickens and goats, subsist on the produce of my bountiful land, play Buckaroo and Battleships with my millionaire friends, form a midget theatre troop to re-enact scenes from classic B-movies entirely for my own amusement, teach deaf children to waterski, build an elaborate scale model version of Tokyo so that I can stamp around and pretend to be Gojira, bankroll leftist insurgencies, write memoirs of no discernable value or merit to anyone and generally have a jolly good time in my ideal idle idyll, until I succumb to the inevitable heart attach or overdose.
Aw nuts…I’ll come clean. I’m not really living the dream. It seems my profile got hacked and I’ve been inadvertently sending out spam. I’ve changed my password and hopefully this rubbish will go away. Apologies for clogging up your comments with nonsense (although I guess there is no change there!) and thanks to everyone who alerted me to it.
were you the one asking me how i make a lot of money on the internet?
If you were, all i do is fill out these surveys
that companies send to my email daily. they then
pay me between $25-125. it takes about 20 mins to
complete each survey.everyone always asks me why
they have to pay money to get started up, but once
they join they realize how important the site below
really is. they filter out companies that don't
really pay you to take surveys, so basically
you will ALWAYS get paid because they test out
the company first.I mean, come on, you fill
out surveys all day on MySpace for free...
why not get paid for it? you can check
out the site im talking about below:
Ok thats it. If you dont reply im going to relegate you off my top list, and replace you with that chick from the pussycat dolls. I know you dont want that macca. Do you?
When did you go to prague and where was my invite you sucker!!
Hey we might be coming through to liverpool this summer if all goes well. How much room have you got so i can plan numbers. N' i dont sleep on couches so you will have to give up your bed.
I have of late, but wherefore I know not,
lost all my mirth. and indeed it goes so heavily
with my disposition...
...that this goodly frame the earth...seems to me a sterile promontory.
It's a most excellent canopy, the air.
Look you, this brave,o'er hanging firmament.
This majestical roof, fretted with golden fire.
Why, it appeareth nothing to me... but a foul and pestilent
congregation of vapors.
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason,
how infinite in faculties, how like an angel in apprehension.
How like a god!
The beauty of the world:
Paragon of animals:
Yet to me, what is
this quintessence of dust?
Man delights not me. No, nor women neither.
...Nor women neither.
Hahah of course see you christmas eve, i need your backup to abuse nohope :D I have a shitty memory so if i do forget ring or text me!! I will be out anyhow and in harrogate. See you then boss. Looking forward to it :D I owe you half a pint remember for the passport fiasco :p
Thanks for the picture matt... Very, very funny... certainly didn't have me shedding a teary drop of sentiment from the old minced pies. Aye, Bootle.... what a shithole... Happy Christmas to you too mate - have good fun and stay in touch in 2007
Steves stag do next weekend, im really looking forward to it, we are going to newcastle so should be fun. Im going to get measured up today for a suit for his wedding, bet i get a dodgy guy with the tape measure 0.o
P.S Dude i love your music on this page, its so relaxing!! At first i thought it was just plain wierd but now i love it. It makes me fall asleep though some.... **snore**
There's more than just *NSync on that bad boy - there's also Paris Hilton, Spice girls, Backstreet Boys, oh yeah and then there's loads of really brutal straight edge hardcore. Judge, Gorilla Biscuits, Proclamation, Betgrayed etc etc... The scallys wouldn't have know what to do when confronted with that library of music. Except cry probably...! Lol!
