There was cheating? :o I wholeheartedly concur about beer and women though, I enjoy both of them. I think I am dying of that swine flu. Sadly I will not be at the Red Well gig this time round. :( And I usually love gorgeously sweaty-ceilinged venues like the Captain's Rest. x

In Norway I went down a proper ski run on a toboggan bought from a petrol station, went a bit too fast, came off and the toboggan ran over my hand with me half on it. The blood in the snow was very dramatic, a bit like the ending of House of Flying Daggers. I think the ice numbed it a bit.
Ironically in my years at the Odeon slaving over hot dog grills I never fell on them once. :)
I read the latest rave reviews. I like the part in the Is This Music? one that describes you as having a "raw but effective tool". What a compliment! :D
My hand got mangled in an alpine incident, I hope I don't need skin grafts. I can see my own bone, and don't know why I find it so funny... I should probably go to hospital. x
