Hi, I guess I should tell you all a little bit about myself. A good friend once described me, as the most responsible irresponsible person he has ever known, but then I've also been described as a conundrum, a paradox & even practical. I shall leave it to you to make your own mind up, as you read on, & take a small glimpse into what is my world…
 

Humour

I like to think that I have a very good sense of humour, a little on the dark side perhaps. I spent my informative childhood years listening to & watching the likes of Tony Hancock, The Goodies, Monty Python, Jasper Carrot (before he became shite), & later on, Not The Nine O'clock News. A couple of US sitcoms also spring to mind, WKRP in Cincinnati & Soap. At the moment I really enjoy the political satire of Have I Got News For You & Drop The Dead Donkey, the dark humour of Six Feet Under, the true to life tales from Billy Connolly, & of course I do enjoy Friends & The Simpson's. My comic strip humour comes from the likes of, The Far Side, Calvin & Hobbes, Garfield & Doonesbury. I would like to point out, that I found The Office & Lee Evans to be just awful beyond words. This is not a complete list of my comedy likes & dislikes, both have far to many to list here, but you can get the general idea.
 

Ridiculous Things I Have Done

To be fair, some of these should be put down to not knowing any better. Like these times when I was living in Singapore, once I took some time out to go collecting with my blue bucket, only to return to find that my mother really didn’t appreciate the fine collection of highly poisonous bootlace snakes that I returned with, or the time I was found stood with my toes over the edge & looking down from the roof of our thirteen story flat complex. I should point out that I was only three at the time, so perhaps you can see a pattern of no parental control starting here.

Around the time the Berlin Wall was starting to come down, I was sent on a five-week training course with a small electronics company in Hamburg. On one of the free weekends the guys took a vote, borrowed a company pool car & we took off to Berlin. Our first port of call once we got there was a bar of course (OK we visited a lot), after a few beers, it was decided that we should take a look at the infamous “Wall”. We did the usual tourist thing for the time, buying small bits of the wall as they were being chipped off, then I came up with an idea for a great photo opportunity, so the guys gave me a boost up, I climbed up onto the wall, & then proceeded to dance around, much to the amusement of the crowed that had stopped to watch, but not to the East German boarder guards, who then proceeded to chase me (in my very drunken state) along the wall. I was soon caught & escorted back from the east to the west.
