There's not much to know about me.Like William Blake, I have no external life.

I am a Christian, I suffer from chronic anticipatory anxiety,  my favourite novelists are Scott and Turgenev.  I am an authority on the History of Crewe Station, and in January 2004 I rebuilt a wall (flemish bond) having never previously put one brick on top of another .

So pretty boring to outsiders ,I'm afraid.

When I was 5, I fired bat pellets from the back of my toy Batmobile at Harold Wilson.


(and smittims that wasn't remotely boring, quite intriguing actually)

At a dinner party 11 years ago, a slightly tipsy and giggly Cherie Blair tried to mop up the red wine she'd spilled on my white jeans, using a Pampers nappy.

Cherie Blair has never tried to mop up red wine from my white jeans using a Pampers nappy. In fact, I have never possessed a pair of white jeans. Jeez, I live a sheltered life.  Grin

Well, as my avatar may have given away, I am something of an amateur lichenologist - an interest I discovered while taking part in an archaeological survey (another interest of mine) in woodland in the West of Scotland a few years ago, and having my curiosity aroused by seeing spectacular lichen flora growing from the trees.  The fascination has grown from there.

Oh, I`ve just remembered that I once had a close encounter with Gary Linneker`s legs. On a purely professional basis I might add.  Ahem.

You boy, stop tittering at the back!

I can write in English Tengwar (on occasion).

I have written a poem in English Tengwar, though I have no idea where it is.
Myfanwy Piper once gave me a lesson on dramatic form on her beautiful farm.
I once played an important role as a sheep at the Edinburgh Fringe (we were performing a version of the Odyssey in Mr Zippo's Big Top on the Meadows).
I have two webbed toes and my thumbs are alarmingly double jointed.

I used to dig on archaeology digs as well and was a member of the SHAHT - Surrey Heath Archeological and Heritage Trust.

At a dinner party 11 years ago, a slightly tipsy and giggly Cherie Blair tried to mop up the red wine she'd spilled on my white jeans, using a Pampers nappy.

Gosh! Shocked  My only encounter with Cherie Blair was having my flesh pressed by her and her hubby on their triumphal progress into Downing Street in 1997. You can see me, fleetingly, on the telly footage looking a bit surprised. No fluids were spilt or exchanged on this occasion. I think they assumed we were part of the choreographed Labour HQ rent-a-crowd who had been bussed in for the occasion and not, as we actually were, shifty Cabinet Office types who were hanging about by the dustbins because we didn't have much else to do until 'TB' told us what it was. 

I've had my hair parted by a burst of SAS bullets after being told to sit very still for reasons which weren't explained in advance. Can I have points for that? It wasn't just fluids that nearly caused trouser problems on that occasion.

Gosh!

I think you're well ahead on the point-scoring with that, George.

I haven't myself met the Blairs, which is just as well I think, although my Uncle Barry



certainly has, having been a Labour MP between 1970 and 2001 before taking a seat in TOP.
