This is the page where you get to meet the real me...

You may not want my life story but TOUGH your goning to have it anyway...
 
I lived in Northampton until I was 10 (Year 5). I attended Milton Malsor Parochial Primary School. At the ages of  7, I joined the Northampton Old Scouts Rugby Football Club with encouragement from Joe Ryan a friend from school. I ended up enjoying it and played Rugby for N.O.S.R.F.C, travelling from Peterborough for nearly 4 years every Sunday Morning until I moved down to Wiltshire.
 
At the end of Year 5 I moved over to Peterborough where I spent a lonely summer holidays, becuase no one knew me, in my new house ( I was starting to make friends with the spiders and woodlice that in habbited the garden.
 
In September I joined Folksworth C of E  Primary School where i met one of my closest friends Kurt 'Protein Makes You Grow, Malton. The head teacher of that school was a sexist slag, who hated sports. We didn't get on too well.
 
After that i went with my friends from Folksworth to Sawtry Community College where i spent three years getting in to minor trouble for things like throwing grapes around on the top floor of the bus and swearing out of bus windows to teachers (in fact the bus was where i got into th most trouble especialy the time when a Maxwell House coffee jar found itself under the bus wheel as i got off.
 
3/4 of the way through Year 9 i moved down to Wiltshire i cant remember the exact day apart from it was the Friday when England lost 2-0 to Brazil in a crappy game of football. That was my first moring in Wiltshire. The following Monday i turned up at St Johns School, Marlborough. As there were only 3 weeks to go from the end of term i did whati had been doing for the last two years about a month from the end of term which was not bother to bring my books in to do any work.
 
We had to do this thing called Technology Week where you chose something to do. There were some good things like Go Karting and Archery but as I'd only just arrived I was stuck with this shit thing i cant even remember. Lucky though I met another of my closest friends Ali 'Beat Box' Hetherington. It was only then i learned that he got on the same bus as me so until i moved to again to Calne 12 miles away we shard some wonderful insights ont he the Ogbourne Bus.
 
The Ogbourne Bus was the first place on about my third day at the school that i saw Lauren Clake. She has a bright, generous and unassuming personality nad a great smile. I was wondering which Year she was in and it just so happened that she was in the same Year as me. However I couldn't find the courage in me to ask her out and so i spent the next two and a bit years just acting like i didn't really fancy anyone ( which i might add completly fool everyone and it nearly backfired on me when, after being told that she 'liked' me, i just keep a stone face and offered a non commital grunt like this 'umph'). However this February i asked her out and all is well in the world...
 
Until a thing called GCSE examinations came from out of nowher and kicked me in the balls. We'll have to see where that end up.
 
I have forgotten to meantion that during the second half of year ten a boys with a mop or nest of hair (i can never quite decide) turned up at st johns from dauntsey's poshg school for rich people. Twas Jack 'Silvermole; Jack Black Jimmy' Somerville. he and i beat the shit out of each other when we first met  and i lost an arm
 
 
Now though it is the 9/10/04 and things have changed again.
 
i was dumped at the prom night, after wininnig couple of the year award, for a tall, dark handsome stranger with a harley 
 
i got a good set of results 7A's 3B's and a C which enabled me to start as level geography chemistry physics and maths (nice and easy)
kurt is all set to come down to wiltshrei and we shall be having a nice session at someone's house probably jacks becuase hes got loadds a room and we have written three songs

I might also include some information about my personal history: where I grew up, where I went to school, various places I've lived. If I have one, I'll include a picture of myself engaging in an activity I enjoy, such as a sport or hobby.
