Great post Alan, some fascinating facts (I use that term very loosely!!!) 1. I won a national singing competition when I was 8 2. Was arrested for Drunk & Incapable and whilst in cell was repeatedly banging door shouting "I know my rights, I watch the Bill" 3. After winning a pool tourney in my local, I celebrated later by consumating the same table with the barmaid. ( after closing off course!!!) Posted by kaymac
Hahaha I too was arrested for Drunk & Incapable. £50 fine. I was sick all over the police and their van! :-D
1. I have been attacked by a flock of Sparrows (they stole my Big Mac from me at a train station!) 2. I wrote my car off by driving into next door neighbours Car & house 3 days before my driving test. 3. I nearly drowned on holiday in Greece but was saved by a German in his speedos.

1. While I was a 6th form student I took a part-time job filling up peoples cars in a small rural petrol station. One thing lead to another, by the time I reached 30 I was a self-employed Esso franchisee running two modern filling stations, I employed 30 people and had a turnover of over £20million per annum. Three years later I packed it in and became a humble milkman.
2. My other hobby is metal detecting. I used to get fed up with people on my local beach interrupting me to ask questions like 'what are you looking for?' and 'do you ever find anything?'. So one afternoon, to give me an easy 'look me up on Youtube' answer, I recorded a video of my finds and put it online. It was made in one take with no script and no rehearsal. To my amazement my video became quite popular and started to get views from all around the world. I've recorded 3 more since, between them they currently average 700 views per day, the total number of views so far is over 350,000. They also bring me in a small monthly income from Google for advertising revenue.
3. I too once found myself the wrong side of the law (seems to be a common theme here!), I was sentenced to 200 hours of community service.
1) I have Cerebral Palsy and operate the computer with my feet. Have never played a live tourney, have such poor muscle control I'd be bouncing up and down whenever I got a good hand! (that is if I could ever pick the cards up!) lol 2) My entire school went for tea with Mrs Thatcher at Number 10 (no milk but very nice cakes!) 3) I owned an art gallery in the Second Life virtual world. Took photos of people and landscapes in Second Life, applied effects in PhotoShop and then sold the pictures to customers to put on the walls of their virtual homes. Have made more money in Online Poker though but not a fortune in either!
