Where those fullas carved a big white horse into the hillside. And even a penis or two apparently. I think Ed might have been responsible for some of that awful graffiti myself...

Yorkshire I think that is.
You better slag Ed off while you still can, don't the Ashes start soon

And he's full of anti-oxidents.

No Westbury I believe, in or near Wiltshire. I'm not up on my places of England. Ed did tell me, so my apologies Ed for letting it slip from my mind so soon. As for the Ashes...As part of that song goes..."I don't like Cricket Mon...". Unlike most typical Australians (and me being a first generation Aussie, and so not really the best example...I'm a Taff, but don't tell Ed that ), I haven't assimilated the fanaticism for all things sporting...Having said that, I am a Taff, so there is no way in hell they are going to get their grubby pommy paws on the Ashes .

I don't pretend to understand cricket myself. Isn't it just rounders for posh people?

I think I am full of anti-anti- oxidants.

Ok, I was born to a mother from north London, barnet to be precise, and a father from cork. I am a bastard child being that I was born out of wedlock. My father is a priest, so was unavailable to me, and subsequently I have had little interest in knowing him, we met in London when I was 19.
I was born in barnet, then moved around the south of England a bit, we eventually settled in pinner for some time.
We moved to a town called aspull, just outside Wigan, where we lived for some years.
When I was about 12 or so we moved again to cirencester, where I lived until I was about 21 at this time.I moved to uxbridge with my then girlfriend, we eventually split up, so I moved to cranford, which is neT Heathrow. I met my current wife in Camden, and after moving around London to a few places we settled into a place in stoke Newington.
In 2006 we moved to australia, we landed in brissie then drove round the south coast to Perth where we now live.
I think that should cover it.

Personally I like Red Rover and Brandy tag, but I don't suppose you know those games either. Used to play them as a kid...Right boyos, I'm off for now. Wifey is working from home and needs the computer. I'm going back to my sick bed. See youse all a bit later.
