| Favourite Gig Ever |
The Stranglers at Hammersmith Palais, 1981. We bunked off school to get tickets, queued for 3 hours to get in the front row in front of JJB's bass stack, spat at the French support group, and the gig was ******* excellent (oops, got carried away there) |
| Highlight Of Musical Career |
Playing live on The Gloria Hunniford Show on BBC1 (not the PFJ obviously) |
| Worst Moment Of Musical Career |
An early 80s group called Bandana - first live gig was recorded and shown on BBC2 - my first 4 notes played were all 'bum' |

Getting the call asking us to headline the first night of Reading Beer Festival |

'Roadying' for the some of the other members of the PFJ "because they have bad backs" |

| Most Drunk Ever |
Probably the time in 1990 I was admitted to A&E at Reading General at 1pm on a Saturday afternoon following a "gentleman's challenge" that started at 11am. I discharged myself before they brought the stomach pump out |
| Favourite Film (Not Including The Life Of Brian) |
Dawn of the Dead/Aliens/Withnail & I/Grosse Point Blank |
| Favourite Scene From The Life Of Brian |
The "Romanes Ite Domum" scene where the Centurion (John Cleese - ex-school-teacher!) draws the sword on Brian when he cannot define the verb "to go". (It reminds me of when I learned Latin at School) |

The Simpsons (probably the best TV programme ever made) although Family Guy is getting pretty close |

'Ninja' - Eric Van Lustbader |
| Pastimes |
Eating in expensive restaurants/flamenco dancing/drinking/sleeping/watching TV and films/going to concerts/playing guitars/floatation tanks (not since 'the incident' at Pulse 8 - details on application)/grinning |
| If I wasn't in The PFJ I'd be |
not reading this |
| If I won the lottery I would |
be dead within three months, but what a way to go |
| How much do I hate the Romans |
Not as much as I used to, I mean, look at what they've given us |
60's - 70's - 80's - 90's
