Tessy has invited me to reveal six random things about myself, so here goes:

1. When I was very young, I wanted to be a tap dancer. Just like Fred Astaire.
2. I have, at one time in my life, had my hand in a cheetah's mouth. No, really.
   
3. Whilst looking for my friends, I once wandered through security lines at a Leicester Square premiere and accidentally met Paul McCartney, who was very confused by my presence there.
4. I grew a beard in 2002, at the Japan World Cup, because (a) I could, and (b) most of the Japanese couldn't.
5. I'm a West Ham fan, because Trevor Brooking is my mum's cousin.
   
6. I have conducted a 30-strong Christmas choir in Trafalgar Square, in front of around a hundred people. Unprompted. Whilst drunk.
   

So there you go. I'd like to invite Dougald, Anthony, Paul, Mary and School of Everything to do the same, if they'd like to. (And nice one David, loving the hair...)
