From Punk to Businessman man I like it, Dig the Leathers

I remember saying once, back in those "leather days", that you'd never get me to wear a suit .

Apollo62:

Very amusing. I also thought your appearance in your earlier photo resembled Billy Idol just a little too much. :-)

As for a snippet of unknown information about me, I'll offer a few.

1. In the 1980s, I was a competitive rollerskater (not at any kind of high level). I stopped skating in 1986.

2. I met one of the astronauts (Al Warden) from the Apollo 15 mission when the crew was visiting Australia in 1985.

3. I didn't begin to talk until I was three or so, and I'm told that my first words were "There's a full moon out tonight". I guess "goo goo, gah gah" wasn't my thing.

Come on you lot, lets see some real secrets, I have a few from my teenage years, I don't want to share them yet due to the fact that you will think i am sick.
Its all in the past as far as i am concerned so lets SEE some good ones.
OK me first. I once cleaned my butt with my mates tooth brush

I saw a Billy Idol gig after consuming some strange substances, and still didn't enjoy it! (The gig that is)
And Apollo62, you should have kept the ear ring, reckon it would go with the suit.

Well I still have the holes in my ear where I pierced it with a safety pin and eased the pain with a piece of frozen fish.

I participated in a rather unusual sport until my mid 40's and for ten years was consistantly ranked in the top 3 at the world championships including 2 wins. My teenage son also won 2 world championships following my retirement.

The sport demanded physical strength but more importantly, technique.

The world championships were held in both Australia and the USA but this sport was originally developed in Australia rather than the land of wacky world championships.

Don't even try to guess as you would be wrong.

I may well have been on a rink against you. I competed in both speed and dance (a great way for a teenage boy to get his hands on teenage girls).

Other than that during the 80's, next to my album collection of cold chisel, midnight oil and hoodoo gurus was a Spandau Ballet album.

I used to feel quite sorry for poor old Neil but that's what he got for being a filthy, lazy hippie bastard
