Well I guess it's OK to look now then (and no I hadn't peeked), Jamie did the honors this evening in Soho, was just about to take the P*ss when I realised he was talking about me, it was a genuine surprise as I thought this was a winde up thread to be honest.
It's been a rough old year one way or another and aiming for the AE was one of the things that I WAS going to achive, might not have seemed as if I was having fun, but in relation to the rest of my life then, it was bliss.
quite humbling as I can't see what I've done to deserve it, it's just me and how I am, but anyway for all those involved in this and everyone who made the AE such a wonderful time I thank you.
a most appropriate gift to nice to use almost but I expect to use it with frequency.
You lot are a real nice bunch of guys & girls*
Cheers Mark
