Ex-Tabula Rasa
I shall try to define myself in a sentence with a pithy comment at the end:
I'm just an English bloke who lives in Canada after marrying a Canadian lady he met while living in Japan. Yeah, that old cliché.
Shameless Self-Promotion:
My utterly hilarious blog is here
And another one is here
Wow! I'm on Twitter now!
Averaging three stars a tweet since the death of Favrd!
Still Want More?

“Taylor also telegrammed Real Madrid, to ask if Ferenc Puskas might be available. The Hungarian was still playing with some success at 40, having been among the competition’s top scorers as Madrid won the 1966 European Cup, and had no conceivable reason to put himself out to help a community centre in Garston. A few days later Taylor received his response, in the shape of a telegram which read: “All I wait is you send me plane ticket.” Ferenc Puskas, one of the greatest footballers in the history of the game, star and captain of perhaps the finest ever international side, three-times European Cup winner and five times a finalist, was coming to South Liverpool FC.”
— Wonderful article in today’s Guardian about Ferenc Puskas, the brilliant Hungarian football player, agreeing to take part in a charity match in a deprived area of Liverpool.
