I’m still married
I’m still working in London
I’m still messing about with cars and bikes-but I have sold one of the cars and replaced it with a new one!
I have acquired a son who is a 21 year old guitar playing petrolhead who’s working in the same place where I worked when I was his age which is kind of wierd seeing as how I played no part at all in his upbringing!!!!

Still a top notch market researcher, currently research, ironically, mums and babies.
Still live in Harlow.
Been married for 4 years this April.

About it really.

Might be the coolest phrase I’ve heard for a while!

- running a web host
- running a web dev/ IT consultancy
- writing a zine
- running a zine distro
- putting on gigs
- running a gigs listing site

But have gained
- a baby
- a job I really enjoy
- a band that people seem to like (we played Latitude festival FFS, what were they thinking?)

Still married to the ever-tolerant Emma Culture

I play a lot of roller derby & run our league.
I’m on the board of directors of the UK roller derby governing body.
I’m still in Bishop’s Stortford (not without efforts to escape!)
I’m still a Probation Officer (not without efforts to escape).
I went gay for a bit & split up with my awful long-term boyfriend. And now I have a lovely new boyfriend I’m planning a future with.

Really, I’ve not done very much.

Well, I must say it is nice to read such a cheerful post from Welli. Some things evidently do change.

Everything else sounds present and correct! (“Gay for a bit” indeed! Same old Caz.)

Personally, I’ve done a few things. This and that, you know. I’ll tell you about it sometime!

I only really had two things I did anyway, playing in bands and riding motorbikes.

Basically I quit one to concentrate on the other…successfully! :-D (Although I do still mess around with guitars)

Other shit:

Grew my hair and cut my beard
Still don’t smoke or drink
Still independently self employed

To quote a phrase that Easyriders magazine were fond of using-that really is one shit-eating grin :wink: :mrgreen:
