Memey-ness?

by Rob Mason ~ February 26th, 2008

Not sure Memey-ness is a word, but if Jack P thinks it is then that’s good enough for me. :) Anyway, I think I am a random person in relation to Jack never having actually met him in real life, so here goes. Six (updated: now six, thanks Jack) random and totally unimportant things about me:

  1. I’m wearing grey socks right now with orange toes and heals
  2. I have a freebie Mr Benn DVD on my desk right now
  3. My hair is blonde
  4. I have a pair of very feminine wellingtons in the boot of my car

  6. I have a BA Baracus / A Team van on my key ring

Beat that suckas!
