Dutch went to the Chasing Amy do from Canberra, Oz, and spent a number of fun filled months over there.
Quite a few people have gone there from the UK too, including me, though I had to have my hand held by the_guy, b.buster and boyd... though, hold on, that's three people and I only have two hands... hell, what in Buddha's posing pouch was the third fella holding?
Anyhow, I got to meet Vincent who was and is a complete star. Charming, smart, tall and studly, he made me look like a socially inept munchkin. I have nothing but praise for the man.
Anyhow, one question... what gameshow did you win that money on? And can I have some of it? Doesn't hurt to ask, unless you know me and own a cricket bat with a breeze block tied to it.
