    Attention-Whoring

    I'm back.

    Hopefully there are those that remember me still. I recall childish signatures and such by myself promoting/boasting of my then newly acquired broadband (and then getting my fire ****ed in by Neil and Marc :>). I used to post a bit under 2 years ago fairly regularly before turning stopping due to various reasons, from coursework issues(which i never really did much on anyway:/) to waning interest in cricket. But admittedly, with the summer season and a slap-tastic msn conversation with many of the regulars(well, I assume they're regulars), I've been tempted back :o.

    i've grown a tad more matured in many ways, experienced far too many life-troubling issues and in the middle of my gcse's (which I really should start revising for.) Etc etc

    So,

    hi!

    Ah exams, driving people back to CW!

    Anyone want to join the Society?

    Beware the evils of Kit-Kats - they're immoral apparently.

    - As featured in The Independent.

    "This is not the time for namby-pamby promising youngsters who might just do something; not the time for building for the future. Pragmatism rules and they don't come more pragmatic than Rogers."
    - Victor Marks makes the case for stiff-legged and stiff-armed 35 year old left-handers in Ashes squads
