He likes watching old episodes of Bullseye and finished runners up on the Krypton Factor.
I got to write a 3000 word essay on Topophila in his 4th year Sociology class so wrote about the feelings and emotions brought on by attending a dons game at Pittodrie in my 4th year Sociology. Classes were mainly football chat with the odd discussion around shopping centres and how they disorient us and pump smells in to keep us there.....think Vegas hotels and trying to find your way oot! Any volunteers on " Ibrox; a counteraction to Topophila"Quote:

One of his sociologist pals, Gary Armstrong I think it was, a Sheffield United fan came up quite a few times and fair enjoyed his sessions up here.Quote:

It was usually the SeeYouJimmy guy but sometimes the matador or bond figure. He did bear a resemblance but i thought the guys name was Derek? Was there a third brother? Perhaps they were cousins or something their old man or cousin used to restore furniture in a workshop opposite The Jug.Quote:

Only Rich and Kev, they might of had a sister they kept hidden from me but there was only the two loons. Don't know what his old man did but the family home was Westhill. Remember a drunken incident at his flat in printfield involving a knife and a wine bottle that left me scarred for life.Quote:
