Favorite Food(s): Dimsum, Sausages by the bucketload
Favorite Color(s):Orange, Purple

Favorite TV show(s):umm....don't really watch that much TV...Top Gear, Scrapheap Challenge, Grand Designs.

For those of you in Leeds, if a short guy who looks about 12 (i got IDd in a bar at new years, then the barmaid thought my driving licence was fake!!) turns up, that'll be me.

I didn't know they checked ID's in the UK. I figured that if you were old enough that your voice had broken, they didn't care.

they don't check id like they do in the states, but some places do if you look younger than 18/21. more places are starting to clamp down on it now though since the government has started pushing 'rule 21' (which is actually really old bit of law and quite confusing)
