Interview
Handle:
2TUFF
How did you come up with your alias ?
FROM A GANGSTA RAP ALBUM I BOUGHT FROM A FRIEND WHICH HAD A PICTURE
OF THE CREW AND THEIR HANDLES ON THEIR BASEBALL CAPS. I SAW THIS
HARD LOOKING GEEZER WITH *2TUFF* ON HIS CAP AND THOUGHT YEAH KEWL.
THE TROUBLE WAS, WHILST I WAS SUPPLYING SOFTWARE FOR THE AMIGA TO
CRYSTAL AND SUPER NINTENDO TO VARIOUS I HAD A FUCKING MASS OF HANDLES
MOSTLY TO DO WITH GANGSTA HIP-HOP AS THEY SOUND FUCKING DOP AND HARD
HAHA. YOU MIGHT REMEMBER A FEW OF THEM SUCH AS, MR.SCARFACE, BUSHWIK
MUTHAFUCKING BILL, ICE-T, ICE-CUBE(THE 1ST 1), LYRICAL GANGBANG ETC
ETC THE LIST IS ENDLESS AS THE YANKEE BBS SCENE MEMBERS WILL RECALL
AFTER HAVING TO CHANGE MY BBS HANDLE NUMEROUS TIMES HAHA MUCH TO
THEIR MOANS AND GROANS. BUT 2TUFF IS THE REAL LASTER AND EVERYONE
KNOWS OF ME AND IT TEHE!
City / Country:
BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND
Born year:
17TH NOVEMBER 1973
What was your first computer, and when did you get it?
MY FIRST COMPUTER WAS THE COMMODORE 64, AFTER HAVING ONE OF THOSE
CRAPPY 3-IN-1 GRANDSTAND MACHINES (INCIDENTIALLY I STILL HAVE IT
VIRTUALLY BRAND NEW BOXED UNDER MY BED TEHEHE). MY MOTHER BROUGHT
IT ME, AFTER MY ENDLESS MOANS AFTER SEEING MY COUSINS, HIS
GIRLFRIEND MARY HAD JUST BOUGHT HIM.
How did you get into the scene and what groups have you been a member of ?
SHIT IT HAPPENED WAY BACK WITH THE C64, I WAS LIKE ONLY REALLY YOUNG
AND COMING FROM PRIMARY SCHOOL OVER THE WALL FROM THE ONE *POSH* ESTATE
AS WE KNOW IT, TO MY HELL HOLE COUNCIL ESTATE. I STARTED TO WALK OVER
THIS SMALL CAR PARK SPACE WITH GARAGES AND THIS BLOKE STOPPED ME. I
THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO KIDNAP ME OR SOMMIT HAHAHA. HE TOLD ME HE'D
HEARD I HAD A C64 AND WONDERED IF I WOULD LIKE SOME TITLES CHEAP FOR IT.
OF COURSE ME NOT HAVING LOADS OF MONEY AND EASILY BEING ABLE TO GET
DOSH FROM MY MOM IN SMALL AMOUNTS SAID "YEAH". THAT DAY I WENT ROUND
TO HIS HOUSE AND HIS WIFE LET ME IN. SHE OPENED ALL THESE DRAWS FULL
OF CASSETTES OF C64 TITLES NEATLY LABELLED. I CHECKED THE NAMES OF SOME
OF THE GAMES AND WAS AMAZED. AFTER THAT SHE SHOWED ME ALL HIS CRAP
OLD STYLE 5.25" FLOPPIES. HE HAD SOME GROUP WHICH I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT
IT WAS BACK THEN. INCIDENTIALLY HE WENT UNDER THE HANDLE OF *TURBO*
WHICH ITS HARD TO EVER KNOW IF HE MADE IT TO THE MODEM SCENE CAUSE SO
MANY HAD THIS HANDLE! HE USED TO GET THEM FROM VARIOUS PEOPLE WHO HAD
CONTACT WITH THE MODEM SCENE THOUGH. ANYWAY BACK TO THE STORY, THEN
I GOT FURTHER AND FUTHER INTO PIRACY. I FOUND ANOTHER CONTACT CALLED
*KAM* FROM BIRMINGAM HE ALSO HAD CONTACTS AND WAS IN GROUPS SUCH AS
HOTLINE ON THE ATARI S.T WHEN THEY FINALLY CAME OUT LATER ON. WHEN
THE AMIGA CAME OUT I FUCKING LOVED IT FROM WHAT I SAW IN THE AMIGA
AND COMPUTER JOURNALS AT THAT TIME. AFTER A WHILE I BROUGHT MYSELF ONE
IT WAS THE OLD A500 1.2 WITH 1/2MEG MEMORY HAHA AND LOTS OF GURU'S TEHE.
FORTUNATELY KAM DID NOT WIN BY TRYING HIS HARDEST TO GET ME TO BUY AN
ATARI S.T (SHIT TECHNOLOGY HAHA). I WAS STILL GOING TO KAM'S AND
TURBO'S,
BUT THEN KAM PUT ME ONTO A KEWL GUY CALLED CARL ALIAS INFILTRATOR OF
CRYSIS INTERNATIONAL ON THE AMIGA A WELL KNOWN U.K GROUP MOSTLY BASED AS
FAR AS I KNOW OF IN THE U.K IT HAD SOME KEWL GFX ARTISTS, OF WHICH ONE
WAS VERY GOOD THIS ASIAN GEEZER. ANYWAY I STARTED MY OWN LITTLE GROUP
UP WITH A FRIEND WHO OWNED AN ATARI S.T, I CALLED IT POWER DISTRIBUTION.
WE BOTH DID SMALL DISK COMILATIONS, ME FOR DEMOS AND GAMES AND MY
MATE DID JUST GAME ONES. INFACT ON THE ATARI S.T WE DID SOME GOOD ONES
WHICH ALOT OF U.K SCENE MEMBERS RESPECTED HIGHLY. I DID A SHIT LOAD
OF MAIL TRADING AND HAD HUNDREDS OF CONTACTS. I JOINED A COUPLE OF
OTHER KNOWN U.K GROUPS AND THEN I JOINED *CRYPTIC U.K* THESE WERE QUITE
A KEWL RESPECTED BIRMINGHAM BASED DEMO GROUP WITH LOADS OF BRUMMY
MEMBERS SCATTERED EVERYWHERE. I ONLY EVER MET THE LEADER OF CRYPTIC,
THATS WHEN I'D LEFT AND ALONG TIME AFTER, WHEN HE WANTED SUPER NINTENDO
SOFTWARE FROM ME UNTIL HE COPIED ME AND GOT A SNK NEO-GEO HAHA. AFTER
A WHILE I DECIDED TO GET ONTO THE MODEM SCENE, AS I WAS FED UP WITH IT
ALL, I STOPPED GOING TO TURBO'S JUST AS HE BECAME GOOD FRIENDS WITH
SCOOTER OF *THE LADS* IN LIVERPOOL ANOTHER KNOWN U.K LEGENDARY DEMO
GROUP ETC. I WAS IN CONTACT THROUGH MAIL-TRADING WITH A GUY CALLED
MIKE WHO WAS IN BIRMINGHAMS *EXCEL* AND SUPPLIED QUARTEX AND ANOTHER
GROUP. MIKE SOLD ME A 9600 U.S ROBOTICS COURIER HST MODEM AND GAVE
ME A LIST OF BBS'S IN THE U.K AND A COUPLE IN THE STATES. HE ALSO
SHOWED ME HOW TO CC MY CALLS LONG DISTANCE ETC. AFTER GETTING ON A
COUPLE OF BOARDS I STARTED MY OWN UP CALL *BRIGHT STAR BBS* WHEN I
WAS STILL IN CRYPTIC U.K. IT WAS NOTHING MAJOR AND HAD A FEW CALLERS.
AFTER A WHILE I DUMPED IT AND JUST TRADED AS I ONLY HAD ONE LINE AND
MY PARENTS WANTED IT BACK HAHAHA. I JOINED QUITE A FEW GROUPS, SUCH
AS MAYHEM U.K, SHARE & ENJOY ETC, I CANT REMEMBER HALF THEIR NAMES
ANYMORE. I QUIT MY COMPUTER STUDIES COURSE AND WENT ONTO THE
UN-EMPLOYMENT FIGURE, I THEN JOINED I THINK *SCOOPEX* TO BECOME THEIR
U.K SUPPLIER. THAT NIGHT I PHONE UP A BBS I'D BEEN ON FOR AGES CALLED
*DULCET TONES* IN SCOTLAND RUN FOR *CRYSTAL* AND WAS TELLING MY MATE
SCOTT THE SYSOP I HAD JOINED SCOOPEX TO SUPPLY ORIGINALS, HE TOLD ME
IT WAS A WASTE OF TIME THEY WERE NO GOOD AS CRACKERS AND TO JOIN
*CRYSTAL* AS THEIR SUPPLIER HAD LEFT ALONG WITH N.O.M.A.D, ZELNIK
ETC THROUGH A STUPID ARGUMENT WHICH ZELNIK STARTED. I SAID "KEWL"
AND I SORTED OUT WHAT WAS TO DO WITH THEIR OLD SUPPLIER INFILTRATOR
(CARL). I THEN SUPPLIED *cRYSTAL* FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS I THINK IT
WAS EARLY 1991 I STARTED, LETS JUST SAY MY FIRST ORIGINAL WAS
*THUNDERHAWK* FROM CORE DESIGN, WHICH FAIRLIGHT BEAT US ON, DUE TO
ME HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY A500 AND BEING SLIGHTLY LATER BACK WITH
ORIGINAL THAN EXPECTED, ILL GIVE CREDIT TO FAIRLIGHT FOR THAT ONE
AS IT WAS A HARDISH MFM CRACK. OUR FIRST CRACK WITH AN ORIGINAL
SUPPLIED BY ME WAS *RODLAND* IT WAS THE 1ST EVER CRACK TO BE
RELEASED SAME DAY AS THE TITLE CAME OUT AND ON A DINNER TIME.
INFACT WE AT CRYSTAL SHOOK THE SCENE WITH THE SPEED OF THE CRACKS
FOR A LONG TIME. AFTER A LONGISH PERIOD SKID-ROW TRIED TO COMPETE
WITH US, BUT WAS EASILY DESTORYED, THEY STARTED TO USE THE SAME
PLACE I WAS BUT THEIR SUPPLIER HAD TO COME FROM LIVERPOOL AND BACK
WHERE AS I ONLY LIVED ABOUT 4 MILE AWAY FROM WHERE I USED TO GET
THE ORIGINALS. I REMEMBER WHEN MOST THE TITLES INFACT VIRTUALLY ALL
FOR A FUCKING WHILE WERE JUST RELEASED BY *CRYSTAL* AFTER A MASSIVE
LENGTH OF TIME AND RELEASES OTHERS STARTED TO FLOAT AROUND LIKE A
TURD NUGGET ON THE TOP OF THE TOILET WATER, PEOPLE SUCH AS QUARTEX,
MINISTRY/NEMESIS/CLASSIC ETC. THEY WERE ALL GOING WHERE I WAS BUT
WE WERE STILL BEATING THEM ALL TO A MASSIVE PERCENTAGE OF THE GAMES.
EVERYONE KNEW OUR CRACKS WERE VERY RELIABLE AND EVEN WHEN SOME OF
THEM WERE DEFEATED BY A LONG TIME AND THEY THEN DOUBLE RELEASED US
PEOPLE WOULD STILL HAVE OUR VERSION. ONE DAY I WAS AT THE PLACE 1ST
GETTING A SUPERSPRINT TYPE GAME FOR THE AMIGA AND I MET MIKE AND
MUNCHIE ON THE CAR PARK WHEN I CAME OUT AND SOMEONE FROM SKID-ROW
HAD GONE IN FOR IT AS I CAME OUT AND THEN SOMEONE ELSE FROM ANOTHER
GROUP CAME ON A MOTOR-BIKE. IT WAS FUNNY US ALL THERE ROUGHLY THE
SAME TIME. OVER THE YEARS IVE BEEN IN QUITE A FEW ELITE GROUPS
ESPECIALLY ON THE CONSOLE SCENE DUE TO ME GETTING ACCESS TO SOME
REALLY FAST BETA AND FINAL SNES TITLES!! I STARTED A CRYSTAL
DIVISION ON THE SNES AND SUPPLIED A FEW TITLES FOR THEM SUCH AS
I THINK MY BEST RELEASE EVER WHICH WAS *SUPER MICKEY MOUSE* THIS
WAS RELEASED LIKE MONTHS BEFORE THE FINAL AND IT WAS ALL THERE,
INFACT I FOUND SOME GLITCHES IN THE FINAL I HAD NOT GOT IN MY
VERSION, ALOT OF PEOPLE LIKED THAT RELEASE. I SUPPLIED THE
FOLLOWING GROUPS TITLES OVER THE TIME; CRYSTAL, FAIRLIGHT, NAPALM,
SNEAKERS ETC.
ALL I WILL SAY ABOUT ME AND THE SCENE WAS, IT WAS DONE FOR PhUn NOT
LIKE ALL THE OTHER GROUPS AND SUPPLIERS WHO DID IT FOR DOSH. I DID
NOT WANT MONEY OR NOTHING, I ONLY HAD ANY JUST TO COVER MY TRAVELLING
EXPENSES. ALL THESE OTHERS CHARGED THEIR GROUP LEADERS MODEMS AND
MACHINES + MONEY. I ENJOYED BEATING OTHERS TO TITLES AND MAKING
CRYSTAL AS GREAT AS THEY WERE. THE SAME WENT FOR EVERYONE ELSE IN
CRYSTAL. WE SEEMED TO WASTE OUR OWN MONEY OUT OF OUR POCKETS TO
GET ORIGINALS ETC. SCOTT SPENT A FORTUNE OF HIS WAGES ON THE ORIGINALS,
WHICH WE KNEW WE PROBABLY WOULD NOT SELL. INFACT SCOTT HAS A MASSIVE
SHIT LOAD OF THEM STILL IN HIS HOUSE. THIS SHOWS REALLY HOW GOOD
CRYSTAL WAS. ITS A SHAME THOSE DAYS ARE GONE, I WOULD LOVE FOR IT TO
STILL BE THERE, APART FROM THE PHONE BILLS WHEN NOT CC'IN OR BB'IN.
I DID ALSO OCCASIONALLY HACK A FEW TELECOM SYSTEMS, THE MOST OBVIOUS
ONE WAS VMB'S BUT I HACKED A FEW OF MY OWN BLUEBOX'S. I REMEMBER US
NOT HAVING A BOX FOR AGES, AFTER THOSE 2 ASSHOLES DISCLOSED HOW WE
BOXED ON A UK TELEVISION PROGRAM. SO I WAS TOLD BY A GUY WITH HIS
EAR TO THE GROUND THAT CHINA WAS MAYBE BOXABLE. I SERIOUS SAT THERE
FOR AGES HACKING IT AND USED TWO DIALERS MULTITASKING TO DEFEAT THEIR
PRETTY HARD TO CRACK SYSTEM. FINALLY IT GOT OUT BUT MOST ONLY HAD IT
FOR A WEEK MAXIMUM, I HAD IT FOR AROUND 2 MONTHS OR MORE. I ALSO
HACKED A KEWL BB WHEN THE LINES WERE SHIT ON THE OTHER AVAILABLE ONES.
What groups have you been in/helped, of which you can remember?
Amiga
POWER DIST, MAFIA UK, CRYPTIC U.K, S.A.E, SCOOPEX, LEGEND, CRYSTAL
Snes
CRYSTAL, SNEAKERS, NAPALM, FAIRLIGHT, LEGEND + more
What was the proudest moment in your career ?
WHEN I JOINED *CRYSTAL* AND ESPECIALLY WHEN I SUPPLIED THEIR FIRST CRACK
SUPPLIED BY MYSELF AND CRACKED BY I.B.M. (SEBASTIAN FROM DANMARK) IT
WAS A ROB NORTHERN PROTECTED TITLE CALLED *RODLAND*
For what specific reason(s) do you think that you are remembered and
for what reason(s) would you like to be remember ??
GOSH, QUITE A FEW MANY I GUESS BAD ONES. OVER THE YEARS I GOT ALOT OF
ENEMIES, DUE TO BEING SO FAST AT SUPPLYING. AS WE ALL KNOW IF YOU DONT
JOIN A GROUP WHEN ASKED THEY DONT LIKE IT, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR
DESTROYING THEM AND THEY DONT SEEM A LIGHT AT THE END OF THEIR TUNNEL.
I USED TO ARGUE WITH SHIT LOADS ABOUT VARIOUS THINGS AND WHAT USED TO
PISS ME OFF THE MOST WAS IF THEY SLAGGED CRYSTAL OFF. AFTER ALL THE
EFFORT I AND THE OTHERS PUT IN AND KANING THE OPPOSITION THEY WOULD
HAVE THE NERVE TO SLAG US OFF. PEOPLE LIKE ZELNIK STARTED ALOT OF THE
TROUBLE. HE WAS KICKED OUT OF CRYSTAL FOR SOMMIT AND HE DID NOT LIKE
IT SO HE CAUSED TROUBLE AND GOT N.O.M.A.D, SCROTE, PROTOCOL ETC TO
LEAVE ALSO. HE THEN USED TO MAKE UP THINGS TO SPLIT ME FROM CRYSTAL
CONSTANTLY AND PHONE MY HOUSE UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT ON CONF'S
WITH MINISTRY AND NEMESIS MEMBERS LAUGHING, SO BLOODY CHILDISH.
I THINK ILL BE REMEMBER FOR OBVIOUSLY MY SUPPLYING TALENTS AND HOW
DEDICATED TO THE SCENE AND CRYSTAL I WAS. AND ALSO I THINK ALOT OF
PEOPLE WILL HOPEFULLY REMEMBER ALL THE WORK I PUT IN HELPING TO CREATE
THE VERY FIRST CONSOLE SCENE WHEN ME AND EXECUTIONER SYSOP OF
TREASURE ISLAND BBS (UK) TRIED TO GET EVERYONE TO STOCK SNES TITLES
AND MAKE CONF'S UP. IT TOOK ALOT OF PERSAUDING TO GET SYSOPS TO
CARRY THE TITLES AND ALSO MAKE THEM BELIEVE IT WAS ACTUALLY POSSIBLE
TO PIRATE A SNES ROM CARTRIDGE. ALSO I GOT ALOT OF THE YANKEES TO
SUPPORT THE PC-ENGINE AND GENESIS. THE ONLY CONSOLE SCENE I DID NOT
HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WAS THE SNK NEO-GEO SCENE.
What made you stop the scene activity ? (and do you remember when?)
THE AMIGA SCENE HAD MAJOR STARTED TO SHOW IT WAS GOING TO DIE. THEN
AFTER
A WHILE I GOT A JOB AND MY FIRST DAY AT WORK 3-4 ORIGINALS CAME OUT AND
WE HAD MY FAVOURITE SOURCE TO GET HOLD OF THEM. I GOT THEM AND SUPPLIED
THEM AND WE CRACKED I THINK 3 OUT OF THE 4 I THINK IT WAS ONE OF THE
F1 GAMES FROM DOMARK AND I CAN'T REMEMBER THE REST
Thinking back on the good old days, is there anything you regret?
I REGRET TURNING DOWN ALOT OF EQUIPMENT AND MONEY IN OFFERS FROM OTHER
GROUPS WHO WANTED ME TO SUPPLY THEM ORIGINALS, BUT AS I SAID BEFORE I
WAS NOT DOING IT FOR THAT. I ADORED ANGELS WHICH THEN BECAME CRYSTAL
AND WHEN NOMAD ETC LEFT I AND OTHERS WERE QUITE DOWN SO IT WAS A
PLEASURE TO BECOME PART OF PROBABLY THE BEST CRACKING GROUP ON THE
COMMODORE AMIGA. EVERY GROUP WAS GOOD BUT CRYSTAL I RECKON HAD THAT
LITTLE BIT EXTRA, EITHER IN TEAM WORK, RELIABLE CRACKS, SPIRITS, OR
OUR SHEER SPEED.

What was your favourite machine(s)?
The AMIGA was my most favourite machine. It was my real starter in the
scene and will live with me for as long as possible. I still have it
and it still works perfect. It still has all its original insides
and the original disk drive and PSU are perfect. Considering how much
this machine was used and how much the disk drive had to copy for
friends and contacts and also supplying originals all hours of the
morning, its incredible.
The SNES will always be my favourite console as that was the start of
my real home games playing. I had loads of mates in my house playing
and arguning to fuck over games like streetfighter II etc. We'd be
playing and screaming at each other at 3 o'clock in the morning with
my mom in the bedroom next door trying to get to sleep. It was great
fun and a excellent machine. The SNES gave me many memories i simply
cannot forget. No other machine no matter how powerful can beat the
SNES for its fun and pleasure it bought to me and others back then.
Infact its a sad thing to have to write about sommit that was so kewl
yet now DEAD and buried.

What are you doing nowadays ?
IF ANYTHING IM SPENDING A SHIT LOAD OF MY HARD EARNED DOSH HAHAHA.
IM STILL WORKING AT THE SAME JOB I GOT WHEN I HAD TO LEAVE THE AMIGA
SCENE. I NOW AM ADDICTED ON CARS LIKE I WAS ON COMPUTERS, NOBODY
THOUGHT I WOULD EVER PUT DOWN A KEYBOARD OR A JOYPAD BUT I HAVE.
SINCE AUGUST 1995 IVE BOUGHT 5 CARS 4 OF WHICH WERE BRAND NEW HAHAH
3 "N" REGS AND 1 "P" VAUHXALL/OPEL TIGRA 1.6I 16V'S. I HAD A
CERAMIC BLUE ONE FIRST AS MY VERY FIRST CAR TEHEHE I ORDERED IT
IN EASTER AND HAD NOT EVEN PASTED MY TEST HAHA, I PASSED MY TEST 2ND
TIME IN JULY 1995. AFTER 6 MONTHS I TOTALLY WORTE THE CAR OFF IN A
BIG CRASH I CAUSED. I FLIPPED THE CAR OVER ABOUT 3 TIMES AND SMASHED
A METAL BOLLARD IN THE DRIVERS DOOR AS I WAS SPINNING ACROSS THE PATH
AND THEN ABOUT 150 YARDS DOWN THE ROAD I SMASHED A SILVER BIRCH TREE
RIGHT OFF AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAIN ROAD. I LANDED WITH THE DRIVERS
SIDE DOWN. IT WAS VERY SCARY BUT ALL 5 OF US JUMPED OUT OF THE
PASSENGER DOOR ON TOP AND WAS NOT SCRATCHED HAHA IT WAS A BAD MEMORY.
BUT THATS WHAT YOU GET FOR DRIVING LIKE A NUTTER, THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU HANG AROUND WITH DICKS WHO JOYRIDE IN STOLEN CARS (NOT NO
MORE).
I THEN GOT ANOTHER CERAMIC BLUE ONE FROM MY INSURANCE AS A REPLACEMENT
AND THEN AFTER 3 MONTHS SWAPPED IT FOR A MTV SUMMERTIME LIMITED EDITION
PINEAPPLE YELLOW TIGRA. AFTER 7 MONTHS I DECIDED I WANTED A RED TIGRA
SO BOUGHT A BRAND NEW P REG HAHA. NOW IM DRIVING A OLDER "M" REG
VAUXHALL/OPEL CALIBRA TURBO 4X4 16V I BOUGHT IT FROM A T.V.R SPORTS
CAR DEALERSHIP IN BIRMINGHAM. I ALWAYS WANTED ONE OF THESE CARS AS
THEY LOOK THE BUSINESS EVEN AFTER 7 OR SO YEARS AND THE TURBO GOES
LIKE SNOT AND KANES A CRAP COSWORTH (0-60MPH 6.2SECS 155MPH MAX). SINCE
I BOUGHT IT IVE DECIDED IM GOING TO TRY AND GET IT INTO A U.K BOY
RACER STYLE MAGAZINE SUCH AS FAST CAR, MAX POWER, REVS IVE KITTED THE
CAR UP WITH A GERMAN TOURING CAR DTM STYLE EVOLUTION BODY KIT AND ALSO
SWAPPED THE TURBO GM WHEELS FOR OZ RACING POLARIS WHEELS AND CHANGED ALL
THE BRAKES (DISCS,PADS) FOR RACING BRAKES SUPPLIED BY VAUXHALL TUNER
COURTENAY TURBOS IN NORFOLK THEY SUPPLIED ME WITH BREMBO DISC AND PAGID
PERFORMANCE PADS. I HAVE A FEW MORE CHANGES TO DO THEN I WILL GET IT
SORTED INTO A MAGAZINE. THIS IS WHAT I DO WITH MY SPARE TIME APART FROM
SHAGGING AND SPENDING TIME WITH MY NEW GIRLFRIEND IVE BEEN SEEING NOW
FOR NEARLY 2 YEARS. I ALSO WATCH ALOT OF AMERICAN WRESTLING !! N.W.O !!
RULE.
Are you on the internet?
NO UNFORTUNATELY, I DID JOIN THE NET A WHILE AGO AND DUMPED IT, ALL
I WAS AFTER WAS SATELLITE HACKS FROM SOME FTP SITES, IT WAS TOO
BLOODY SLOW AND CRAP. I ONLY OWN A CRAP 386 LAPTOP PC (APART FROM
MY OLD AMIGA WHICHIS STORED) SO I CANT REALLY GET ON THE NET WITH
ALL THIS FLASH S/W FOR BROWSING SEE AS IT MOSTLY USES SHIT W95 ETC
MAYBE SOON!!! WHEN I DO ILL LOOK YOU UP AND OTHERS HAHAHA.
