Bet you were disappointed about the faller at #18 in that chart, but you still turned the song up to the Max. Not massively. The crush had existed ever since the 10 year old me felt stirrings of something I didn't fully understand after seeing her in the bath in the video to the wonderfully accurately titled I Should Be So Lucky. It didn't extend to unquestioning love of her music though - Shocked was pretty rubbish.

Glad you asked! Nothing at all to do with law enforcement, and I am in fact quite thin.
It all started in on a Sunday afternoon in June 1991, when, as a shy and impressionable 14 year old with a wide ranging singles collection and a heavy crush on Kylie Minogue, I was listening to the top 40 show on Radio 1 and I heard the following words:
"Now Sheriff Fatman started out in business as a granny farmer He was infamous for fifteen minutes then he appeared on Panorama"
And so began a genuine lifelong obsession with both indie music and left wing politics, although sadly the correct spelling of Sheriff still eluded me.
That's the long answer, the short one is that I'm named after a song by the mighty Carter USM.

Well, bored at work I have strayed into this area of Haven for the first time despite having been here for 5 years!
It looks distinctly like no one else ever comes here either, but just in case... Ask me anything!
