Lonegunmen - Pays homeage to the three fells in The X Files. Conspiracey theories galore and computers etc.

I've used this tag on MB's since 1994. Although on one I used to use the name "Number 6" homeage to The Prisoner starring the late Patrick McGoohan.

Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

Harry Hotspur predates the arrival of 'Arry to the Lane by at least 18 months i should think.

Harry was the first alliterative name that came to me...absolutely no link to Bill Shake's Henry IV (although Percy and I do share a mother with the same first name).HarryHotspur2010-02-23 14:00:26

Originally taken from the name of Russell Brown's news comment on BFM, Hard News was a wind-up multi on Aus forums like TWG. Gradually it became less of a wind-up and more my general one and I've kept it ever since.

I think it dates from the old 'The World Game' forum so 2000 maybe ? It's been my only one since the end of the Kingz.

Skux was taken on bebo (back in those days) so 5kux was the next best alternative as the 5 looks like an S. I thought it was ingenious at the time, although no one agreed and people mistook it for 5 kux instead of 5kux.

Family had a small holding at Dairy Flat near Albany.

Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.
