Boys From The 'Stoke

I present, for your viewing pleasure, those gentlemen who I know from the pikey satellite town of Basingstoke, nestling in a rather nondescript part of Hampshire. They have all suffered as I have suffered, from living in a town full of roundabouts and drunken pub violence, wearing yellow Ben Sherman shirts and drinking Becks.


Neil, Ward and Stu, on holiday round Bournemouth way in the summer of '99.	Relaxing outside Mr. Gray's legendary camper van, after a few overs on the beach. Bowling, Bowling!	Breaking from tradition, Neil encourages the youngsters to "try a Mitsubishi..."	The view over Poole marina.

SJ and Adam Mould tucking into Doughnuts pre-basketball.	The McDonalds Games at Wembley Arena, between the Houston Rockets and the Orlando Magic.	On the train on the way home, sporting speculative facial hair.	McSteen the Elder (left) and McSteen the younger (right) at Andy's graduation.

With Andy McSteen watching the RWC Trophy.	Andy, Neil and Stuart McGhee at Neil's birthday, trying to be cool.	Fuzzy, the largest, fattest cat in the whole world, taking a well earned kip.	Scout nesting quietly in my shoulder pads.
