The problem with the majority of people in this country is that when they're down the pub, or talking to each other on internet message boards, or whatever, they're all for schools and hospitals to have more money, and for poor and ill people to get a bit of help from the state.
Then it's...
If anyone's seen the newest edition of FHM, you might have spotted the piece about football hooligans which seems to be based largely on an interview with "Brighton-based casual Nick Harvey, 35".
It goes on about what the West Street Firm and their band of merrie men claim to get up to in town...
Gotta disagree there Perth. Canberra's a shithole... like an Aussie Milton Keynes but full of civil servants and drug addicts (though my cousins and my granny live there and they're all very nice people!)
And Perth is great -- a superbly under-rated city. Go to Rottnest Island and see the quokkas.
How odd... so was I. And I to have had to put up with a stream of "what? At the tap end?" jokes for my entire life. Moved to Brighton aged three cos my dad got a job in Seaford. Left aged eighteen to go to university in the North-west and never came back, although I have moved house five times...

I've got to fill in my first ever tax return before the end of September (cos I was registered self-employed for about eight months after leaving university). I've got a big box of receipts, invoices and payslips, and I'm really not that sure what to do...
That was played at my grandad's. But on some piss-poor little Casio keyboard type affair, while everyone sang. It sounded rubbish, and I was quite annoyed about it.
And she's also the ceremonial mayor of Brighton and Hove, meaning she's not elected by the townspeople but takes her turn to act as civic leader. Councillors take it in turns every year, I think, and it goes by order of service on the council.

According to the Guardian on June 25 2003:
"He owns the turreted Prescott Towers in his Hull East constituency, lives during the week in a grace-and-favour residence in Admiralty House[which is on Whitehall in central London], and at weekends and during holidays enjoys the run of Dorneywood...
Actually I was a south-west-terracer as well. (Although I was quite often found on the NW terrace and in the West Stand as well) I just mentioned the North Stand for effect.
