Where am I to?
Wincanton, Zomerset.  Born Bradford, grew up in Worcester.  Part Dane parentage - my god what a mess....

Age?
33 - but only as old as the woman you feel - 25 in my case!

Money?
As little as possible.  I dabble in witchcraft - well, thats what the folks round these parts think, as I play with "them machines what think".  After a hard day repairing PCs (self emplyed) or doing part time IT tutoring, I get chased up the High Street by local folks with pitchforks yelling "burn the witch".

Other crap:
First LM in 91, went again in 92, 98, 99, 00, 02 and again this year.  As the name suggests, I run www.dreamracers.com - top fun with Fantasy F1, BTCC, & WRC  ;D

Originally from Guernsey in the Channel Islands, now live in Jersey (bigger of said Channel Isles)

36

A Supervisor in the Data Comms Engineering Dept for local Telecom Company

First Le Mans in 96 then 97, missed 98 cos of birth of nipper, 99, 00, 01, 02 and CAN'T WAIT FOR NEXT WEEK!!!!!

Got introduced to LM by my mate PK (Founder Member of Team Crapaud*, this will be his 8th year) and never looked back so to speak.  In 96 and 97 just used to turn up on race day, I now plan the trip, hence The Planman, and now the Team, now 18 strong,  take a whole six days!!  The wife saids "why do you need six days to watch a 24 hour race?"  I ask you - Does my wife understand me? - I think not!!


*A Crapaud is what Jersey people are called, it is with reference to the type of toad that can be found here in Jersey.  And just to keep the balance - A Donkey is what Guernsey people are called due to their stuborn nature.  Channel island history lesson over - see you at LM  ;D
