Wii. It's actually mostly written. Just need to get a publisher and the motivation to get it finished.

Getting a book published is more difficult than ever. Most publishers want celebrity bollocks or tat like Shades of Shite
My friends used to and still call me Hoove, so its the first letter of my first name and my nick name.

Many years ago when my girl friend (now wife) came round I was always in the loft. Her brother started calling me Loftman. When I needed an email address I chose Loftman as a user name for an email forwarding outfit (Bigfoot - very good) & it's stuck ever since.
What were you doing up in the loft, I wonder - THAT is the question!
Did you have some scud mags up there?
