 Pinball Dreams and  Fantasies  (roll  on  Illusions!!).  They  are permanently
 installed on hard disk. Current hi-score on  Beat  Box is over 700 Million. If
 anyone needs the proof send me  a  stamp  and  disk,  also, tell me if ya done
 better!!

 Who's your best m8 on the scene?:
 Sarek/DeLite. As well as being a kewl m8, he is an excellant Gfx'er. Thanx for
 all the adverts m8!! We have had some good weekends, which he will agree with.
 Hi to Sarek's missus, Maxine. I'll visit soon!! I just get on my motorbike and
 travel the 130 or so miles. It takes  about  4 hours but then if I didn't take
 breaks every so often, I would have a very sore arse!!  [Harumph! - R-9!]

 What're your favourite types of music?:
 Most stuff except Take That, Rick Astley (WANKER!!) or any teeny bopper shite.

 Who're your favourite groups/artists?:
 Cypress Hill. Excellant rap  gig.  I  normally  hate  rap,  but  I listened to
 Cypress a few times in my m8s car and enjoyed it.


{
 What's your favourite film?:
 Bill and Ted films, Wayne's World films,  anything funny.  Wayne's World 2 has
 been the best film I've seen in ages. Arnie films like Terminator 2.

 Who's your favourite actor/actress?:
 Any bird who gets her tits  out.  Yeah?  Well,  I do rather like Erika Elaniak
 from Baywatch showing!!

 Who do you most hate?:
 That wanker from FAST, what's his name? [John  Loader - R-9!] And The big turd
 who invented MSDOS. It sux big time. Dos 6.2 is not too bad though.

 What's your favourite food and drink?:
 Chips and Chocolate are my fav  foods.  [Together?  - R-9!] Holsten Pils is my
 fave drink. Get shitfaced on it every  weekend. Last night was no exception. I
 was on a "session" and remember fuck  all except finding my bedroom carpet was
 covered in beer.




{
 What do you do outside the scene?:
 Work! I am unfortunate enough to work on an  IBM system 36, which is a sack of
 shit. They suck that much electricity that when they are powered on, they have
 to start each hard disk seperately or it would fuck the electricity supply up.
 Otherwise, I like to go farting around on  my motorbike on a weekend. It's ace
 fun pissing off car drivers stuck in traffic  jams on the coast road. I have a
 full license but only ride a Yamaha TZR125.

 What do you think of this interview so far?:
 Dunno, never done one before!! OK, I  suppose,  but  I still feel a bit pissed
 from last night.

 What's your favourite diskmag?:
 In no preference, these are the best.  They  all have there good and bad bits:
 Visual Intensity, Deadlock, Grapevine.

 What do you most hate?:
 Hangovers!!! I always seem to get  them  and  they  last  for most of the day.
 Cars. They always try to knock me off my bike. Women are the worst at this (no
 offence meant, just personal experience).

{
