    Lets put a key on a string and fly a kite in a thunderstorm. Not a bad Idea. You know...if you had something to prove.

    Yea Panama, It's the big pond. Not quite as cold as Superior but will kill you none the less if you fall in her favor. Best to get your breath and wade in slowly, gingerly, then you may go under into to her clear blue depths.

    One legend has it that Neverna comes from the letters in my real name.

    Neville Everard Royston Nigel Asquith

    Another legend claims that it is made up of the English word Never and the Thai particle นะ .. Never + นะ = Neverna

    My current avatar is a picture I found on the internet. I don't know who she is. I just liked the picture at the time I came across it. All my avatars (bar one, I think) have been of females wearing something on their head. For a few years, I changed avatars to suit my mood at the time but I have had the current one the longest. I think she's a keeper.

    Yes. I'm actually thinking of changing one of my middle names - Nigel. I'm not sure to what yet, perhaps Nicolas, Norman, Nazareth or Noel. They all seem to be good choices.

    I used this nic name (Loy Toy) when entering a bar to keep the angels at bay.

    Loy Toy in Thai means useless, broken and horrible so it worked well.

    As I am the world's premier bucket maker and John Frusciante is my favourite guitarist I used the picture of him wearing my buckets as my avatar.

    I grew up near the Mendip Hills in Somerset, UK.

    I finally joined this forum a few months ago to answer a guy who was asking about having a dog put down in Thailand - I'd been lurking as a guest for a long time. The adidogs avatar seemed appropriate and since then most of my posts seem to be about dogs anyway.

    I actually have an adidogs T-shirt that I wear if we're going out somewhere nice.

    I originally went with a nick that was my first name over on the other channel, then decided to change to something else, but still wanted to know it was me... so TizMe,

    The avatar looks like my GF...
    (I wish)


    It was a challenge to shrink the original down to within the maximum size allowed.

    "The loons, they're calling our names."

    "He's like an old lion, just wants to prove he can still roar."

    My aunt took me to see On Golden Pond. Those two lines I hope I always remember. Reminds me of TD in a way. Golden.
    When I stepped out from the darkness into the light from the theater house I had only two things on my mind, Paul Newman and a ride home....

    S.E. Hinton, The OutSiders.

    Fish?
