In 2005 I played for Leicester Legends against Magna 73. I played in midfield with Paul Ramsey, Ali Mauchlen, and Tommy Williams.

I put a cross in and Jimmy Quinn nodded it in. True story.

I was out clubbing one night about 2001-2002 time in Canterbury, and ended up taking a lass back to a hotel there who as it turned out was in some minor one hit wonder band called Hepburn.  Quite tasty at the time as well.  Didnt go the whole way tho I recall, too pissed, and she wasnt that keen in the morning :unsure:
