Do you have any siblings?
17 months ago
I do. I have one younger brother who I love to pieces.
He has moved up to Liverpool now and has created a lovely home with his wife (Hannah), his dog and his soon to be child. I am very jealous of him because he has managed to get everything from his life that i had hoped i would have. I hope that doesnt make him feel bad but i am very proud of him.

Where did you go to school?

Southend High School For Boys, Southend-on-Sea SS0 0RG, UK
I was one of a few children to pass the eleven plus from our village primary school and have the pleasure of going to the Grammar School, SOuthend High School for Boys.
We often talk about whether or not I would go there again knowing what I know now and I think I would. I wouldnt say that i thoroughly enjoyed school but i am not sure any kid does. You dont realise how good it is until you have well and truly left.

May 25, 2005
e 2005 UEFA Champions League Final was the final match of the 2004–05 UEFA Champions League, Europe's primary club football competition. The showpiece event was contested between Liverpool of England and Milan of Italy at the Atatürk Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey on 25 May 2005. Liverpool, who had won the competition four times, were appearing in their sixth final, and their first since the Heysel Stadium disaster in 1985. Milan, who had won the competition six times, were appearing in their second final in three years and tenth overall.
Each club needed to progress through the group stage and knockout rounds to reach the final, playing 12 matches in total. Liverpool finished second in their group behind 2004 runners-up Monaco and subsequently beat Bayer Leverkusen, Juventus and Chelsea to progress to the final. Milan won their group ahead of Barcelona and faced Manchester United, Internazionale and PSV Eindhoven before reaching the final.
Milan were regarded as favourites before the match and took the lead within the first minute through captain Paolo Maldini. Milan striker Hernán Crespo added two more goals before half-time to make it 3–0. During the second half, in a stunning comeback, Liverpool scored three goals in six minutes to level the scores at 3–3, the goals coming courtesy of Steven Gerrard, Vladimír Šmicer and Xabi Alonso. The scores remained the same during extra time, and a penalty shootout was required to decide the champions. The score was 3–2 to Liverpool when Andriy Shevchenko's penalty was saved by Liverpool goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek. Thus Liverpool had won their fifth European Cup, were awarded the trophy permanently, and claimed the UEFA Badge of Honour in the process. Widely regarded as one of the greatest finals in the competition's history,[1][2][3] the match is often referred to as the "Miracle of Istanbul".[4][5][6]

Have you ever felt guilty?
17 months ago
Guilt is something that I struggle with a lot because I feel guilty for a lot of things I do. Not because they are all bad things, just because I worry a lot about the consequences of a lot of my actions.
Definition: having committed an offense, crime, violation, or wrong, especially against moral or penal law; justly subject to a certain accusation or penalty;
I dont commit crimes or offenses really so my only feeling of guilt will be where i feel that i have caused someone pain or angst. I am struggling to answer this one so I guess the answer will have to be No. Of course, now my friends will all write to me and ask me why I didnt feel guilty for this and guilty for that!

Have you ever broken or lost something that belonged to someone else?
18 months ago
Me and my brother used to play football in our lounge all the time. Most of the time we would use balloons but even those would manage to break mum;s ornaments etc. Dad became such a guru with the super glue that at times you wouldnt notice what we had or hadn't broken!
