And then we ripped off his rubber mask, only to be confronted with the gurning vizzog of Joseph Stalin, saying "I'd have got away with it too if it hadn't been for you interfering kids".

he is probably a senior lecturer now on on the board of the 'adaptive personnel reconfiguration panel', eg, sacking people...

He's an unpretentious and bright working class bloke who managed to get into academia. The few times I've met him he's been very self-deprecating (blagged his way in, lecturing at the ex-poly instead of the red brick etc). I know you're taking the piss, but from what I gather he's been fairly active against public sector job cuts, and outside of the crap and irrelevant anarchist scene, which he takes the piss out of, or did do when I met him and unfortunately some of his former comrades, one of whom turned up to a student pub on his BMX.

Those were the days. Morecambe 2002. After college we used to get pissed on crap lager sold at the Black Bull pub across from Poulton Road . Once there was one of those toy parrots on a perch with a motion sensor at the bar, the ones you can speak into and it will repeat whatever you say. Kids were getting it to say swear words.
