There is no Markjay... it was a mate's email address I used when I registered with V X O N just to ask a quick question (I don't normally give my own work email online), I couldn't think of a handle to make up so I just put in the first thing that came to my mind which was my mate's email address I was using...

I was in a hurry at the time and had no intention of spending any longer than needed on the site to get the answer to my question (which was did Vx really change the facelift cambelt change interval from 80jk to 40k, or was the Vx dealer just fishing for business?). That was a year and a half ago, the rest is history... when OOF was created, I kept the handle because other people that came over from V X O N already knew me by it.



Sorry, do we know you? ::)

Sorry AA, but I am not going to stoop down to this childish immature behaviour, so I have only one thing to say to you:

I've got a sunroof!

Mine is easy - It's my real name and it came from my mum and dad...... Somehow that just doesn't have the same impact as some of the others does it??  :'(

About 11 years ago at school I was in a band called Rad Mamba! There was a rival band who must have offended us in some way as we wanted to set the Rad Mamba mafia on them - shortened to mambafia. Does that all sound a bit odd? :-/
