Caption time…

I guess now you’ve all had a chance to see my photo on the site. It’s a change from the old photo I was using and I’ve already had a few comments from friends. One person said I looked like a convict, while another said I should have a caption underneath it like “Which bastard spilt my pint?”

So in the spirit of trying to cheer-up “after that hopeless-yet-bloody-lucky display by England at the weekend”, I’ve decided to run a caption competition, or rather I’m open to any captions you think are appropriate.

To be honest I’m not sure about the photo – it’s a bit moody and dark, but then The Secret War is a little like that too, so maybe it’s the right one. Is this the face of someone you wouldn’t want to meet down a darkened alley? Or the face of someone who would tell you a rather unnerving story that would keep you up all night?

I know I’m probably opening myself up here for a lot of stick, but hey, might as well get it over and done with now.

Caption away, good people!
