Profile:

I first visited Torbay by accident, when my spaceship had a malfunction (I spilt a pint of cider over the ships onboard management system). All was well when I finally touched down just outside of Torquay, with just a couple of dents to the near side wing.

After discovering that Torbay was not the capital of the world, I was greatly relieved to find the local inhabitants were very, very friendly, (I will come back to my extensive offspring later).

I set off to find the capital, and settled in Bristol, where I first discovered this world`s love of the thing we all call music. I had to tell a few fibs about who I was, but managed to get into school so I could find out more about this music thing. Once again the locals were great, and readily accepted me, although I think a few were a bit suspicious.

I strived to reach the very best standard of excellence of playing several musical instruments, drums, keyboards, guitar and trumpet, as I could possibly manage (to the standard of a six year old infant). I once again set out to find the capital of the world but now in a dance band.

While in London I discovered the great music and the legend that was the late great Billy Fury. He told stories about life and love through song. (brilliantly) Played some great gigs and met some great musical artists (but no name dropping ).

Started to feel a bit home sick, so set off once again. On route stopped in at a music festival just outside of Bristol, after enjoying the great bands playing that day and sampling the very best of the local cider, I was reminiscing with some old mates ( the Wurzles ) when I first saw what was to become the love of my life Dawny.

We both made a successful return to Torbay only to discover that my spaceship had been impounded and crushed by the local authorities. (they could not find a valid road licence ). I was encouraged  to enter a local talent competition  (got nowhere). It was here that I first met my mate marmite Phil. Better now known as Smashy.

It was a proud day when I was dragged sceaming from under my bed, to join Smashy on Riviera fm with Riviera Gold, and the rest as they say is history. Still loving the music.
