    He looks more like a wise old fella, in black and white...which could mean your stuck in the past? Or have rugged good looks (as black and white photos are always more flatterring).

    francko's would be -
    macho
    mysterious
    hidden (depths perhaps? Or just a big beard?)
    I am the law.

    I just remember that at the age of 7 I had already decided who had to go to Heaven, who to the Purgatory and who to Hell, all drawn in a piece of paper that I was so happy to show to my teacher (not that she was so happy about it - I thought I was actually quite lenient to put her in the Purgatory and give her some hope).
    I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

      In my case I chose an appropriate nickname and then just found an avatar to match (although I did get that wrong first time).

        My avatar was well known to me in my childhood. His name was Amos. He was a local 'character', a nice (if somewhat eccentric) chap, and totally harmless. He worked as a shepherd mostly, and sometimes on the coal lorries.

        You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

                  That's not you? He does have that "Oxford" look.
                  Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                    I remember the good old days of this site when people used to moan about serious contractor related issues like house prices and immigration. How times have changed!?

                      People with no avatars clearly just dont want to share too much of themselves
