              IT paid a lot more and was less dodgy*, so it's semi-pro since.

                  Busyness status: undisclosed, but from observation and experience I would guess at busier earlier

                  The delivery driver turns out to be Russian, not Polish; he was telling me about something on Russian TV, and once I'd realised, I noticed various aspects of his accent that correlated with the accents of the bad guys in The Equaliser

                  Edward Woodward version or the inferior reboot?

                      Nearest I got to musical fame was singing blues songs in a little club back in student days. Plus basic guitar strumming as backing to my friend's proper playing.

                      Been trying on and off to play guitar properly for 50 years now. Never get far before I give up again.
