10) Most embarrassing moment -

Hmm where do I start , I have so many , my mosts consistent one and it happens often , is whn I walk up behind someone whom I think I know and think I recognise them , tap 'em on the shoulder , abuse 'em and when they turn around , I am horrified to realise , they are not any one , I know at all.

I normally respond with such lines as , ' It was that person other there and point to some poor unsuspecting bastard walking away from me.

I suppose being locked out of my flat in my boxers at 0400 hrs in the morning , drunk , on a winters day , and being unable to raise my lodger , and then waking my upstairs neighbour , a conservative middle aged lady , to seek a sofa for the night.

Not once but twice.

11) Proudest achievement

Seeing Briggsy embrace the net and write for year , about NZ , even through the dark day's. She's a tough boss , and being involved in the whole project ( I expect a mention in despatches when this get's bloody published )

Kicking Drug's

Recovering from my ' Glitch ' in 96 and getting back on the bike and riding.

Standing up and being counted and refusing to be a rape ' victim ' for the rest of my life.

12) Saddest memory - Losing my dear dear flat mate & Couch Roadie Phil S. from cancer at such an early age.

13) Happiest memory - Seeing Briggsy get NZ after all the boring stories that I told her about. Paihia

14) Hero - Gene Simmons & Paul Stanley ( Kiss ) , Gary Numan , Ty Ray White & Jun Ya Kato ( For saving my life ) , Eric St.J Tanner QGM , RNLI B.M , Mummie











15) Buried or cremated ? Where ? Why ? - Cremated ( Far more sensible , I want no one to visit me and grieve for me in a fixed spot , I am a proud traveller and refuse to consider any where home. ( It's also cheaper )

Hector NZ in the surf , I want to breathe my last breath here ever , If I cannot do that there I want my to be scattered in the surf there.
