Real name: Mike

Based in Bursledon. Southampton Uni Maths grad, 1986. Now working in I.T. and studying Media Music in my spare time.

xkcd fan since the first mention on BoingBoing in 2005. I love random fun stuff like this.

Very pleased to have popped my hashing cherry on 2008-06-28 50 -1, and look forward to doing a slightly more difficult second hash - the first one was very pleasant but just a little too easy...!

My thanks to Sermoa for adding my ribbons this first time around! Hopefully I'll be able to do that myself now that I've got to grips with the basics of mediawiki.

2009-07-17 Couch Potato...

I have just worked out that at my latitude of 50 degrees, assuming my house includes its land area of about 30x40m, there is a 1 in 6.7 million chance of getting a couch potato award on a given day. Not good odds, though admittedly a little better than the Lotto jackpot :|

Planned hashes

• 2009-07-18 50 -1: Between Hambledon and Clanfield

Successful hashes

• 2009-06-28 50 -1: Hedge End recreation ground.
