Wasn't sure if it was one of those secrets that everyone knows about but doesn't say anything in case it spoils the surprise?



If it was - I didn't say anything ok <backs away slowly>

But aren't you all Jasper Ffforde?

I thought that there was only mrs. SkidMarks and myself who were real.

Skidmarks: I confess that I thought you and Mrs. Skidmarks were Jasper and Mari...

Mmm <squints hard, mimicking thought process> that means that everyone but Skidmarks, Mrs. Skidmarks and me, must be Jasper.

Unless we are all Jasper (including mrs. SkidMarks) and that no-one other than he/us/me/? uses this part of the Fforum?

But that comes down to whether you believe Jon when he says he is not Jasper....

That is easy. Jon has 3 letters (or 4 if you include the "h", which I do not) and Jasper has 6 unless you include the Fforde.

I'm pretty sure *I'm* not Jasper... Can never be 100 percent though...

Who is this Jasper you keep referring to?

(hopefully the double bluff will put them off)

Er..........*Ahem* 'Scuse me for interrupting. Just wanted to pop in and introduce myself. Although now I'm here, I'm not entirely sure what to say. I can confirm that I'm not Jasper.

I live in sunny Berkshire, and am somewhat disappointed that my village has so far failed to be mentioned in any of Mr Fforde's lovely books. I work for the NHS, ordering things for the local hospital.

In my spare time, I'm a backstage lurker and interferer with my local amdram group, I help with organising the local carnival, I get involved in alternate reality games, and I spend far too much time playing with (and too often, breaking) internet stuffs.

Some of my favourite things are: Jasper Fforde books (obviously!), Red Dwarf, The Rocky Horror Show, Terry Pratchet books, lolcats, and Blackadder.

So, that's me. Hello everyone :-)

Welcome!

Pull up a pie and sit by the burning pixie (Who apparently isn't around, but we'll just fudge around that for now) and someone will be along with cake shortly.

So, Myf helps organise the local carnival. Does Lycanthra Pod know?
Do you know about the Ffestival?

I think I'll post a proper intro here, with some actual details about myself. Like me name, age, address, picture, bank card details and college tutor group.

Alternatively I'll post things that won't end up in my doom.

I'm Michael, and I'm from West London, (UK, not Ontario... had that problem before on teh intartubes.)

Right, well, I like reading, football, drama, philosophy, pokémon (:D), teh intarnet, talking to peoples, being slightly nerdy, going on expeditions to intellectual high-spots like Portsmouth and Brighton, muzaks, etc.

I'm registered to about half a million forums. The main one is prolly AFC, Artemis Fowl Confidential, the biggest AF fansite in t'world, which I got a mod job on. Woop woop.

Vat else?

I just finished my AS levels, so I'll be going into Year 13 in September to study Philosophy, Eng. Lang and Lit and Classical Civilisation.

Only Philosophy is vaguely interesting really.

Anyway, that's the Jangrafess Present. As I begin to post on here you may come across Possible Jangrafesses, a bit like with Friday. Considering I usually sleep well past midday, but there's builders next door at the moment, so I'm awake. Damnit.
