Bio Stuff

Leaving school by mutual agreement (the school will keep quiet if he does), Dale went on to form the Thrash-Skiffle/Chamber Music Trio "The Wandering Wastrels." An A&R man from Virgin Records went on record as saying, "What the hell was that?" after TWW played their debut (and coincidently farewell) concert at the Dog & Hound Pub, Roman Ridge, Sheffield.

Even as TWW broke up, Dale decided that a career in espionage was the next logical step in his career (admittedly he'd been drinking quite heavily at the time). The following years are now classified and may one day be recorded in his memoirs once everyone involved is dead.

Now retired from public service, Dale sits behind a keyboard and plays Sudoku when he's avoiding doing the writing he's supposed to be doing at the time.

You can find more at:

but why you'd want to is beyond me.

Quiz Time
Two facts above are actually true. Can you work out which?
And a bonus question!
If you went back and read it again, ask yourself this... Don't you have anything better to do?

One last thing...
If I commit some faux pas here, y'know, like I don't add a comment where I should, or add one where I shouldn't; leave the toilet seat up; put cream in your coffee when you prefer it black. I apologize now. I often get a little frightened and confused in new on-line communities. It's nothing personal.

Hey Dale, I was wondering how you hadn't found your way to these parts yet. Good to see you here; grab a chair and have a cocktail!

I knew about it, I'm just lazy. More lies to make up to make myself sound interesting.

Thanks for the cocktail. Does it come with a white sandy tropical beach and appropriately azure water?

[ Posted by r_nelson on Feb 20th, 2007 7:02 PM ]...

No, but it does come with a miniature umbrella that will get in the way of your drinking it. The boss thinks it makes the drinks look "cute."

Welcome to Comic Space! Glad to see you left the basement long enough to find the place.
