    I got very drunk at an office party and did some very embarrassing things and all I remember is standing on one of the tables with Come On Eileen belting out - cant stand listening to it ever since :)

    Aaah - Dexys Midnight Runners! The trombonist from the band owns a house 3 doors down from us - we actually have a shared garden.

    My 15 minutes of fame now over :(

    Funny thing travelling in the Middle East - when I worked for a hotel company that had hotels in Israel and Arab states our people had to have two passports as you could not travel into an Arab state if you had an Israeli stamp on your passport
