Both hobbies, Tobias.

I first started performing card tricks when I was about 9 years old. I'm still pretty handy with the odd bit of sleight-of-hand. My favourite tricks are "card to wallet" and Ed Marlo's "Ace Assembly."

I first got into photography at around the age of 17 or 18 years old, and my first serious camera was an Olympus OM-1n, mounted with a 50mm/f1.8 Zuiko lens. I own quite an extensive collection of old film camera and Legacy glass, but I'm mainly into digital, these days. My favourite camera is my Sony A7, and my favourite lens is a Zeiss 85mm "T" lens, although I have quite a few good ones.

It's a shame that you persist in taking the piss, because if you engage me on any of these subjects (I include guitar playing, and music), you would find me both knowledgeable and interesting.

How long have you had your Sony A7? Im thinking of buying one off a mate here.

Good Lord! I won't remember that!

I wasn't a World-beater, but I finished in a decent middle-of-the-pack time.

I remember the Isle of Wight Marathon being a killer. Only a handful of isotopic-drink stations along the course. The San Fran Marathon had isotopic-drinks every two miles.

If you're going to make it up, you could have at least googled an average time to make it sound more authentic <laugh>

Why don't you just admit that you're bullshitting now, before you end up humiliating yourself again.

I sorted some tickets for United for one of the lad's on this site's uncle a few months back and forgot to tell him my real name so the chaps who arrived were calling me Terry. I couldn't keep a straight face, I thought about explaining the whole situation but it just sounded ridiculous in my head so I just went along with it.

Explaining the concept of this forum to three blokes I'd never met, I had to go back and meet him again after the match as well to get the SC's back, so when I called him I had to just say "Hi mate it's Terry I'm here now".

Imagine trying to explain this site

Basically it's a bunch of lads and one or two lesbians who chat to each other about who's got the ****test manager, offer to fight each other in cages and participate in 771 page threads about Theresa May's haircut.

We don't use our real names cos we all genuinely hate each other's guts.

But here's ya tickets, I'm doing a favour for your nephew who has probably threatened to decapitate me at some point.
