| Cos I've got this in my back garden  Horse chestnut or "conker" tree, they're just starting to drop now. It was a novelty the first year we lived here, now it's a pain in the ass. |

 | I gave myself the nickname Auravir in highschool, thinking it meant "airman". Only later did I learn that "aura" means heaven, or breeze. I guess the name stuck.

| Pong was the first video game ever made back in the early 1970s, and the forerunner of all video games. Kind of stupid but that was the first thing that I thought for a username when I registered.

 | God I would play that game for hours. I don't think I could last a few minutes now  I made this nic up for "Talk City" back in 98 - it was the first combination with "Viking" that was not taken that I could find.

| Hi again Holly. Small World! I'm originally from the North East, near Newcastle upon Tyne, but I now live in Cheshire, just over the border from Staffordshire and only about 20 miles from Newcastle under Lime!
