I've yet to have the pleasure of meeting viking.
I'd wager he's a total geezer, though. Good to have big mates, come in very handy sometimes: I was in McFuck in Blackpool a few years ago w/ my vast surfer buddy, Rick. A scally walks up and fairly demands a cigarette. I didn't like him from the off and said: sorry mate, you can have my first but not my last. At which he gets arsey and says he's gonna smack me for not complying w/ his rude demand. At which point Rick stands up making it clear he's 30Kg heavier and well over 1 foot taller. . . Towers over the spotty streak of - and says: he said no, fuck off - now! At which the loon belts out of the joint at lightspeed.
I love having big mates.
