I remember meeting a man called Paul (Craven? not sure) in there a few years back who mopped it up in an afternoon. He wasn't over 50 but no little hopo. Never seen anyone attempt such a problem with so much stamina to work the thing out his way.

What about Shawna whatshername? She dispatched it in about half an hour (not half an hour from birth, but from first feeling the holds).

Shauna's sixteen.

Did he have a ridiculous 80's buffond hair-do?

Paul Craven is a rep for Ben (moon) these days. Thoroughly nice chap, although the last time I saw him he had terrible coffee breath!

Hardly surprising if it was Paul, he has always been the complete wad.
