Graduate of Manchester Polytechnic & University of York who is interested in almost everything except sport (apart from underwater tennis) and Big Brother except in its Orwellian sense. Currently unemployed, although I'm open to offers. I most recently worked for Virgin Mobile UK but gave it up as a bad job, quite literally; they are geared to the average rather than the exceptional, despite the guff they tell you.
Why "RodHullAndEmu"?
I wanted to edit as Firethorn or its Latin name Pyracantha but they were taken. So remembering Lee & Herring's "Fist of Fun" and that Rod Hull himself is conveniently, if unfortunately dead, although not Welsh, resolved to assume the identity on the basis that anybody these days is entitled to state "I'm the REAL Rod Hull". This may change. I would like to be Leeloominaï Lekatariba Lamina Tchaï Ekbat De Sebat, but then, who wouldn't?
