Dollar to Euro exchange rate is very prohibitive to me lending you money.

So is being in college.


Here, out of all of us, I'm probably the wealthiest (not boasting, just a fair assumption), so I'll just pay for the ice cream myself.

I'm aware of that and I agree. I just thought this was a good possibility to post these Sutil/dolphin photos... ;)

If you were from Ireland the very mention of 'Blackrock College' would explain the wealth thing.

Looks like its the Irish equivalent of Eton or Harrow, so yeah that would suggest you might have a few euros in your back pocket. Good thing I've enjoyed your posts before, otherwise I'd think your a right posh knob. Going to a middle class school from a lower middle/working class background has instilled that attitude in me. I'm not proud of it, but putting with up Tory loving/middle class poshos who snivel at everything new or different is bloody annoying and frustrating.

I went to the worst middle and high schools in the entire state of Oregon. People at the University of Oregon who ask me where I'm from usually give me the response of, "ooh, I'm so sorry..."

I get that when I tell people what primary school I went to, though everyone was nice there and I had a good time so I generally tell them to shut it. Once when I told someone where I live he called it a "Ghetto". Typical.

Proof that posing with dolphins has nothing to do with exploiting one's gender and sex-appeal:

I remember one time Danica and Milka Duno got into an almost fight after a crash, does that count?

Before going to boarding school, I went to school, and was in the same class, as this guy.

That's a guddun.

BOD is God.

Live Aid guy.

Inventor of Ireland

Also I have connections to two of Ireland's three F1 drivers, my brother's neighbour was once Derek Daly, and he knows Tommy Byrne's brother.

Well, it was either him, a baseball player, or one of two American soldiers who were kidnapped and beheaded in Iraq. You see why I chose River Phoenix now, right?

Is this footballer famous? I don't know footballers really. He went to my school and signed my shirt when I left (not as a footballer, of course, just in the way that everyone signs your shirt when you leave).

Not really, everyone seems to have gone to the same school as someone famous. I went to the same school as Mike Skinner, from The Streets, not the racing driver.

Only, it seems I didn't! I went to two secondary schools, and neither have famous alumni... so I'm hoping it'll be me! :)

(I nearly went to the same school as Sir Isaac Newton, which would have been quite a thing. But I didn't).

I got nothing either. But seeing as I was brought up in what could be the Scottish version to the town in the film Hot Fuzz, it explains a lot (Hell, there was even a shop manager that looked similar to Timothy Dalton!)

I was glad to escape

Woo, I live near Epsom (Chessington)! It's funny though because I live in Kingston borough, and Epsom and Richmond boroughs are right next door and are infinitely more posh.

FYI, my school was Southborough Boys School, and I don't think anyone who's gone there has gone on to do anything of note (there was one guy who presented on CBBC for a couple of months, but that didn't go anywhere). I was good enough to have gone to Tiffins (usually in the top 100 high schools in the country), but my parents didn't want me to go to a snobbish school, and when I went to the 6th form open evening they were being selective about which cars to let into the school car park.

Well, after Epsom, I then went to Kingston Uni to study French and Philosophy, and discovered Tiffins was a local posh state school... Now living at home with my parents but still have plans to move back to the area as that is where all my friends have lingered... Actually lived in Berrylands, Surbiton as a student, home to the TV series, The Good Life...

If Chris Evans ever does a Top Tenuous for Prince on his Radio 2 breakfast show, that would definately be a contender. :D
