well sorry guys!!!
long long time ago
back in my younger days i liked a music track called 'thewaiting18' by the group called Amen. This in turn was a great track and fitting because I was waiting to be 18.
Then I turned 18 and people moaned that I was 18 and thus not 'thewaiting18' no more. So the name changed to 'Tw18'. much easier, and eventually it got dressed up as it got older to what you see now
Alternativly you could just call me Lee, but doesn't leave much to the imagination

So, Lee18 - have you got a rib, if so, what is it and where do you keep it? Maybe we could meet up?

Finally, someone with some taste round here. I'm seeing Amen on my birthday (1st Feb) in Manchester, when I too will be 18. "Finally" I'll be able to drink.
Didn't realise there was anyone into decent stuff on Jersey, never saw any when I was over there a few years back when we had friends over there. You might have known them actually, as they were teachers.
Welcome to RIBnet!
Matt
