I am win!

For a moment there I thought I was in trouble...

Down the pub, and the obligatory "Here are nice things I can say about you" from one of my colleagues, (My boss had just told me to "Be Good" (!) over the phone) and he pulls out a wad of printed web pages.

"We don't know a lot about you" (deliberate move on my part!) "so we looked on the web".

At this point my heart skips a beat and I worry he's found "me" on the Internet. Fortunately he hasn't, and comes out with a kinda-amusing list of other people who share my name.

Quite frankly the last thing I wanted was for my illustrious LRP career to be brought up for all to see - but I survived and now am the proud owner of some Waterstones vouchers and this, which is very very cool and goes with the Sith Infiltrator I got given when I left my last place.

Except I'm not really gone as next week I have the option of fitting in about 11 days of consultancy. As well as the toys I mentioned earlier I'm very very tempted with this...

I can't hide. There seem only to be two people named "Roz Horton"; The other one is connected with St Ann's Catholic Church in Nashville.

Hehe. There are worse things they could find out about you.;o)

I'm not sure I'm happy about this...

Better results with:

http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Oliver+Godby%22&btnG=Google+Search&hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1

(that's "Oliver Godby" rather than Oliver Godby.)

Sticking my name into google turned up this, which surprised me rather a lot.
It's me!
