| Bio: |
| I was born in a slum in 1988 to a 14 year old prostitute who exchanged me for a packet of minstrels back in 1992. I spent the next four years learning my ABC's and 123's from the cardboard boxes and newspaper that my new 'parents' used to sleep me. At aged 8 I escaped and went to London, very much like Oliver Twist, only it wasn't the 1860's and I didn't become a pickpocket for a Jewish paedophile. I did become a swarthy little git, though, making the best of the things that I found, things that the everyday folk left behind (I lived in Wimbledon). At 14 I was hired by Alan Sugar due to my exceptional entrepreneurial skills, but I was subsequently sacked a year later for having my 'fingers in the tills'. Since then I have been making my living as a Harry Potter impersonator during the day, and a kick-ass-secret-ninja in the evenings. Recently I have been reunited with my long lost sister, who fell down a well aged 2, and was presumed dead. Miraculously she survived to tell the tale. |
