Six years ago one of my workmates discovered that our boss had been in WSSOES ...

Ah yes. The international man of mystery that he is ...

More so as it includes the lovely vocals of Denise Roughan, formally of Look Blue Go Purple, 3D's and now drumming in Ghostclub (in London). She should have sung more in the 3D's.

You are my Cactus Cat ...

The presenter I am certain is Brent Hansen now (and perhaps formally) of MTV fame.

Sure is. He's a Public Address reader and I'm sure he'll be tickled to see this here. I love how everyone looks 22 years younger ...

Anyone know who the presenter is? At first from the voice-over I thought it sounded like Simon Morris- but then it didn't...
