Lead guitarist with the backyard babies. Just thought it was the coolest name to be christened tbh.

Goodshape · 10-06-2005 3:31pm

People called me Goodshape on account of my getting far too drunk and falling down / throwing up in my younger days. Not many people in Real Life call me that anymore.

Charming, no?

frodi · 10-06-2005 5:02pm

It pre-dates boards. From Lord of the Rings, I thought that Frodo was too naff so I changed it to Frodi. Later I found that Frodi came originally from Norse mythology. Frodi was the father of Cormac in Norse sagas. (Guess what one of my sons name is...no planned connection) Also one of the Faroese footballers on Wednsday was called Frodi. I'm famous at last.

A funny story that was made up to cover for my absence when my coach forgot how many miles I was doing, so my friends told him that I had been gang raped by Squirrels, that and I have just had a fear of them.
