Random fact:
My user name (which I also use for DJing and journalistic endeavours) was first applied to me by Ozzy.
Although I have never met him, a friend of mine that works for him and has been good enough to get literally dozens of CDs, records, DVDs and tour programmes signed for me, was asked more about this "Alex".
My friend told him a few things about me which included the fact that I am known for drinking Guinness (sometimes far more than I should) and he thought it was hilarious. The name stuck. I hadn't realised that was how some people that already knew me, but not my full name, already identified with me.
See, not my fault...
