ABOUT ME

Ey up, I'm Ben. Or Burger to me mates. Fairly average bloke, likes football (both English and American), enjoys driving fast in my car (it's a beast), and listening to rock music. I like having a laugh and causing a bit of mischief, nothing too serious like. Generally just laid back and pretty chilled.

PHILOSOPHY

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
