History

we'll we do have one... but doesn't everyone!

for some time now we haven't bothered to have this section on the website but we've caved into the pressure...

don't for a second think that we are trying to delude you, or ourselves, into thinking there was some kind of demand from the public - that's not so.

actually we just wanted to crush the ever growing malicious whispers... and categorically, in black and white, state for the record that we are not (despite our devilishly good looks and uncannily fluid stage moves) some hand-picked, manufactured, choreographed & styled boy-band in the pay of some Louis Walsh style svengali.

the actual telling of how we formed is another story... it's probably better (certainly safer) if you just draw your own conclusions... but to help you on your mental way - the following facts may act as sign posts!

Paul had a part-time job as a fish salesman

John had a stint selling hats

Stu spent many years in full-time employ as a paint-sprayer despite being clinically colour blind.

One speaks fluent french, one can juggle, one has had cosmetic surgery.

Two have tattoos, one is not allowed to choose his own clothes, all are punctual to the point of psychosis
