My name is Phil and I live in Surrey!

I was born in Croydon and still live not too far away but as my postal address is Surrey and not a Greater London one, Surrey sounds a bit more classy than Croydon.

I think Watford Wobble contemplated rebranding himself when he moved. I wonder if I would do the same or stick to my origins.

Old Croc
It was my hash name (still is I suppose). When I hashed overseas I wore a hat that was like Crocodile Dundee - so when I was given a hash name someone suggested that it should be Crocodile Dundee but some wag shouted out more like an old croc - so that stuck!

It's a long story going back to 2001 when I found the RW US site (I didn't know there was a UK site at the time) and wasn't going to let anyone on there have reason to suspect that I wasn't a bloke and talk down to me. (If you think that's not A Thing, go and hang around the Letsrun forums for five minutes.) VP, then aged 7, was into dinosaurs at the time. A year or two earlier and I might have been Boco the Diseasel.
