Something About Myself (The Home Team)
I always think it's nice to know a bit about the people who run Web sites: a few personal details - their
name, where they live, what sort of person they are and a bit about their background, perhaps - all these
things help to bring that person to life in your mind's eye. So I thought I'd give you a few details about
myself. (Note: these thumbnails do not open up into full-size images.)

• Good day to you. I am Reverend Ebenezer J Codpiece, the rector of a beautiful old village
church just outside Ipswich
(http://www.stivelschurch.uk.tc). I'm 52
years of age and my proudest claim is that I once helped establish a gerbil-breeding programme to feed
the starving people of Tierra del Fuego. I live with a young curate called Nathaniel Loombucket, a
Hungarian priest called Father Ivan Fellatio and Mrs Miggins the housekeeper. Because I am a
Christian, naturally I trust everyone and anyone, and my desire to help my fellow man in his hour of
need overrides any nagging suspicion I might have that someone who offers me £10,000,000 must be up to
something illegal or, at the very least, immoral.

• Hi, I'm Mandy Lifeboats and I live in Upper Twatt, Orkney. I've only had the Internet on
my computer for about a week so I've never heard of the 419 scam. I like receiving email and I
like helping people, especially all my new friends in Africa, but I'm totally useless where business
matters are concerned so I just have to hope that they'll be patient with me! I work at Fudge
Packers, the confectioners, in Coronation Street
(http://www.fudgepackers.eu.tc).

• I'm Heywood Jablomie, a graduate of Seattle University School of Law and currently senior
contracts negotiator for a timber company in Seattle. I've had some dodgy business dealings in
West Africa in the past including helping the former president of Liberia, Charles Taylor, to deplete
his country's forests in order to make a fast buck from the timber. In fact I'm very open to any
sort of illegal activity, so money-laundering propositions are an extremely good way of attracting
my attention.

• Hello, my name is Annie Trembler. I didn't really want to get involved in this game but
my old friend Mandy needed some help and somehow I ended up getting dragged into it! I work with
her at Fudge Packers - it's a boring job but we make up for it by meeting lots of exciting and
exotic people on the Internet and trying to help them with their problems!

• My name is Rula Baxter. I am a widow in my sixties, retired and living in Torquay with my
pussy Dildo and Peebly the dog opposite a shop which sells chocolate teapots. My husband Dilberry
died recently and left me independently wealthy and because I'm a mere female I'll believe absolutely
anything a man tells me, so not only can I afford to finance a dodgy money-laundering deal, I'm stupid
enough to fall for it as well. My good friend Mrs Miggins runs the local pie shop and her stupid
nephew Baldrick helps me out with my computer.

These are just the briefest personal details. If you'd like to learn more about me, visit the various
games featured on this Web site by clicking on the entries under
The Players in the menu bar on the left.
Obviously such popular people as Ebenezer, Mandy and Heywood are going to attract their fair share of
fan mail. In this section, I'll be publishing some of the nice things people have said and
written about me... err, I mean "them":-

Wrong on both counts there, buddy! In fact this one annoyed me so much that I complained to AOL
about it. A few days later, the address was no longer working.
