Been here exactly 21 years today! Only place I consider "home" these days, although I can't imagine living the rest of my life here, to be honest.

Anyone know if the old rascal Ronnie Biggs is still alive? Last I heard he returned to the UK to get medical treatment c/o Her Majesty's Prison service.
