Time Lapping at my feet
I'm walking in the sand
Showing those I meet
The treasures in my hand
Gathered from my life along the way
When the fullness of the sea
Comes in to cover me
I'll rise to the eternal holiday
...an everlasting holiday
Name: Martin
Age: 48
I have channelled my occasional energies in a variety of directions. I think that the variety is well reflected here. Much has happened in my life when the little red light wasn't running. So you won't find me glassblowing, farming midges or hitting any one in the mouth with a hammer (although all have occurred ... `allegedly`). What you see collected here comes from my time in
- `the greatest band you never heard` - Salt Solution
- A life sentence of hard labour in the IT section of Gases giant BOC
- My current 'other job' working as a Sumo wresting Gyoji in my own company `Sumo Experience`
- And my main dream-come-true job with Brookwood Community Church

Please check out these other websites that will give you more background about the important components of my life:

* www.SumoExperience.co.uk - the premier themed fat suit wresting party provider
* www.bcc-info.org.uk - Brookwood Community Church - a great bunch of switched-on, big-hearted people
* www.bcc-info.org.uk/saltsoluti on - the official Salt Solution website and a monument to a band ahead of their time
* www.myspace.com/saltsolution - Salt Solution's MySpace page full of goodies and samplers

Also you can buy `Arctic Frosties` the Salt Solution album at iTunes, Napster, eMusic, etc

And why Mervyn Sprocket? It was my nick name at school (it's a long story) and the fore runner to Salt Solution was a little band called `Mervyn Sprocket and the Crankshaft Assembly.

I just wanted to thank you so much for the Mackerel Part I,II, and III. They are true allegory of life and it's simple solution. I will recommend them to all my friends. If you have not entered them into a film contest you should. The whole world would appreciate and help change by your truth!
