the man had done more road miles than iggy pop crossed with hunter s thompson. tuna was late thirties looking like he was going on 50. the man's body was coming apart at the seams. no drink too long no burger too big.

he'd done the whole nine yards when it came to trading. you name it, he'd scummed it. he became a fixture in the btp options for a helluva time giving us lots of free cash...

.....especially one monday when he walked in the pit and fierced us all up for the straddle...after we'd subdued our ''tuuuunnnnaaaaaaaaa'' chant we quoted it, he does a double take on his fat wad of trading sheets and lifts us all our size...christmas had come early that year, we all asked him did he want to double, so he did, being tuna.

at that point the legends that was puppy and wildman benevolantly whispered in his ear that perhaps he might consider printing out some new trading sheets with todays monday trading date on as opposed to last thursdays date when he was last at work...who says eyes cant pop out of a head??

following some choice cursing and swearing and promises we were all going to die by stabbings, tuna walked off several million lira lighter......to go and get it on again down the pub.........

Was that true that Tuna invited another trader round his house for dinner and decided to show the guy a video of himself having Lipo suction??

No but heard similar story relating to the College Press (the bar part obviously, not the bit where you buy your bacon butties in the mornings)

Once your rubber band is stretched to such a limit that it made to snap, your entire view of the world is made to change, and you cannot go back.

That is why my reputation for selective ferocity is justified.

LOL - Gosh Albert, I bet there are many people quivering in fear at the prospect of incurring your 'displeasure'.

"Once your rubber band is stretched to such a limit that it is made to snap your entire world is made to change and you cannot go back"

LOL - Old Albert is obviously just a Victor Meldrew clone. Hey Albie, you should also checkout your syntax - there should never be a comma preceding 'and' in a sentence. AND is a conjunction wheras a COMMA is a mark of separation in a sentence. You obviously failed O Level English Language

"Thats why my reputation for selective ferocity is justified"

Hahaha - What a macho man he is - just beware of his 'selective ferocity'
